[PHP] Re: Oh, for a sureset() (orthogonal to isset())

2003-10-30 Thread Al
 function sureset($var) {

 if(!isset($var) || empty($var))
 return '';
 else
 return $var;
 }

 Of course, when you've got strict checking on, the above doesn't
 work, because if the variable is unset you get caught on the fact
 before the function call happens.

One change will make your code work: just pass the $var argument by
reference, ie. function sureset ($var) { ...code... }

I wrote a similar function a while ago, with a little added functionality:

function get_if_set ( $testVar, $falseValue = NULL)
{
if ( isset( $testVar ) )
{
return $testVar;
}
else
{
return $falseValue;
}
}

Without going too deep into your code, I think I see (parts of) your
problem.

In a nearly similar case, I used this code to deal with the problem.


// This  example is putting the data from a table into a 2-dimentional
array:

// When using  mysql_data_seek() you have all the selections from the
query in an array, an you can point to which row you want at any time.
// Remember: the rowpointer row_num  starts at 0 and runs to max_rows -
1.

 $query = SELECT *.

 $max_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
 $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
  $row_num = 0;
  $ix = 0;
  while ($row_num = $max_rows-1) {
  mysql_data_seek($result,$row_num);
   $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
   $ix++;
   $array[$ix] [1]= $row[1];
   $array[$ix] [2]= $row[2];
   $array[$ix] [3]= $row[3];
  $row_num++;
  }

Hopes this helps a bit.

 I am having problems sorting stuff into an array. It doesn't seem to work
 quite how everything I read says it should. It is probably my
understanding
 of it but either way I don't really know whats going on.

 I am trying to put everything out of a table into an array so I can call
up
 the individual rows by a sequential number and then the information in
each
 row by a colume heading. so for the name value in row 1 I want to have
 $null[1][name].

 The purpose of this is to amke a menu system where it automatically sorts
 the rows into the relevent order. The parentid associates a row with
another
 to signify that it comes under that menu heading. I want it to have 3
 levels, so I have included 3 loops all looking for data whos parent id is
 the same as the previous ones id. If that makes any sence.

 But when I run this script, it looses the first row and doesn't really
 output anything logical. For now I have commented out 2 of the loops to
try
 and make it easier to see where I have gone wrong.

 To see what output I get http://www.busc.net/bristol/website/admin.php is
 the code that I have included underneath.

 Thanks
