I have actually done what you are looking for... Here is how I do it:
On the search page, write the search phrase into a session variable so you
can access it from another page and then run this code:
What that does is it writes the current search pattern into an excel file
called Export.xls and downloads it to your harddrive. I am in the process of
re-writing it to work as a function, but have had mixed results so far. I'm
learning functions right now :)
If you know functions, and want to take a stab at re-writing it, I can
provide you with the code I have so far :)
thank you for the suggestion, but here is another problem that i try to
avoid saving mysql statement to query from the table again.
let say that user searched and found 10 records,
in the meantime, other users may change any of these 10 records,
so if we saved mysql statement and re-run mysql statement again, the
result might be different. to prevent this problem, i only want to
download records that returned on this page only.
thanks,

How are you passing the parameters to THIS page? The solution Per
presented would either require the same parameter list as the current
page (if going to a URL dedicated to sending the output in the format
you are using for the xls) or one additional parameter to the current
page if you the current page is written to vary the style of the
output based on that parameter's value.

[PHP] fgets???
Is it possible to read each line of data from a file?
I have a text file that has several lines on it. I only want to display the
first line only.
The
file I have
looks like this.
But outputs:
"The file I have looks like this."
Here is my code:
Breaking News
Please check here often for breaking news stories.
";
// iterate over file list
while (($filename = readdir($dh)) !== false)
{
// if filename matches search pattern, print it
if (ereg($pattern, $filename))
if(strpos($filename,'.')>0)
// if ($filename = str_replace('.html','',$filename))
{
$fh = fopen($dir . $filename, 'r');
$filehead = fread($fh, 72);
fclose($fh);
echo "".$filehead."";
}
}
echo "
";
// close directory
closedir($dh);
}
}
?>

Yes - have a link like this:

i already got this method, but the problem that i have is the
parameters is mysql statement and it's very long. i don't think a
good idea to pass this in the url. also, the page that i'm working
on is a search page, therefore the mysql statement is very
complicate and long. that's why i don't want to pass via url.
is there way to do within this page???
I have actually done what you are looking for... Here is how I do it:
On the search page, write the search phrase into a session variable so
you can access it from another page and then run this code:
What that does is it writes the current search pattern into an excel
file called Export.xls and downloads it to your harddrive. I am in the
process of re-writing it to work as a function, but have had mixed
results so far. I'm learning functions right now :)
If you know functions, and want to take a stab at re-writing it, I can
provide you with the code I have so far :)

If you dynamically created the variable:
${ 'something' . '_' . 'somethingElse' };
then you'd have access to it via the variable name parts.

This is what I meant, as was posted just yesterday by someone (Jim Lucas?)
for ( $i = 0 ; $i < 20 ; $i++ )
{
$theVariableAsString = 'something_' . $i;
${ 'something' . '_' . $i } = "Assign something here";
}
String value available here -> $theVariableAsString.
I have no idea why tedd wants to have the string value of the variable nor
how he will use it.

Here you say that the method takes five (5) variables.

$auth->CreateUser("fake email", 5, "fake name", 4);
But here, you are only putting 4 variables in the method call.
Are you missing something that is required? The fifth field perhaps?
any ideas? only the first method gets executed?

whats going on inside CreateUser(), have you tried tracing the logic?
are the successive calls raising any errors?

Re: [PHP] fgets???
The first possible issue is that the "newline" character[s] is
different for Mac, Windows, and Linux...
So if your file is one format, and fgets is expecting the other, it
won't do what you want.
The next is that if your code is wrong, and is showing it all as one
line, it PROBABLY means you are using a browser, and you PROBABLY
aren't using nl2br to change the newlines (assuming again that nl2br
looks for the right OS newline). Another option is "View Source" in
the browser to see the newlines.

in propel you do not touch SQL too ;)
you initialize an object of class Criteria and define whatever you want.
e.g.
$c = new Criteria();
$c->add('whatevercolumn', 'whatevervalue');
of course it can do much more, joins and everything you may need

It IS an option -- and that's what I was doing (except for the
suppress error) via this:
$post_var = sessionize_post('post_var');
I just wanted to make it simpler and do this:
$post_var = sessionize_post($post_var);

It takes inefficiency to a whole new level.

Metastorage generates totaly database independent code . You don't need to regenerate the code to support multiple databases nor have fat base classes to access your database or do any other ORM operations. Currently it generates code that uses Metabase database abstraction layer, although it can support other database abstraction layers. It supports many databases like MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Microsoft SQL server, SQLite, etc.. Metabase also generates a separate class for installing or upgrading your database schema. If you change the definition of you objects, you just need to call that class to install, upgrade, downgrade your database schemas, safely without loosing any data that was already in the database.

That is not exactly what I am talking about. Metastorage has an Object Query Language (OQL) that lets you express whatever query conditions you want. It generates PHP code with the necessary SQL queries you need. You do not have to build any queries programatically at run-time. The generated code can return full SQL statements if you want to execute them separately by some other application code, but usually I just use the generated report classes directly, as they take care of many things like pagination, so I do not have to deal with SQL directly. That is one of the great benefits of ORM.

Second, you're not missing anything.
Third, if I wanted to merge the arrays, I could use REQUEST and

I was just trying to get the "check the current value of post or get

$whatever = serialize($whatever);
Now, I've have to continue with my original:
$whatever = serialize('whatever');

with the numbers I've been dealing with lately, I was looking to

what is the code for createUser()?
what is does you error log contain?
are you displaying errors? (you should probably do so in a dev environment)

please review:
http://www.webbytedd.com//var-string/index.php
Warning: Geek meters should be worn at all times and exposure should

The "problem" that I was seeking a solution for was simply an easier
way to grab POST and GET variables and place them into SESSIONs while
keeping the most current values current.
I'm a little disappointed in the solution because I wanted the
statements to be:
$post_var = sessionize_post($post_var);
$get_var = sessionize_get($ger_var);
But, the function provided by Daniel (and found in the literature)
would not work from within my session_post and session_get functions
-- I think it's probably something to do with the scope of the
variable.
In any event, I had to alter the calls to:
$post_var = @sessionize_post($post_var, vname($post_var));
$get_var = @sessionize_get($get_var, vname($get_var));
I don't see why this has to be so convoluted - it would be a heck of
a lot easier to do it with a string:
$post_var = @sessionize_post('post_var');
so why exactly is that not an option (or good idea)?
You see, there can be reasons why someone would want to know the
variable's name.
Thanks Daniel and to all who commented.

How is the output random? The text from the file, or the order the
files are read?

Re: [PHP] Order directory output
i hooked up an spl example; and the files are sorted by name.
also, did you want that inside or outside the w/
class=NormalText, because the opening and closing tags are
mixed up..
getInnerIterator()->current()->isFile()) {
return true;
}
}
}
class TextInfoIterator extends ArrayIterator {
public function __construct($array, $flags=0) {
$this->ksort();
parent::__construct($array, $flags);
}
public function current() {
return '' . parent::current() . '';
}
}
$fileMatchString = '/.*(\.txt|\.TXT)$/';
$resultData = array();
foreach(new RegexIterator(new FileIterator(new
DirectoryIterator('testDir')), $fileMatchString) as $curAllowedFile) {
try {
$theFile = $curAllowedFile->openFile('r');
$theFile->setFlags(SplFileObject::DROP_NEW_LINE);
$resultData[$curAllowedFile->getFilename()] =
$theFile->fgets();
unset($theFile);// close the file ??
} catch(RuntimeException $e) {
// do something here
}
}
?>

Here is another, generic extension filter with SPL. Untested, and I have
just woken up, so if it doesn't work... :-P
class ExtensionFilter extends FilterIterator {
private $ext;
private $it;
public function __construct(DirectoryIterator $it, $ext) {
parent::__construct($it);
$this->it = $it;
$this->ext = $ext;
}
public function accept() {
if ( ! $this->it->isDir() ) {
$ext = array_pop(explode('.', $this->current()));
return $ext != $this->ext;
}
return true;
}
}
