Re: [PHP] grabbing variable from bottom to top

2003-08-04 Thread Jeff Harris
On Aug 3, 2003, Micah Montoy claimed that:

|Anyone know of a way to use a variable that isn't defined until further down

You could use some dHTML. At the top of the page, you would print
something like
p ID=CountingIDCalculating count./p
Then, after the computing,
SCRIPT LANGUAGE=JavaScript
document.all(MyID1).innerText = 'Total Count: $count.';
/SCRIPT

This code is probably very browser dependant, so YMMV.

[PHP] Addin a column of numbers not using MySQL

How do I add a column of numbers generated through a MySQL query without
using the SQL SUM() function? I have tried looking through the different
documentation.  I am probably missing something.

How you create an FTP account all depends on what ftpserver you're running. 
Some may use the system accounts, others may have its own list of accounts, 
others still may use a dbms to store the account info.

[PHP] Relevant PHP market research

2003-08-04 Thread Alexandru COSTIN
Hi,

I've searched the net for various information on PHP usage in the
enterprise. I've searched Forrester
(http://www.forrester.com/search/1,6260,,00.html?squery=php), Gartner
(http://www.gartner.com) and
Google(http://www.google.com/search?q=market+research+php) with little
results.

I know some popularity report exists here
(http://php.weblogs.com/popularity) and I also know that Zend has made this
survey (http://www.zend.com/zend/php_survey_results.php) but they are both
missing some essential figures on money, enterprise acceptance and so on.

We would also think creating a survey of our own - but we know that only a
company like Zend would be able to attract many other respondets from more
various areas than we do.

I would appreciate any figures on the web development market - because this
is the market for most of us - and knowing the market could only be a good
thing. I think we should consider this key figures:

1. How many PHP websites are developed per year in your company
1.1 What kind of applications bring the best profit
(CMS/Intranet/ERP/CRM/Dynamic Website)
2. Turn-over per year from PHP websites/company
3. Turn-over per year from PHP websites/employee
4. Where is your company heading in terms of market strategy - offer low
cost solutions, offer professional web development solutions, etc.
5. ASP/Java competition estimates (how many sites/application do they do,
how much is the market share for them?)
6. Some real market information for total web development/country would also
help to determine the PHP market share for all those information
7. Are PHP programmers spending money on software development tools or
prebuilt libraries?
8. Why do companies reject PHP solutions and how what should we do to
improve their feelings on this?

We are also open on any suggestions on this research's goal - as probably
there are other that know better how to do a market research.

Would this kind of survey work? Are there any political problems that could
prevent people filling it? We have a survey software and we would be glad to
create a public survey with those information that could help all PHP
developers convince their clients/bosses/partners that PHP is a viable
enterprise choice. I hope that you are also willing to change the conception
on PHP as the Personal/low end scripting language.

I'm looking forward to your comments,


Alexandru

[PHP] Making i18n work on all Unix webservers ?

2003-08-04 Thread Christophe Chisogne
With the following code to translate messages in french,
we need to put the mo files in a directory like
./local/xxx/LC_MESSAGE/messages.{mo,po}

putenv(LANGUAGE=french);
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'fr_BE');
bindtextdomain(messages, ./local);
textdomain(messages);
echo 'br' . _(Yes);
On one linux webserver, xxx must be 'fr' (and LANGUAGE set).
On another linux webserver, xxx must be 'french' (no var to set).
How can I guess which xxx to use, for my code to work on
any webserver ? Other solution than using 3 or more directories
like 'fr', 'french', 'fr_BE', and copying it?
In fact, I'd like to make it work on windows servers too...
And how can I guess which env var to set (or not) and in
which order (LC_ALL, LANG, LANGUAGE, ...) ? Is there a way
to do it for the code to work nearly everywhere ?
I'll use a class to hide that complexity.
Can someone help ? The PHP documentation is far from beeing
clear and precise enough in that particular field.

RE: [PHP] Globals

 -Original Message-
 From: Chris Boget [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Sent: 01 August 2003 20:18
 
  I'm curious if someone could explain to me why this is occuring:
  
  function blah() {
//global $GLOBALS;
  echo 'Globals: pre'; print_r( $GLOBALS ); echo '/pre';
  
  }
  
  As it is shown above, with the 'global $GLOBALS' line commented
  out, the print_r() works and shows all the currently 
 defined variables
  and their corresponding values.  However, if I declare $GLOBALS
  as global, nothing gets printed out.
  
  Why?

Well, I'm kinda guessing here, but it probably goes something like this:

   global $GLOBALS;

is the equivalent of doing

   $GLOBALS = $GLOBALS['GLOBALS'];

but this causes $GLOBALS to be a local variable within the function, so the
sequence PHP executes probably goes like this:

(1) set up $GLOBALS as a local variable of the function, masking out the
true (super)global $GLOBALS.
(2) look up the 'GLOBALS' element of this new local $GLOBALS -- this is NULL
as no value has yet been assigned to the local $GLOBALS!
(3) create a reference to the NULL obtained from this lookup, and assign
that to the local $GLOBALS.

So what you've ended up in the $GLOBALS which is local to the function is a
reference to NULL, hence the behaviour you're seeing.

Like I say, this is all guesswork -- albeit slightly educated guesswork,
based on my scant and very ancient (over 20 years ago!) experience of
writing bits for a couple of interpreted languages.  Maybe a PHP internal
person might come along and tell me how close I got...!! ;)

Cheers!

 A 2 demensional array is an array of arrays.

No, it isn't.  A true 2-dimensional array is completely orthogonal -- anything you can 
do row-wise you can automatically also do column-wise, without having to write any 
special functionality.  An array of arrays, by its very nature, doesn't have columns 
as such, so if you want to work with, e.g. $arr[*][1] you have to have special 
functions to do so.

There are other differences, but in a nutshell that's essentially it.

 print $arr3[3][1];

 Weird usage

Well, it wouldn't be weird if it were correct, but it's not, it's wrong!

Having executed this, the result should be:

   $arr3 == 4
   $arr1 == array('G', 'R', 'Sr', array('N', 'Su', 'O'))

so $arr3[3][1] doesn't even exist, since $arr3 is a simple scalar integer --
but on the other hand, $arr1[3][1] is indeed 'Su'.  So it appears there's a
typo -- theirs or yours?

Thanks. But it looks like it's more complicated.
setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,'0')
returns fr_BE, but it seems PHP looks in ./local/fr,
not in ./local/fr_BE when searching the catalog files,
at least on one webserver. (using PHP 4.1.2, the other PHP 4.2.3).
I guess there is some kind of search path to locate the catalog files,
with some preference order. Too bad the i18n PHP thing isn't
more predictable :-/
Of course, I restarted the webserver (apache reload) between tests,
to avoid problems with the gettext cache.
I think I'll simply copy ./locale/french to fr, fr_BE, fr_FR
And something similar for dutch and german. But I thought there
was some better and cleaner way to do it, in a more manageable way.

 There are many companies
 out there who are using PHP to develop in-house apps (they are not
 web-dev firms) and it would be these stats that would help to raise the
 perception bar for PHP advocates. Then there are the folks who are
 developing apps for use in the corporate environment (such as
 phpMyAdmin).
This is indeed a very powerful market - as most of the companies that
we've directly questioned (companies that do either J2EE or Microsoft or
embedded C) admitted they do PHP especially for Intranet - helpdesk or
bugtracker applications, etc.

 I have spoken with others who use PHP extensively to power their
 in-house applications for many business critical functions as we do. I
 think that it would be prudent to include this segment in any research
 about the viability of PHP in the corporate environment.
 (/IMHO)
We will surely include this in the research.

The reason I've started this thread would be to identify what should be
look for in our research - as probably we will not have an already made
research at our disposal as our market is pretty new/small/weird for people
that do research for money.

So I am still looking forward for responses/ideas and after this I will
probably create the survey and submit it for review to the interested
people, following to make it public

Hi,

I am planning to migrate my current web server from
redhat 7.x to 9 and I am currently evaluating what may
go wrong or need special attention before I actually
replace it.

After searching the archives and other lists I still
have a couple of questions :

a) apache

It seems that apache + php does not work well under
heavy load so I should stick with 1.3.X right ?  Any
ideas where I can find a rpm package for redhat 9 ?

b) oracle support

For the current setup I've downloaded and installed
the oracle 8i (8.1.5) in a separate machine, tar.gz
the lib directory in order to compile and run php with
oracle 8i.

Is this the best approach for Redhat 9 or should I try
to install oracle 9 which hopefully may have a
devel-only option ?  Note that php needs to access
external oracle 8 servers which I do not mantain.

Regards.

I can't help with the Oracle question, but yes, stick with apache 1.3.x 
for the moment...

It would also pay to look at what version of PHP you're currently 
running (eg 4.1) and see what major changes you're likely to experience 
when upgrading to the latest stable version.

If your existing version is pre 4.1, the register globals will be an 
issue, for example.

Sorry, I have no idea what version of PHP was on RH 7

PHP can fork on Unix, just not from a web environment.  So you need to 
execute the command from the command line or maybe an exec.

Yes, stick with apache-1.3.x
Latest 1.3.x version RPM from Red Hat for RH 7.3 is apache-1.3.27-2.i386.rpm

I'm using the latest RH 7.1 apache RPM in a RH 9 and runs ok, which is
apache-1.3.27-1.7.1

Latest PHP version for RH 7.1 is php-4.1.2-7.1.6
For RH 9 it's php-4.2.2-17, I guess there should be no problem in running
that version with the apache-1.3.x from RH 7.x

Re: [PHP] mysql_real_escape_string

2003-08-04 Thread Larry E . Ullman
The following function is from Larry Ullman's PHP and mySQL on page 
217 -
script 6.8 - in which there is a connection to a mySQL database using 
PHP.

My question is that I'm not sure of the global variable $dbc.
Hello Anthony,

The mysql_real_escape_string() requires a connection to the database. 
The connection identifier is defined in another script so it's brought 
in using the global statement.

Hope that helps,

[PHP] A better solution?

2003-08-04 Thread Ryan A
Hi,
I have a table called the_slave where i am entering differient types of data
and 5 specific types, to get a count of each of the types i used:

$tt = SELECT ptype, count(*) FROM the_slave WHERE ptype IN ('1', '2',
'3','4','5')  and user='.$user.' and no='.$no.' GROUP BY ptype;

then to dump them into variables that I could use anywhere in the page, i
used:

if($res = mysql_query($tt))
{
  $x = 1;
  while($row = mysql_fetch_row($res))
  { $var[$x++] = $row[1]; }
}

In this way I could use it like: Hello and welcome, you have: $var[1] of
type 1 etc

now i am facing a new problem, I need to do the same as above but from 5
differient tables (tabl1,tabl2,tabl3,tabl4 and tabl5) I can of course run 5
select/count queries but is there a way to run just one and get the same
effect? I will need to dump it into an arrar and use it the way i used
$var[]

Any ideas?

Thanks,
-Ryan

CC I think I'll simply copy ./locale/french to fr, fr_BE, fr_FR

CC was some better and cleaner way to do it, in a more manageable way.

PHP does not set the paths for gettext it just calls the gettext
library function. According to the gettext web site docs gettext will
use setlocale() to find the right directory.

What happens if you drop the setenv() and just setlocale(LC_MESSAGES,'fr_FR')
(It works for me without the setenv setting)

You can use the union statement to achieve this

union
select ptype, count(*), 'table1' from table1 where ...

[PHP] COM mail merge problem!

2003-08-04 Thread David Richards
Hi,

I have a MySQL database which contains customer data. I have written a PHP
script to create a CSV file and then import the data into Microsoft excel
using COM, which has been saved into C:\TEMP\test.xls. I am now trying to
start a mail merge in word with the following code:-

com_load_typelib('Word.Application');

$word = new COM(word.application) or die(Unable to instantiate Word);
$word-Visible = 1;
$word-Documents-Add();
$word-ActiveDocument-MailMerge-MainDocumentType = wdFormLetters;
$word-ActiveDocument-MailMerge-OpenDataSource _(c:\\temp\\test.xls);

I only want to setup the mail merge up to the point where the user can start
selecting fields.

The problem is that after word opens it prompts me to select a table.
According to the Microsoft documentation this is because the SQLStatement
parameter has not been specified in the call to OpenDataSource.

I have created a empty variant data type as follows:-

$empty = new VARIANT();

and used it in the new call where
OpenDataSource
(c:\\temp\\test.xls,$empty,$empty,$empty,$empty,$empty,$empty,$empty,$empt
y,$empty,$empty,$empty,SELECT * FROM test$,$empty,$empty,$empty);

When I run the script I get the following error:

Warning: (null)(): Invoke() failed: Type mismatch. Argument: 17 in
c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\test6.php on line 93

 I didn't think I had specified 17 arguments.

I have checked want data types OpenDataSource is expecting and according to
OLE/COM view it is expecting a BSTR followed by 15 optional variants.

I apologise if this seems like a stupid question but I've only been
programming in php for a couple of months.  Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
Dave

 Hello,

 I hope someone can answer this. I have a client that would like to 
 track their visitors if they go to other competitors websites after 
 visiting
their
 own.

 Is this possible? I think it is possible to track where they go in the
site
 visited. . .

 I know that tracking isn't a good idea but I want to give my client an

 informed answer on what is possible, then let them know the 
 implications
of

 Thanks for any responses.

Re: [PHP] Not sure of the best way to handle a problem

2003-08-04 Thread David Smith
Actually it does have to do with php.One of my main questions was also
about whether it was best to use the script from the command-line or
from the web server itself. The network question had to do with php as
well. Whether it would be best to use samba or another source. VNC is a
poor idea. After all that would suggest changing each one by hand
because vnc would require that I would have to run the interpreter on
the server. Which I did say I really couldn't install there due to the
number of processes running there. Same thing with the telenet and ssh
servers. The FTP idea might work, but windows already has the smb
protocol enabled. So it does seem like the best way to go. However, I
really rather not install other software on to this box due to again the
number of processes it is running. 
Also after looking at the manual more which methods are best to search
for the files. Is fnmatch better or glob. I'm not sure I understand what
the difference is they both look like they do the same thing. 
Thanks again, 
David

 This really has nothing to do with PHP. It sounds like you need to have,
 on your Windows system, either VNCServer or Timbuktu, an ftp server, or a
 telnet or ssh server.
 
 If you install an ftp server on your windows box, you might be able to use
 PHP on your webserver to open an ftp connection, read the directory list,
 then use one of the regex commands to create your new file name, then
 change the name on the server using ftp.

[PHP] mod_php 4.3.2 (w/ apache 2.0.40 using apache filters) - problems loading extensions

2003-08-04 Thread Carl P. Corliss
(cross posted from php.install in hopes of increasing my chances of finding
help)

I've been trying to get php working on our RH8 box using a source rpm. PHP
compiles fine however, when reloading apache with the new mod_php, mod_php
fails to load any extensions. Yet php-cli and php-cgi load all extensions
just fine.

[PHP] Re: FDF problem with IE - any experts out there?!?

2003-08-04 Thread Richard Lynch
Karsten Dambekalns wrote:
 Hi!

 Sorry for the 'longish' post... I am working on a script that generates
 FDF data and sends it to the browser for display in a PDF file.
  ...
 But it works only in Mozilla, MSIE starts Acrobat Reader which then pops
 up an alert window saying (translated from german) 'An error occured
 while opening this file. The file does not exist.'
  ...
 Nothing worked so far, and I'm getting somewhat upset slowly but
 steadily. So please help!

Answering myself, for the sake of completeness: I found some info about
this on the net, and it seems there just is no solution. I decided to
show an additional paragraph telling the user to save the file and open
it with a double click then (as this works!) for users surfing with MSIE.

Does anybody know another free way to manipulate *existing* PDF
documents, that might help solve this issue in a different way?

Yes.

The *REAL* problem you are having is this:

Microsuck, in its infinite wisdom, has decided that REGARDLESS of the
Content-type: header you are sending, in accordance with the HTTP spec,
the URL doesn't end in .pdf so it must *NOT* be a PDF file.

Similarly, if you use a query string (eg .../fakepdf.php?id=42)
Microsuck IE (in some variants) will also assume that it must not REALLY
be a PDF, because who would make a dynamic PDF?  Never mind that's the
whole POINT of FDF.  This is Microsuck.  We don't do that.

Both behaviours are, of course, in direct and flagrant disregard for HTTP
specifications, but it's Microsuck, so what did you really expect?

What ya gotta do is *FORCE* your URL to end in .pdf so you can fool the
IE browser into believing that the URL really really *IS* a static PDF
file.

The simplest way to do that is to take your existing script, which
probably ends in .php or .htm, and rip off the .php or .htm part.

Then, put something like this in your .htaccess file:

Files yourexistingscript
  ForceType application/x-httpd-php
/Files

That will force Apache to treat the file 'yourexistingscript' as a PHP
file, even though it has no .php on the end.

Then, when you use a URL (including one on the submit buttons inside your
FDF files) you use something like this:

http://example.com/yourexistingscript/phony.pdf

IE, in its infinite wisdom, will see the 'phony.pdf' and say Oh, that's
a PDF file, I know what to do with that

Apache, knowing that no such file (phony.pdf) exists will fire up the
script 'yourexistingscript' and, because of the .htacess setting, will
pass it to PHP for processing.

Meanwhile, your script will still use the correct HTTP headers to keep
real browsers happy, and IE will be mind-numbingly stupid, as usual, but
you've fooled it into getting 'phony.pdf' as far as Microsuck can tell. 
It's dumb enough to rely on the URL for content-type, so it's not real
hard to fool it.

You can, of course, replace 'phony.pdf' with whatever you want for a
download name, and you can also access that part of the URL using various
'path_info' variables -- see phpinfo() and php.ini (register_globals et
al) to determine/affect precisely which variables actually hold
'phony.pdf' for you.

In addition, if you need to pass in variables, you can use, say:
http://example.com/yourexistingscript/id/42/phony.pdf
and do the exact same thing -- You'll need to tear apart /id/42/ from the
'pathinfo' to GET your variables, since they are not being passed in the
usual GET/POST way, but that is relatively easy.

Apache is going to mostly ignore (except for stuffing into 'pathinfo' the
crap after 'yourexistingscript' -- Non-IE browsers will be using the
Content-type: headers in accordance with the spec, and IE will be blindly
reading the URL as if it were TRUTH.

You could go whole-hog and get really complicated using mod_rewrite if you
were feeling particularly masochistic. :-)
Tip:  rewrite_log is your buddy when trying to learn mod_rewrite, no
matter how much it might slow your server down.

[PHP] compiling php --with imap

2003-08-04 Thread Merlin
Hi there,

I want to upgrade to a newer php version (from 4.2.2 to 4.3.2)

In order to do that I picked my old configure command to reproduce it. The
old php version was build with imap. Now I have found, that the directory
where the file is supposed to be has been removed (I guess I have cleaned
up my hard disc a while ago:-() However, the configure command had following
line:

'--with-imap=/home/sw/horde/imap-2002.RC2' '

now the configure always checks for imap and does not find this file. It has
been removed.

Can anybody remind me how to get this file again? I am lost, after trying
for 2 hours I gave up. Can anybody help me in this case?

Thanx in advance,

Re: [PHP] Purging old files from directories

2003-08-04 Thread Mike Migurski
I need to write a script that will scan/read a given directory's contents
and delete files older than a certain date. Ideally, this will be a
script that runs via cron once a week and deletes all files it finds in
the directory older than 2 weeks from the current date. I do currently
have scripts running via cron and that's no problem. I'm not sure where
to begin with the other components

Don't bother with PHP for tasks like these - just use the standard unix
find program. The following one-liner should work:

find /path/to/your/dir -mtime +14 -type f -print0 | xargs -0 rm -f

man find, man xargs for more info.

Unsure.  How would I do that?
[/snip]

Ben I think that we have a communications failure. Let's start
over...you wish to total a database column using php, correct?
Everything that you have been shown so far will do that. Is it possible
that there are no query results? If not, then we are doing the query
wrong. Try it with single quotes;

$sql_2 = SELECT paidamount FROM $tb_name WHERE id = ' . $id . ' ;

Please do a verbose check on the query to see if it is working properly

if(!($result_2 = mysql_query($sql_2, $connection))){
   print(MySQL reports:  . mysql_error() . \n);
   exit();
}

Let's use objects instead of arrays (humor me for a moment)

while($row = mysql_fetch_object($result_2)){
$paid = $row-paidamount;

RE: [PHP] Invalid Characters, XML...

2003-08-04 Thread Ivo Pletikosic
I had a similar problem recently, but was not able to work with it in PHP
tho. The array for that mapped characters to their entity turned out to be
HUGE and it took forever to evaluate long XML files.

I ended up killing several birds with one stone by wrapping the html-tidy
utility (tidy.sourceforge.net) in php. It validates xml, converts all
characters 127 into their respective entity, pretties up the XML output,
cleans up Word 2000 specific content and deals with a variety of
input/output encodings. It did all these a lot faster that any of the
scripts I had written and saved me from writing others.

then the XML parser does not under stand. Is there a

you can remove the config.cache file and then reconfigure it with the

You are using a + as the modifier on the space between p.o. and box.  +
means 1 or more.  Option 3 does not have a space.  Try using * which is 0 or

 It would also pay to look at what version of PHP
 you're currently 
 running (eg 4.1) and see what major changes you're
 likely to experience 
 when upgrading to the latest stable version.
 
 If your existing version is pre 4.1, the register
 globals will be an 
 issue, for example.
 
 Sorry, I have no idea what version of PHP was on RH

?

obviously this doesn't work. but i wanna set $type depending on which $_POST variable 
was sent. only one of these will ever be sent. rather than doing a big ass switch 
statement, is there no way i can get this into one line?

i hope this isn't too confusing...

If you're really sure only one will be sent:

$type = $_POST['news'] . $_POST['dreams'] . $_POST['storys'] . 
$_POST['words'] . $_POST['chat'];

will achieve what you're looking for.

The best solution would be to change this behavior, or at least add a
consistent form variable that you plan to receive.

 ?
 if(isset($_POST))
 {
  $type = $_POST['news'] || $_POST['dreams'] || $_POST['storys'] ||
  $_POST['words'] || $_POST['chat'];

What you need to do is name your variable 'type', so that $_POST['type'] is
either 'news', 'dreams', 'stories', 'words', or 'chat'.

Hope that helps.

You have a single page, containing multiple forms, all of which share
the same action?  What about putting a hidden variable into each form to
provide an authoritative reference to which form was posted?  Then, if
processing unique to each form can be done with:

  if ($_POST['func']==thisone) {
// fooblah
  } else  
  if ($_POST['func']==thatone) {
// barblah
  } else  
  if ($_POST['func']==another) {
// otherblah  
  } else {  
die(Form hacking detected);
  }  

And you can do things with the content of $_POST['func'], like this:

  $typelist=array(
'thisone' = This is one,
'thatone' = That is one too,
'another' = Another one here,
  );
  $type=$typelist[$_POST['func']];

Is that long the lines of what you're looking for?

I have the following form and having problems retrieving the values from
it.

FORM ACTION=teams-write.php action=post name=inputs

gets inputted from another form (this works)

? for($i = 1; $i  $number + 1; $i++) { ? 
input type=text name=team? echo $i; ? SIZE=10
? } ?


This is teams-write.php: The problem I am having is getting the values
inputted in the above form in the for loop below. If I just echo $team1,
$team2, etc. they are there, I just can't figure out how to get the
values inputted into my database. In the loop below, what would I put in
the second values section to get the values of $team1, $team2, etc.

for($i=1; $i  $count + 1; $i++) {
mysql_query(insert into manager (idn, name) values

To add one more suggestion, there is another method that can trick IE into

http://example.org/myscript.php?foo.pdf

As Richard pointed out, the issue is that IE does not properly implement HTTP

content type. It is very annoying and has caused problems for Web developers

Re: [PHP] Functions in Safe Mode?

The problem is the owner of the script must be the owner of the file 
that you are accessing.  If you fix your file ownership for your news

Look at the chown command,. you will need to execute it on the command line.

[PHP] Regular expression question

2003-08-04 Thread Dan Phiffer
So I want to grab the attributes out of an HTML element. The following
works, except in the case that the attribute's value includes the character
:

if (preg_match_all(/tag([^]*)/i, $subject, $matches))
print_r($matches);

A $subject of tag attr=\value\ gives:

Array
(
[0] = Array
(
[0] =
)

[1] = Array
(
[0] =  attr=value
)

)

A $subject of tag attr=\\ gives:

Array
(
[0] = Array
(
[0] =

Thanks for any help,
-Dan

Jay, 

It still returns '0'.  I think we are missing something.  Any other ideas?  Anyone 
else have any ideas?

RE: Re: [PHP] Addin a column of numbers not using MySQL

2003-08-04 Thread Ben C .
Let me try and explain a little better and easier.  What I am trying to do is take a 
list of values and add them to get.  I am getting the values from a database query.  

Assuming that I had the following:
val_1 100.00
val_2 150.00
val_3 200.00
val_4 250.00
val_5 100.00

What I want to do now is add up the values 1-5 and get 800.00.  

Does this help clarify?

 Ben I think that we have a communications failure. Let's start
 over...you wish to total a database column using php, correct?
 Everything that you have been shown so far will do that. Is it possible
 that there are no query results? If not, then we are doing the query
 wrong. Try it with single quotes;
 
 $sql_2 = SELECT paidamount FROM $tb_name WHERE id = ' . $id . ' ;
 
 Please do a verbose check on the query to see if it is working properly
 
 if(!($result_2 = mysql_query($sql_2, $connection))){
print(MySQL reports:  . mysql_error() . \n);
exit();
 }
 
 Let's use objects instead of arrays (humor me for a moment)
 
 while($row = mysql_fetch_object($result_2)){
   $paid = $row-paidamount;
   echo $paid \n;
   $total = $total + paid;
 }
 
 echo $total \n;
 
 Please copy and paste the results into your reply

 You misspelled method. :-)

 Hope that helps.

 Chris

It seems like this exact same problem has been addressed before.
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalm=105900603231518w=2
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-generalm=105906453817129w=2

Having the action attribute in there twice will mess stuff up.  You might
want to check all of your forms since this seems to be a re-occurring
problem, it'll probably save you some time and frustration.

RE: [PHP] Values from forms

David,

Thanks for the info. The first suggestion doesn't work, and the second
may work - but the problem is I need the array to start at '1' - and
arrays in general start at 0.

Any ideas?

TIA

Hello,

This is a reply to an e-mail that you wrote on Tue, 5 Aug 2003 at 00:05,
lines prefixed by '' were originally written by you.
 $team2, etc. they are there, I just can't figure out how to get
the
 values inputted into my database. In the loop below, what would I
put
 the second values section to get the values of $team1, $team2,
etc.
 for($i=1; $i  $count + 1; $i++) {
   mysql_query(insert into manager (idn, name) values 
 ('$i','???')); TIA

${'team'.$i} will work but it would lead to tider code if you got your
data into the script using an array...

input name='test[0]'...
input name='test[1]'...
input name='test[2]'...
etc...

All the best,

David.

What error did you get?

 and the second

and

Arrays can have whatever you want as the keys, if you want them to
start at one, start them at one!
