RE: [PHP] php hide menu
Dynamically changing displays can be done with JavaScript.
First thing I want you to think of is whether or not your 2nd and 3rd menus
require information from the first menu to display or sort.
According to what I see they do not.
If they do not :
We start off wrapping each of the second and 3rd menus in a DIV element and
turning them off to display. I am using 2 options pick which one is best for
you.
We can display them individually by "ID" or by the group of "class". Now we
give an ID attribute to the first menu.
echo "Choose
Market\n";
Put your 2nd menu
in here
Put your 3nd menu
in here
In this example I will utilize JQuery.js IF you do not have it you can
download it from www.jquery.com .
Please do not use both function if you use a class use the class if you use
and ID base use the ID
$(document).ready(function(){
// this will display them by ID
$('#market').change(
Function() {
Val marketvalue = $(This).val(); // I am doing this because
what if they change the menu back to the default value of ''
If(marketvalue >= 1)
{
$('#Menu2').show();
$('#Menu3').show();
}else{
$('#Menu2').hide();
$('#Menu3').hide();
}
}
);
// this will display them by the class
$('#market').change(
Function() {
Val marketvalue = $(This).val(); // I am doing this because
what if they change the menu back to the default value of ''
If(marketvalue >= 1)
{
$('.other_menus').show();
}else{
$('.other_menus').hide();
}
}
);
});
This will display the menu items as soon as they pick from the first menu
NOT requiring a submit.
If you do require the value from the first menu to be passed to the select
statements for the other menus let me know I will explain how that is done,
it is a little more complex.

Subject: [PHP] php hide menu
I have three drop down menus in my form. How do I make it so the
second and third menus are only visible once the prior menu was
selected?
Below is the first two drop down menus.
Thanks in advance.
// Generating first menu using array.
$markets = array('MCI' => 'Kansas City',
'STL' => 'ST. Louis',
'ICT' => 'Wichita',
'OMA' => 'Omaha',
'LIN' => 'Lincoln');
echo "Choose Market\n";
foreach ($markets as $key => $market) {
echo "$market\n";
}
echo "";
// This will evaluate to TRUE so the text will be printed.
if (isset($markets)) {
echo "This var is set so I will print.";
}
// Then, later, validating the menu
if (! array_key_exists($_POST['Market'], $choices)) {
echo "You must select a market.";
}
$query="SELECT cell_sect FROM sector_list order by cell_sect";
$result = mysql_query ($query);
echo "Choose Cell Sector";
// printing the list box select command
while($cellSect=mysql_fetch_array($result)){//Array or records stored
in $cellSect
echo "$cellSect[cell_sect]";
/* Option values are added by looping through the array */
}
echo "";// Closing of list box
// This will evaluate to TRUE so the text will be printed.

What do you mean by "fuzzy search"?

Re: [PHP] Re: Fuzzy Array Search
If you don't need the location, you can implode the array and use preg match, quickly testing it, that gives you about 4.5 times performance increase, but it wont give you the location, only if a certain value exists within the array... You can kind of do some really clever math to get your search parameters from there, which would be feasible on really large data sets, but if you want location, you will have to iterate at some point...

hi all, please forgive me if i do not make sense, ill try my best to explain. i have this array or arrays.

If you are using a straight equality comparison then the loop would be
faster (but then array search would probably be better), however if you
need to use a preg_match() in the loop ("fuzzy search"), then
preg_grep() will be much faster than the loop.
LOOP WITH PREG_MATCH: 10
0.435957 seconds
PREG_GREP: 10
0.085604 seconds
LOOP WITH IF ==: 10
0.044594 seconds
PREG_GREP: 10
0.091519 seconds

Suppose that $arrays is your array of arrays.
Then is
$res = array();
foreach($arrays as $item){
$res[$item['cat_name']][] = $item;
}
what you are looking for?

Re: [PHP] Re: Fuzzy Array Search
It runs fast on my 2.33 core 2, and about as fast on this small data set, on
the dual 6 core with 96GB ram, or the 8 core 9GB box, it depends on the size
of your data set, memory speed and latency, and miniscule amount of
processing power (once again assuming small data set).
That said, you could probably do some clever stuff to minimize the range you
are looking for. For example, you could use the average record size with
imploding the array and searching, capturing the offset, you could
potentially cut out a lot of records that you are, within a certain
probability sure that the result is not in, making your search execute
faster by not even looking in the majority of data in most cases, this would
be interesting to test out actually. You could sort the array to further
narrow down the search by some criteria, what have you. This would all apply
if you are searching very large data sets, i am talking about multiple
billion data points. And all that said, arrays are not really a good
data-structure for searching anyways, that's why they are rarely used in
file systems or as memory data structures ;)
Shawn, == is not good for string comparison, its a bad habit that one should
get out of, use ===, its much safer .
Also try the same algorithm on 10 arrays of some number of values
10-1000 perhaps, that would give you better performance statistics :)

Depends. Could be as simple as this to return an array of all
occurrences of $needle in any of the $haystack_array values:
$haystack_array = array('something is here', 'nothing matches here',
'there will be a somethingsomething match here');
$needle = 'something';
$matches_array = preg_grep("/$needle/", $haystack_array);
Depends on where you are getting the search criteria and how you want it
to match in the array. BTW... If this is originally in a database then
you can do it there with the LIKE operator and % wildcard.

Re: [PHP] advice on how to build this array from an array.
hi,
thanks for your reply.
i have figured out, well kind of, and got the data i need but the problem is
its nested within to many arrays!
Array (
[threads & form types] =>
Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => imperial thread form [id] =>
28 [page_cat_id] => 9 [main_nav] => true ) [1] => Array ( [name] => metric iso
threads [id] => 29 [page_cat_id] => 9 [main_nav] => true ) )
[material range] =>
Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => super duplex stainless steels
[id] => 30 [page_cat_id] => 10 [main_nav] => true ) [1] => Array ( [name] =>
standard stainless steels [id] => 31 [page_cat_id] => 10 [main_nav] => true )
[2] => Array ( [name] => non ferrous [id] => 32 [page_cat_id] => 10 [main_nav]
=> true ) [3] => Array ( [name] => carbon based steels [id] => 33
[page_cat_id] => 10 [main_nav] => true ) )
)
how can i get this just do its a $k => $v pair,
the key as it is [threads & form types] && [material range], and the value, the
single array [Array ( [name] => imperial thread form [id] => 28 [page_cat_id]
=> 9 [main_nav] => true ) [1] => Array ( [name] => metric iso threads [id] =>
29 [page_cat_id] => 9 [main_nav] => true )] ?
hope this makes sense
