Re: [PHP-DB] Date help needed

No, it's actually very easy to do the autocomplete once you get the hang of 
it. Actually the way I've done it is to populate a multi-select box but you 
could also use a DIV and write out the values

Dump the email addresses as an XML file (generate this dynamically) then 
use XSLT to read out matching rows on each keyup ... basically you filter 
the XML file each time till you get down to one value

Yes, it's javascript but it works really well as long as you have some 
control over your client browser (in the case of your boss, probably IE but 
it can be made to work in mozilla / firefox too)

Mail me offlist if you want a working example.
Cheers - Neil

One thing he wanted which I didn't know how to do (Javascript I guess which
I don't know much about) was to preload a database of email address, and as
he started to type an email address it would do a sort of auto-complete, but
have no clue how to go about that so just told him not viable ATM.

You could loop through the weeks and put those 3 specifically in:
$days = array();
for($i = 0; $i  365; $i +=7) {
  $days[] = strtotime('next Monday', strtotime('+ '.$i.' days'));
  $days[] = strtotime('next Friday', strtotime('+ '.$i.' days'));
  $days[] = strtotime('next Sunday', strtotime('+ '.$i.' days'));
}

sort($days);

foreach($days as $day) {
  echo date('Y-m-d', $day).'br/';
}

(This is not tested, but it *should* work,)

 Hi there everyone,
 
 I have a problem, I currently have some code which populates a dropdown box

 way to display this data in the dropdown box but ONLY show 3 days a week,
 IE: Mondays, Fridays and Sundays, so it would show the dates for each
 Monday, Friday and Sunday for X amount of days (IE: 365 days in the
 dropdown).
 
 Does anyone have any idea how to do this?  I would really appreciate any
 help, I'd send my sample code only I'm not at my home/work computer ATM.

Hi there,

Just got back and tried it and it works perfectly, thank you so much for
your help, you've got me out of a bind here ;-)

Hi there,

A drop down with 365 days !?!?   Isn't that a little big?

Actually it's Fridays, Sundays and Tuesdays for 2 years (365 was an example)
it's for an Admin for a client, and he asked that it be in a dropdown box
and he's the boss, so he gets what he wants :-)

One thing he wanted which I didn't know how to do (Javascript I guess which
I don't know much about) was to preload a database of email address, and as
he started to type an email address it would do a sort of auto-complete, but
have no clue how to go about that so just told him not viable ATM.
