RE: [PHP-DB] resource id#2 - ????

2002-06-12 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

The quick answer is that that is what it's supposed to return...  that's all
the result is.  A nicer, longer answer is to give you some of my code so you
can see one way that you actually get the data out (I use sybase_fetch_row,
but you can also use db_fetch_array which returns an associated array or
something - check the manual):

$dataResult = sybase_query($sql);
while ($array_ref = sybase_fetch_row($dataResult)) {
if ($array_ref[4] == 1) {
if ($array_ref[0] == $male ) {  
$left[$i] = $array_ref[2];
$names[$i] = $array_ref[3];
$ages[$i] = $array_ref[1];
$i++;   
}
elseif ($array_ref[0] == $female ) { 
$right[$j] = $array_ref[2];
$j++;
}
}
}//while

Last note - the index of the array ref refers to something in your SQL
starting with 0 (so my sql started with select sex...)

[PHP-DB] RE: [PHP] Querying for MAX

is

select MAX(column name)

what you are looking for?  I know it works on numeric columns, I'm not sure
if it works on non-numbers, you'd have to look it up in a SQL Tutorial

affiliate members with ID going from 1 to 10, get the query to know that the

You could probably use:

RE: [PHP-DB] how to pull array out?

2002-05-30 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

OK, then.  Here's an example.  I understand that this is confusing (it took
me quite some time to get my first db example working correctly), but there
are normally examples on PHP.net if you look up the functions that Jason
referred you to.  If those didn't help I don't know how much help mine will
be, but at least I kind of explain it :-)

It's using Sybase, but the commands should be very similar to those for
other ones (I think all that changes is the first part).

For mine, here's how I set up $sql:
$countySql = SELECT a.Sex, a.AgeForCSR, a.Pop, b.strAgeForCSRDescription, 1
as id from tblPopCounty a, tlkpAgeForCSR b where a.StateFIPS = '$state' and
a.CountyFIPS = '$county' and a.Race = '$race' and a.$sqlAge and
a.AgeForCSR=b.AgeForCSR;

$stateSql =  SELECT a.Sex, a.AgeForCSR, a.Pop, b.strAgeForCSRDescription, 2
as id from tblPopState a,  tlkpAgeForCSR b where a.StateFIPS = '$state' and
a.Race='00' and a.$sqlAge and a.AgeForCSR=b.AgeForCSR;

$sql = $countySql .  UNION  . $stateSql;


so,
$array_ref[0] = Sex
$array_ref[1] = AgeForCSR
$array_ref[2] = Pop
$array_ref[3] = strAgeForCSRDescription
$array_ref[4] = id


***Here's where I actually read the rows that are identified by the result
and divide them up into 4 arrayes, based on gender and id***
$dataResult = sybase_query($sql);
while ($array_ref = sybase_fetch_row($dataResult)) {
//foreach ($a_row as $array_ref) { *** if you leave that in, you get
each item, not each row***
//print $array_ref . BR;
if ($array_ref[4] == 1) {
if ($array_ref[0] == $male ) {  
$left[$i] = $array_ref[2];
$names[$i] = $array_ref[3];
$ages[$i] = $array_ref[1];
$i++;   
}
elseif ($array_ref[0] == $female ) { 
$right[$j] = $array_ref[2];
$j++;
}
}
elseif ($array_ref[4]==2) {
if ($array_ref[0] == $male ) {  
$left2[$k] = $array_ref[2];
$names2[$k] = $array_ref[3];
$ages2[$k] = $array_ref[1];
$k++;   
}
elseif ($array_ref[0] == $female ) { 
$right2[$l] = $array_ref[2];
$l++;
}
}//elseif id==2

  It only echoes the resource id, any help or examples would be

 I repeat, mysql_query() returns a resource-id which you need to feed

 mysql_fetch_array() to get the actual record.

I could be missing something, but it looks like you are using the result of
the mysql_query as the actual result.  It actually returns some weird
identifier.  To access the real info you'd have to use something like
mysql_fetch_array to get it.

 I'm writing some content management scripts for an online magazine. Many
 articles are formatted in a similar way, but some have a unique page
 layout
 that includes grids of photos, tables, etc.
 
 I'm not sure if the best way to store content is in a database so it can
 be
 flowed into an article template, or to simply lay out the page as HTML,
 surrounding it with a simple include(header.php) and
 include(footer.php)
 for header/footer HTML and graphics. For articles that require things like
 tables, it would be a pain to have to write this HTML by hand or lay it
 out
 in Dreamweaver then copy and past the code into the database field (using
 an
 Admin web form). 
 
 Or, is it prudent to set up a custom table in the databse for each type of
 content so that a matching template can be used to format the pages
 properly
 without having to include all the HTML in the database with the content
 itself?
 
 Hope this makes some sense. Just trying to figure out the best way to
 tackle
 this. All input is appreciated!

it if you asked them to write in FrontPage, but that would give you what you
need too.

If these ideas don't work you may want to browse other magazines online (if
you go to fashion ones then they should have the tables you talked about).
You could try magazines like Cosmo, Seventeen, etc. and see if you can get
any feel for what they are developing in.  I only came up with the PDFs
because one site I go to uses them and we use them for some of our web
publications for the NCI.

Good luck!

RE: [PHP-DB] Dynamic Drop Down Box

2002-03-06 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

If they want two pages they wouldn't need JS though - just submit and use
that in your second query to populate drop-down #2.  I had assumed that they
wanted it on the same page - which is definitely cooler :-)  Good point
though - I should have asked which way they wanted to do it.  I suppose if
you really wanted to be able to say your site used JS you could still use it
to set a hidden value in the form and submit it to the next page that way.

RE: [PHP-DB] Re: multiple select statements

2002-03-05 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

I'd try building it piece by piece if you do have too many combinations -
(I'm not promising efficiency, but I do something similar to this in one of
my programs and it works).

Have vars for each type of data:

$firstName = ;
$lastName = ; etc.

Then you can set each one based on the selection boxes you have 

if ($firstNameComboValue  select one) 
$firstName = $firstNameComboValue;

From there you can build your SQL statement:

$criteria = ;
if ($firstName  ) 
$criteria .= '$firstName'; (I can't remember if PHP needs the
single quotes or not but perl does)
... for each variable (making sure you put in AND between each one).

Then you can do:

$sql = SELECT whatever from table WHERE $criteria;

I do my db programming in perl so this is probably a horrible mix of the
two, but at least it will give you an idea for somewhere you could start.

You could also use booleans to determine if each one has been set, but that
would probably just be an extra step that you wouldn't need unless you want
to use them somewhere else too.

Good luck!

 Hi there :)
 
 You could construct seperate queries for every possible combination of
 search provided you don't have a huge number of search criteria (form
 elements for your search)
 .
 I did this just recently for a friend finder site. In the search the user
 has four fields that are automatically included in the search and three
 more
 that are optional
 
 I built the sql queries based on every combination of the three optional
 search criterias. Since there are three optional search criterias the
 number
 of queries to be built is 8 to compensate for every combination.
 
 This is one way to do it anyway:)
 
 Hope this helps you out, Joe :)

This can be done with JavaScript - I don't know if you can do it in PHP.  I
had a site where I wanted to let people compare data for two states so based
on the first state that was chosen I populated the compare with the other
states.  If you want me to send you my code I can.  It uses another file too
- that one is a big JS array with all of the states in it.  I also do one
that populates a county box based upon a state.

Try doing a select distinct on that field and then loop through the results,

I don't have the exact code anymore because we stopped doing it that way,

RE: [PHP-DB] Passing contents of array on as variables...

2002-02-25 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

Jas,

I've run into the same kind of problem with the site I'm doing for work.  

My first solution was to use the query string to pass contents of an array
(array[0]array[1]...) but I got to the point where I was passing too much
information and it wouldn't work.  Now I use hidden data in my form and I
dynamically name the fields in a loop.  Then in the next page I use the
get_post_vars and use substring so I can say if the first part of the var
name is my array name then I get the position from the next part of the var
name (array0, array1...) and use that position to put it in the new array.  

I definitely wouldn't assume it's the cleanest way to do it, but I didn't
want to use sessions (if they'd even work) and the query string had some
problems with confidential data anyway (the users can see it and we aren't
supposed to display data in certain situations).

If you'd like to go with this method and want some pointers let me know and
I'll send you some of my code.

Good luck!

[PHP-DB] inserting a bitmap into an Image

2002-02-14 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

Does anyone know how to put a bitmap into an Image?  I need to have a filled
circle in a graph.  This shouldn't be a problem except we have an older
version of GD (and our network guy is overworked so it would take a few
weeks to get a newer version installed) and the graph has gridlines.  If I
make a circle and then fill it it will fill up to a gridline but leave the
rest of the circle empty.  I was hoping to get a filled circle file and use
that in my Image but I can't find anything on PHP.net.

I'd really appreciate any ideas you might have!

Thanks!

RE: [PHP-DB] How to insert to DB from txt??? Please help

2002-01-07 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

That's why I skipped the regular expression and irregular expression and
grep stuff and used explode :-)  All it takes is the string and the
delimiter and it feeds you back an array.  I've been using it to pass
parameters in the $QUERY_STRING when I don't use $HTTP_POST_VARS.  You can
even have strings within it that are delimited by something else.  I put
everything together with s and then if there's a group of things in there
that I want to keep together I use @.  It works well.

Does this answer your question?  I'm still new to PHP (I think I started in
Oct. or Nov.) but that's basically all I've been doing since then.  That's
why I've tried to stick with the methods that make the most sense and cut

 SELECT *
 FROM some_database
 WHERE some_column  
 
 I had tried
 
 WHERE some_column  NULL but that didn't work.

RE: [PHP-DB] Passing parameter in Paging

2001-12-28 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

You could make hidden vars in your HTML page (in a form that submits to your
PHP), alter their values in the JS, and then when you submit to the PHP it
will have those.  Then you can use $HTTP_POST_VARS to access the variables
from inside the PHP.  There might be an easier way, but I know this way
works.

  2. If you don't want to use images either, you may use regular links

 Subject:  [PHP-DB] while...if statements???
 
 Does anyone know why this isn't working?? What I am trying to do is
 display 
 photos from a database based on each month. This part works fine when I
 set 
 it to the current month of December (today) as that is when I uploaded the
 
 photos.
 
 However, when I manually set the date to a month that has no photos in it,
 
 I want it to echo the No Animals string belowThis is only working 
 half-way...meaning that it will display a blank page with nothing on it 
 instead of actually echoing the No Animals string
 
 Can anyone please help?? Is there really a way to have a while...if 
 statement
 
 
 
 CODE=
 ?
 $connection = mysql_connect($hostname, $user, $pass) or die (Unable to 
 connect!);
 $query = SELECT petname, petDesc, petpicture FROM petinfo WHERE petmonth
 = 
 'Apr';
 $result = mysql_db_query($database, $query, $connection) or die (Error in
 
 query: $query.  . mysql_error());
 
 while (list($pet_name, $pet_Desc, $pet_picture) =
 mysql_fetch_row($result))
   {
   if ($pet_picture == )

   echo No Animals have been posted for $date at this moment.

RE: [PHP-DB] Use php to plot graph.

2001-12-03 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

I'm working on a project right now where we call PHP from within an HTML
page, send it vars using a POST method, and then use that to draw a graph.
We're drawing bar graphs now but one of my coworkers did a line graph.  You
call the PHP as an img src tag and have PHP return a .png.  We used the
SAMS Teach Yourself PHP4 in 24 Hours book - it's Hour 14 where you do all
sorts of stuff with images.

It's not easy - you draw each line based on the endpoints and you can fill
rectangles and stuff, but the end result can be pretty impressive.

I'd send you my graph but it's on a development website that's password
protected.  If you're really interested I could save the image and download
it to you.

RE: [PHP-DB] What's wrong with my function? :(

2001-10-30 Thread Leotta, Natalie (NCI/IMS)

I'm new to PHP but one thing I think might be happening is that maybe the
changes aren't being made to a global (I'm a Java programmer) $sql so they
aren't being kept.  Does it actually break or is it not appending the
additional string?  I'd try printing out the $sql and see what you're
getting - possibly at different stages of the program - like before and
after you call your function.

Good luck!

 Please could some take a look at this code and tell me why when I take my

 call the function from they work, but as soon as I replace them with the
