Fw: [PHP] date

When/If you read the PHP manual, you'll discover that the second parameter
MUST be a timestamp; not a text string.

Hi,

I am doing a test with the date function,

$mydate="2002-05-02"
$tdate=date("d M Y", "$mydate");
echo "$tdate"

I should expect 02 May 2002. But I get a strange result "31 Dec 1969". Why?
How can I correct this?

Regards,
Norman

Re: [PHP] parse error

When constructing $Query, end each line with a period (.) not a comma(,).
Same applies to $Query2.

$Query = "INSERT into $TableName values('0', '$Guestbook[dateadd]'.
'$Guestbook[name]', '$Guestbook[town]', '$Guestbook[email]'.
'$Guestbook[website]','$Guestbook[favsong]', '$Guestbook[comments]')";

Subject: [PHP] Problem with array


Hello All,

I've got a form that creates checkboxes based on the number of rows on a
table. The user has to check some of the boxes and then click submit. The
boxes are named RG1, RG2, RG3, 

If there are 4 checkboxes and the user selects them all or selects the
first, second and fourth, or the first third and fourth my code works. But
if the user selects the second, third and fourth (He does not checks the
first one) no information is recorded on my array.

Here's the code that I have to search the $HTTP_POST_VARS and then fill a
array variable called $RG.


function SearchRGs() {
global $HTTP_POST_VARS;
global $RGs;

// fills the array variable RGs with the values of checked checkboxes
that start with the name RG# (where # goes from 1,2,3,).
   // returns the qty of checked RGs and size of the $RGs array.

$index = count($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$count = 0;

for ($i=1; $i < $index; $i++) {
if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS["RG$i"])) {
$RGs[] = $HTTP_POST_VARS["RG$i"];
$count++;
}
}

return $count;

}


Can anyone help me with this?

Why if I do not check the first checkbox on the form the array  is not
filled.

Thank you,

Carlos Fernando.

Re: [PHP] Database Duplication

2002-04-30 Thread Richard Emery

I'm going to guess you are using mysql.

Before starting a test, dump your database with the mysqldump command.
Edit this file to create/use your test database.
Load your test database with this file.

This is too obvious and too easy...therefore, I assume you already did this
and it did not provide what you needed.
What additional functionality are you seeking?

Subject: Re: [PHP] Database Duplication


Maybe I should explain myself a little better. Sorry
for leaving out what turned out to be crucial details.

What is happening is I want to make a test user so
that, whenever I log in with that user, I can muck up
the database and not worry about what others will see
or permanent changes.

In the past, whenever I tested the site, I had to
quickly reset any changes I'd done to the database,
which sometimes involved an hour or more of work for
hidden bugs that I ended up overlooking.

The test user (whom only I know of) is needed to test
the Web site (make sure things are being deleted as
needed, etc.). What I envisioned is that, when I log
in as 'testuser', the database will be duplicated and
I'll use that. While I'm testing my site, mucking
things up, screwing up the data, I don't have to worry
about other users coming along and seeing these
changes, because they'll be seeing the original, ,
unscrewed data (which is why I need to use a muckable,
duplicate database), making changes, etc. This way,
that hour of work I mentioned would be eliminated.

When I log out, the database is useless because it's
only really test data (with enough real-life data
already populated in the database), and so it doesn't
matter what changes users have done in the meantime.

What I may do is just duplicate the database and have
a permanent, screwable database to play with, because
that seems like less of a load on the system. I just
wanted to have up-to-date data in my screwable
database. The above method looks like a lot of
processor time, etc., so just making a permanent test
data database may be the best option, so it doesn't
have to keep recopying. I just thought I'd throw out
the question and see if it was smaller than I thought
it would be.

Every time a user logs in, you want to duplicate the database  Must be a
very small database...not one with several hundred-thousand records.

It's a SQL question.  You didn't specify what database you are using, so
nobody can provide you with specifics.

[PHP] Unable to Install PHP 4.2 into RH7.0/Apache 1.3

2002-04-28 Thread Richard Emery

I am unable to install PHP 4.2 functionality into my RH 7.0/Apache 1.3
environment.

I downloaded the 4.2 source.  The INSTALL file provides 2 options: DSO and
static.  I was unable to create the DSO version because the file "apxs" is
nowhere to be found on my system.  I should mention that I installed the
original Apache/PHP/mysql combination from the RH 7.0 RPM binaries.  If I
infer correctly, according to the PHP INSTALL file, it appears that I would
need to create Apache from source in order to retrieve this "apxs" file.  Is
this true?
FYI: per the instructions, my system does have the mod_so.c module.

To create the static version of PHP to be run by Apache, it also appears I
need to create Apache from scratch.

I created PHP 4.2 with the following configuration statement
./configure --enable-discard-path --enable-safe-mode --enable-ftp --enable-m
bstring --enable-overload --enable-shmop --enable-sockets --enable-sysvsem -
-enable-sysvshm --with-mysql --with-readline --with-regex

This created a stand-alone PHP binary which executes correctly from the
command line (I first moved the binary PHP to /usr/sbin).  However, when I
execute PHP scripts from within Apache, it uses the older 4.0.1p12 version
which came from the RPM.

Question: where to from here?  Must I install Apache from source to create
the DSO or static version (I prefer DSO, because that's what I've been
running)?  Or, since I do not have the apxs file, is that something that
somebody can send to me?

Or am I SOL...

No this is the first if statement but there are nested if's after that. I'd
post the code but everyone yells at me about my coding style.
If you promise not to yell I will post it.

Re: [PHP] Sorting an array.

2002-04-18 Thread Richard Emery

Perhaps you could store $row in an array of arrays; store only $row within
100 miles. Add another field, Distance, to each row that holds the
calculated distance.  Then, after creating the array, sort the final array
by Distance.

Hello,
Here's what i'm working with.
I'm figuring the distance between to points based on
latitude and longitude.

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
file://calculate distance between the two cities.
$Lat2 = $row["Latitude"];
$Lon2 = $row["Longitude"];
$x = 69.1 * ($Lat2 - $Lat1);
$y = 53 * ($Lon2 - $Lon1);

$Distance = sqrt($x * $x + $y * $y);
$Distance = ceil($Distance);

   if ($Distance < 100){
echo $row["CompanyName"]."";
echo $row["Address"]."";
echo $row["City"]."";
echo $row["State"]."";
echo $row["ZipCode"]."";
echo $row["PhoneNumber"]."";
echo $row["FaxNumber"]."";

echo "Approximant Distance = $Distance
Miles";
}
}
Here is where my question comes to play.  How do I
sort the $Distance so that 4 Miles will come up first
10 second 30 third ext..
I have tried useing sort() function but it doesn't
work quite the way I want it to.
Thanks for your help

I've seen other responses to your request answer with some VERY UGLY methods
to get the last id.

Instead, use mysql_insert_id() which was created specifically for the info
you need.

Hi folks,

I need to get the next auto_increment value of a mysql table thru php.

Looking at my mysql manual, it makes reference to a last_insert_id()
function?

How would I use this via php, or is there some other way to do it?

Thanks

Re: [PHP] Displaying Results

You're part way there:
SELECT COUNT(matches) FROM table GROUP BY matches;

Subject: [PHP] Displaying Results


Suppose I want a script that goes into a table, looks up all records in 
a given field, and groups and displays the results like so:
match1 (1)
match2 (5)
match3 (6)

So basically it looked at the field 'matches' and found a total of 12 
records, 1 record for match1, 5 records for match2, and 6 records for 
match3. It would also be handy for the output to be a link so when you 
clicked on it, it would pass a query on to the database querying for 
just that particular field, like:
SELECT * FROM table WHERE match="match1"

Can someone point me in the right direction for this? Or show me an 
example script that would accomplish this? Any help would be great. 
Thanks a lot!

Jason

You are getting "array" because that's what $eventdate is.

Now, WHAT do you REALLY want to insert?

I am trying to insert event dats into a database and to make sure the user
puts the date in the correct format. I am now trying to collect the
information from the three fields and insert it into one field.

code as follows: $eventdate = array ("eventyear", "eventmonth", "eventday");

when I insert it into the database like: $query = "INSERT INTO $tablename4
VALUES ('0', '$entername', '$date', '$eventdate', '$eventheading',
'$eventbody' )";

for the $eventdate variable the word "array" is inserted.

Could someone please tell me where I am going wrong.
