[PHP] can this be fone with PHP?

[Bruce Gilbert]

I have created forms with PHP where the information in the fields is
sent via sendmail to an email, but is there a way to have the
information extracted and a pdf form created when the user hits the
submit button?

[PHP] help with script needed

[Bruce Gilbert]

I have a little script that prints a number out from 1 to 100
[php]
";

}
?>
[/php]

I just need to add code to print something different, say "foo" if the
output is a multiple of 5 or 10 for example. How do I go about doing
this?

Re: [PHP] help with script needed

[Bruce Gilbert]

Thanks for the responses so far.

This is what I have come up with
[php]
";
if ($i%3 == 0) echo "Foo ";
elseif ($i%5 == 0) echo "Bar";
}

?>
[/php]

and the results can be seen here
http://www.inspired-evolution.com/image_test/numbers_output.php

I actually want the Foo and Bar to replace the numbers they are
dereivatives of and not appear below as they are now, and I also need
to add a third condition for "FooBar" which would be for numbers that
are both divisible by 3 and 5.

thanks

Very bad solution. Try the % operator:

if($number % $multiple == 0)

[PHP] variables in CSS in PHP question/problems

[Bruce Gilbert]

I stumbled upon this article http://www.chrisjdavis.org/2005/10/16/php-in-css/

and was trying out variables with PGP, but can't get it to work. I
wanted to have a variable image that changes on refresh, and also set
the body color with PHP/CSS and maybe get that to change on refresh
too.

sp from the tutorial mentioned above I have:

[php]
fields = array'body','image_float');
*  foreach ($this->fields as $field) {
*   $this->{"$field"} = $args["$field"];
*}
*}
* }
*
**/

function font($args=array()) {
   $this->fields = array('body','image_float');
foreach ($this->fields as $field) {
$this->{"$field"} = $args["$field"];
}
}
}

/**
*
* create our color class.
*
**/

class color {

/**
*
* In PHP 4 your constructor has to have the same name as the class, see above.
*
**/
function color($args=array()) {
   $this->fields = array('body','image_float');
foreach ($this->fields as $field) {
$this->{"$field"} = $args["$field"];
}
}
}

/**
*
* create and setup our color object
*
**/

$color = new color(array(

body => "#000",

));

/**
*
* And now we write our rotation script
*
**/

function rotater() {
// we start off with the path to your images directory
$path='images';

// srand(time()) will generates the random number we need for our rotater
srand(time());
   for ($i=0; $i < 1; $i++) {

// here we are assigning our random number to a variable name so we
can call it later.  An important note here, you see we are dividing
rand() by 6, 6 is the number of images you have to work with, so if
you have 10, we would: rand()%10)
$random = (rand()%6);

// so our files in our images folder are named side_image1.gif,
side_image2.gif, side_image3.gif etc.  We construct the file name once
we have the random number:
$file = 'image_float';
$image = $path . $file . $random . '.gif';
}

//  echo $image here in the function,
}
?>
[/php]

In the XHTML I have:

 
and of course a  tag.

in my css I have:

div.image_float{
background-image: url() no-repeat;
float:left;
width:75px;
height:75px;
padding:15px;
}

and also

body
{

background-color: body; ?>;
}

in my directory, I have a folder called images which is at the root
level with the index file and css, and the images are called
side_image1, side_image2, side_image3 etc.

can anyone see whay this isn't working? Neither the background body
color or the rotating image works.

thanks

[PHP] form not submitting inofrmation

[Bruce Gilbert]

I have a form on my website, that used to work, but I just realized
that now it doesn't. You don't get any errors, but I am not receiving
an email with the information after the submittal.

The form is located at http://www.inspired-evolution.com/Contact.php

and the PHP is:

[php]
\n";  // your email client
will show the person's email address like normal
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n"; // sets
the mime type
$recipient = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";

$subject = "Contact From $site_name - $subject"; // this is the
subject of the email

$msg = wordwrap( $msg, 1024 );



mail($recipient, $subject, stripslashes($msg), $headers); // the
mail() function sends the message to you

// if everything is OK, print a thanks message
print(" Hola $name, Thanks for getting in touch!
We have received your e-mail and will respond at
$flizzum_flazzum");

exit;
}
}
?>
[/php]

emailval.php is

[php]
 and check the length
   $tld = $Levels[$sLevels-1];
   $tld = ereg_replace("[>)}]$|]$", "", $tld);
   if (strlen($tld) < 2 || strlen($tld) > 3 && $tld != "arpa") $fail = 1;

   if (!ereg($tld.":", $gTLDs) && !ereg($tld.":", $CCs)) $fail = 2;
   }

//  If it's a country code, check for a country TLD; add on the domain name.
   if ($Level && !$fail) {
   $cd = $sLevels - 2; $domain = $Levels[$cd].".".$tld;

   if ($sh) fclose($sh);

   return $fail;
 } // End E-Mail Validation Function

[/php]

anyone see what might be causing the problem?

[PHP] determining time difference between two timestamp fields.

[Bruce Gilbert]

Here is the situation. I have a form which sets a timestamp when a
user logs in using UPDATE in SQL. The field is called
'login_timestamp' and is in a table called 'Candidates'. I have
another timestamp which is set when a user submits the form data into
the DB and it is called 'submit_timestamp' . What I want to do is
determine the amount of time the user takes to complete the form by
subtracting the 'login_timestamp' time form the 'submit_timestamp'
time. I am using SQL to extract the data here.

$sql = "SELECT Responses.name,Answers,submit_timestamp,login_timestamp
   FROM Responses LEFT JOIN Candidates USING (user_id)";

and then to display the timestamp in readable form.

echo "Completion Time:" . date('F j, Y
g:i:sa', strtotime($row["login_timestamp"])) . "";

so I need to know how to subtract from two timestamp fields, two
different tables and come up with the difference in minutes.


thanks.

Re: [PHP] determining time difference between two timestamp fields.

[Bruce Gilbert]

Here is what I currently have.

echo "Completion Time:" .
(strtotime($row['submit_timestamp']) -
strtotime($row['login_timestamp']))/60 , "";

this gives me an output of 21235172.75

not sure what format that is in? I was hoping for something like 60
minutes, 30 minutes etc. Don't need the days or seconds. The MySQL
timestamp is in this format.

probably not fully understanding what I need to do.

I am trying this.

echo "Completion Time:". date('F j, Y
g:i:sa',strtotime($row['submit_timestamp']) -
strtotime($row['login_timestamp']))/60 , "";


but just returns a zero value.

Re: [PHP] determining time difference between two timestamp fields.

[Bruce Gilbert]

the resulting output with that code is a little weird. I get September
3, 1970 2:39:32pm

I think part of the problem is my Query. When I run it in PHP MyAdmin
I get a null value for login_timestamp even though there is indeed a
timestamp there. The Query again is:

SELECT 
Responses.editor_name,Answer1,Answer2,Answer3,Answer4,Answer5,Answer6,Answer7,Answer8,Answer9,Answer10,Answer11,Answer12,submit_timestamp,login_timestamp
FROM Responses LEFT JOIN Candidates USING (user_id)

login_timestamp is in a table called 'Candidates' and submit_timestamp
is in a tables called 'Responses'.

thanks for all the help to this point.

Re: [PHP] determining time difference between two timestamp fields.

[Bruce Gilbert]

yea, not sure why my Query isn't returning a value though? If I don't
use date(), what should I use?

the SQL for the timestamps looks like this.
`login_timestamp` datetime NOT NULL default '-00-00 00:00:00',
`submit_timestamp` timestamp NOT NULL default CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,

sorry for the top-posting, but I think you have to in gmail.

I found out the problem.the value in (user_id) in the two tables has
to be the same. That is why the Query wasn't working.

I still am not getting the desired result though. Something that
should be displaying as five minutes displays as -117 minutes

My current code.
$submit_time = strtotime($row['submit_timestamp']);
$login_time = strtotime($row['login_timestamp']);

$completion_time = $submit_time - $login_time;
$completion_time /= 60;

$formatted_completion_time = floor($completion_time );

echo "Completion Time:";
echo $formatted_completion_time;
echo " minutes";
echo "";

[PHP] still having trouble with time-stamp subtraction two mysql fields

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hi there,

I am still attempting to get a display of the result of my two
timestamp fields subtracted from one another in minutes and hours if
needed. This is for a form and the timestamps are recorded when a user
logs in [login_timestamp] and when the form is
submitted[submit_timestamp]. The display still doesn't appear to be
accurate and for some reason the results are displayed three times for
each record underneath the results for one person. So it looks
something like.

Tom Thumb
Answer 1
Answer 2
Answer 3 etc.
[time 1]
[time 2]
[time 3]

Sally Smith
Answer 1
Answer 2
Answer 3 etc.
[time 1]
[time 2]
[time 3]

Bob Jones
Answer 1
Answer 2
Answer 3
[time 1]
[time 2]
[time 3]

time1,2,3 being for Tom Thumb, Sally Smith and Bob Jones respectively.

My entire code for the form looks like this.



Exam Results



exam results

Candidate Name

{$row['name']}";
echo "Section 1";

   for ($i =1;$i<9;++$i) {
echo "{$row['Answer'.$i]}";
  }
echo "Section 2";

echo "{$row['Answer10']}";
echo "Section 3";

echo "{$row['Answer11']}";
echo "Section 4";

echo "{$row['Answer12']}";



$sql_timestamp = "SELECT
TIMESTAMPDIFF(SECOND,submit_timestamp,login_timestamp) as cTime FROM
Responses LEFT JOIN Candidates USING (user_id)";

$result_timestamp = mysql_query($sql_timestamp);
if (!$result_timestamp) {
echo "Could not successfully run query ($sql_timestamp) from DB: "
. mysql_error();
exit;
}
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result_timestamp)){
  $formatted_completion_time = formatTime($row['cTime']);
  echo "Completion Time:\n";
  echo $formatted_completion_time;
  echo "";
}

}
mysql_free_result($result);



?>





and my function code for the subtracting of the two fields is here:



any assistance that can be provided is greatly appreciated.

[PHP] open source PHP/MySQL image viewing application

[Bruce Gilbert]

can anyone reccomend an open source PHP/MySQL based image viewing
application. I am looking to store the images in MySQL and have a
viewer on the page with the option to click to the next image and
back, possibly with the display of an enlarged image as well as the
option to click on thumbnails below.

this may also be somehting I could look into creating from scratch,
but I dodn't want to re-invent the wheel if I don't have to...

[PHP] recommendations for good breacrumbs script

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hello,

I am looking around for a good PHP breadcrumbs navigation script that
would out put a path based on file structure.  For instance if I had a
folder called Portfolio and within that folder I had a index.php file
and another file called Websites.php. When I was on the websites.php
page, the breadcrumbs path would display Home >> Portfolio >> Websites
and Home and Portfolio would be hyperlinks. I don't want the
breadcrumbs to display a .php extension. I could of course hard code
this, but would rather find an automated solution.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

[PHP] PHP code not functioning on search page

[Bruce Gilbert]

I have a bit of PHP rotating image code and time stamp that work fine
on every page except my search page
http://inspired-evolution.com/search.php. I installed a PHP based
search engine called Zoom Search as a plug-in in Dreamweaver. Since
the code works on every other page, I am not sure why it wouldn't on
this page. An example of a page where the code works fine is
http://inspired-evolution.com/search_template.php

Any assistance?

[PHP] help with setting menu styles with PHP

[Bruce Gilbert]

 am trying to accomplish something utlizing PHP. What I have is a menu
marked up as such:



About Me
Skill set
Hire
Me
Portfolio
Contact
Résumé
http://inspiredevolution.blogs.com/inspiredevolutioncom/";
title="the blog for Inspired-Evolution.com" >Blog
RSS




and then I have everything styled nicely with CSS to give you the menu you
see here:

http://www.inspired-evolution.com/About_Me.php

What I want to do next is to change the menu from being hard coded on all of
my pages to being an include making the menu more manageable. The stumbling
block is I want to be able to keep the CSS functionality where you have the
active indicator which has different CSS for the link of the page you are
on. I have seen this done with PHP before with something like IF on active
page use this style  ELSE use this style. Can any PHP gurus assist me in
coding something like this?

I don't believe it is too difficult, but beyond by scope right at the
moment.

[PHP] connecting to MySQL from a Mac

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hello,

I am trying to add a PHP search to my site and the read me file says to:

2. In the server, create a database in MySQL to hold Sphider data.

a) at command prompt type (to log into MySQL):
mysql -u  -p
Enter your password when prompted.

b) in MySQL, type:
CREATE DATABASE sphider_db;

trouble is I am on a mac, so there is no command prompt. What are mac
users supposed to do???

Of course you can use some other name for database instead of sphider_db.

[PHP] cannot connect to MySQL server and not sure why

[Bruce Gilbert]

I am having trouble connecting to MySQL server through a PHP script
and I am not sure why.

the error I receive is:

Warning: mysql_pconnect(): Access denied for user:
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) in
/hsphere/local/home/bruceg/inspired-evolution.com/search/include/connect.php
on line 6
Cannot connect to database, check if username, password and host are correct.

trying to connect with the following script:

?php
$database="bruceg_search";
$mysql_user = "bruceg_webmaster";
$mysql_password = " password"; 
$mysql_host = "server-10.existhost.com";
mysql_pconnect ($mysql_host, $mysql_user, $mysql_password);  
if (!$success)
die ("Cannot connect to database, check if username, 
password and
host are correct.");
$success = mysql_select_db ($database);
if (!$success) {
print "Cannot choose database, check if database name is 
correct.";
die();
}
?>

I double checked the database and I have created a database called
bruceg_search and added a user called bruceg_webmaster with all of the
editing privileges. Of course 'password' is changes with the password
used to connect in the actual script. and I double checked that to be
correct as well. Any suggestions?

[PHP] still some problems with contact form

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hello,

on my web site contact form:

http://www.inspired-evolution.com/Contact.php

I am still having a few problems with the return results after filling
out the form. Basically I am wanted to return an error msg. when all
of the required fields are not filled out (those with a red *), and an
invalid email address will also return an error.

filling out all of the information correctly will result in a
thank-you paragraph, we have received your submission etc.

Right now even if you don't fill out the required fields, you still
get my thank-you message for filling out the form correctly (as well
as getting the error msg.). If someone has a chance try out the form
yourself and you will see what I mean.

What I would really like to have is a thank-you page when the form is
completed sucussfully and an oops! page when there is an error. SO we
are talking two different pages, based upon the results of the form
information...

The PHP code I have for the return info. currenty is:

Error! Fields marked 
* are required to continue.';
echo'Please go back to the Contact Me page and try it again!';
} 

if 
(!eregi("^[a-z0-9]+([_\\.-][a-z0-9]+)*"."@"."([a-z0-9]+([\.-][a-z0-9]+)*)+"."\\.[a-z]{2,}"."$",$email))
{
 
echo 'Invalid email address entered.';
echo 'Please go back to the Contact Me page and try it again!';
}
if (($email) != ($email2)) {
 
echo 'Error! e-mail addresses dont match.';

 
}
 
$email_address = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$subject = "There has been a disturbance in the force";
 
$message = "Request from: $firstname $lastname\n\n
Company name: $company\n
Phone Number:  $phone\n
Email Address: $email\n
URL: $URL\n
Please Contact me via: $Contact_Preference\n

mail($email_address, $subject, $message, "From: $email \nX-Mailer:
PHP/" . phpversion());
 
echo "Hello, $firstname.
We have received your request for additional information, and will
respond shortly.

[PHP] Re: still some problems with contact form

[Bruce Gilbert]

thanks, makes some sense.

so now where I have echo, I should have print? or just leave as echo
and add the else and ||?

Could you provide some sample code based on the code I posted
previously by chance??

being new to PHP I am sure I will run into errors for a few days, as is...

that would help me out greatly.



thx,

[PHP] quick question about using capital letters coding w/ PHP

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hello,

I am well versed in coding with xhtml which requires all lower case
and am pretty much a newbie at PHP so that is why I am asking this
question.

is this acceptible 

if ($_post [sender_email] == "") or does at have to be if ($_POST
[sender_email] == "")

in short, do uppercase and lowercase always have the same meaning.

thx,

[PHP] PHP error on form

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hello,

I am trying to get a form to work integrating html with PHP.

the code I have is:


Your Name:< /br>

< /br>

Message:< /br>



";

if ($_POST['op'] !="ds") {
// they need to see the form
echo "$form_block";
} else if ($_POST['op'] =="ds") {
//check value of $_POST['sender name']
if ($_POST['sender_name'] =="") {
$name_err = "Please enter your 
name!< /br>";
$send ="no";
}
//check value of $_POST['sender_email']
if ($POST['sender_email'] =="") {
$email_err ="Please enter your email 
address!< /br>";
$send= "no";
}
//check value of $_POST['message']
if ($POST['message'] =="") {
$message_err = "Please enter a message!< 
/br>";
$send ="no";
}
if ($send !="no") {
//it's o.k to send, so build the mail
$msg ="E-MAIL SENT FROM WWW SITE\n";
$msg .="Senders Name:   $POST['senders_name']\n";
$msg .="Senders E-MAIL: 
$POST['senders_email']\n";
$msg .="Senders Name:   $POST['message']\n\n";
$to ="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$subject = "There has been a disturbance in the Force";
$mailheaders .="Reply-To: $_POST['sender_email']\n";
//send the mail
mail ($to, $subject, $msg, $mailheaders);
//display confirmation to user
echo "mail has been sent!";
} else if ($send =="no") {
//print error messages
echo "$name_err";
echo "$email_err";
echo "$message_err";
echo "$form_block";
}
}
?>

and the error I get is:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE,
expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in
/hsphere/local/home/bruceg/inspired-evolution.com/Contact_Form_test.php
on line 58

the above code is just the php form part of the page not the entire
code, so it would be impossible to determine line 58, but I was hoping
someone would be able to spot the problem or at least explain the
error to a relative newbie.

thanks

[PHP] regarding form submission and option pull down menu

[Bruce Gilbert]

a few more questions about the submission process for a form with
option choices.

say I am using :



Purchase
  Construct Home
  Refinance - No Cash
  Refinance - Cash
Out



is it better to use a name for value (the same as the selection
choice) or a number 1,2,3 etc? (or does it matter).

and for the return info what's the difference between:



and without the isset?

thanks!

[PHP] blank page with PHP

[Bruce Gilbert]

I have a form which displays fine with html, but when I add the php
thew page is blank. I am re-using code which I have on another form so
I know it works. I was wondering if there might be something in the
PHP confuration which may be preventing the page from displaying. IE
error reporting .

Can someone take a look at my configuration settings and see if there
may be something to cause this? Of course there may be something I
missed in the code as weel, but it the past I always got some sort of
error, not just a blank page.

thanks,

[PHP] what should I look for with this error

[Bruce Gilbert]

I get this error a lot, and think it may be an easy fix, but don't
really know what to look for.

'Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE,
expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in
/hsphere/local/home/bruceg/inspired-evolution.com/Contact_Form_Test.php

what does this indicate?

[PHP] need to convert field names into array for form submission

[Bruce Gilbert]

How would I organize this block in order to convert it into an array
for my form field names.

For instance if my field has:

Home Phone Number:   
  
  

I would want something to return an error stating that the phone
number was not completed and not that the field last_4_digits was not
entered.

I believe this can be done with an array.

my error block code is:

function check($fieldname)
   {
   global $err_msg;
   if($_POST[$fieldname] == "") {
   if ( !isset($err_msg)) {
   $err_msg = "You haven't entered
your " . str_replace("_", " ", $fieldname) . "!";
   } elseif ( isset($err_msg)) {
   $err_msg .="You haven't entered
your " . str_replace("_", " ", $fieldname) . "!";
   }
   }
   return $err_msg;
}

any assistance is greatly  appreciated!

when I add that code I can the following error msg when submitting the form.
 " *Warning*: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by

 line 168 is the one with header( 'Location: thanks.php' );
on it.
 can anyone explain why this is happening and how to rectify?

Re: [PHP] Re: form not submitting when I change action from PHP_SELF to thanks page

[Bruce Gilbert]

when I put the die statment in and test the form I get, the html prior to
the form and what I put in my die statement eg:"made it to this point". The
form submits and I get the info, but I am not redirected to the Thanks page.

 My question is how do I determine from this what is causing my error?

[PHP] a couple of problems with PHP form

[Bruce Gilbert]

I am trying to set up some validation for my php form with the email
field using the following code:

if(!eregi("^(.+)@(.+)\\.(.+)$",$_POST['email']))
{
 $error_msg .= "Your email appears to be invalid.";
 $ok = "false";
}


I am trying to accomplish not being able to enter anything other than
a valid email string
this doesn'r seem to be doing anything.

also, I want the field to appear hilighted when there is no
information so I am doing this:


"

and I have an error class set up in my CSS, such as

 .error {border: 1px solid red;}

this is not doinf anything either.

Can somone point out what may be wrong with this PHP code?

thanks,

Mike and all,
 guess I still have something wrong as I am getting this error:
 *Parse error*: parse error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting
T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in *
/hsphere/local/home/bruceg/inspired-evolution.com/Contact_Form.php<http://evolution.com/Contact_Form.php>

  line 52 is:

  how would I fix this error?

[PHP] emailing MySQL list not working

[Bruce Gilbert]

Hello,

I am using a template for an email database. This has a MySQL database
where the end user can sign up to receive my email newsletter, They
subscribe and are entered into a MySQL database that I have set up.
Everything works fine as far as  being entered into the dataase The
problem occurs when I send a test email to the database list. (I am
sending one to myself). The email never gets sent!

the code to send out the email from the MySQL database list is as follows:

\n"; //put your name and
sending address here
$reply_to = "<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n"; //reply-to, insert your address
here,  might not be supported by your server
$return_path = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; // return-path, if you have
one, also might not be supported by your server
$x_sender = "<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n"; //your address, another setting
possibly not supported by your server

$message .= "\n\n This is a double opt-in mailing list. All recipients
have confirmed their subscription. If you no longer wish to receive
these emails, please go to http://$list_owner_domain_name \n
Get this custom mailing list system for 
your site. Go to
http://www.karlcore.com for more info! \n";

// this selects the table and orders the results by the name
// it only selects the listings that have been confirmed
$query = "
SELECT
*
FROM
mailinglist
WHERE
subscribe=1
AND
confirmed=1";

$result = mysql_query($query);

while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$rec_id = $row["rec_id"];
$email = $row["email"];

$recipient = $email;

$headers = "From: $sender";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $reply_to";
$headers .= "Return-Path: $return_path";
$headers .= "X-Sender: $x_sender";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP4\n"; //mailer
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3\n"; //1 UrgentMessage, 3 Normal
$headers .= "Mime-Version:1.0\n Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=\"iso-8859-1\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n";

mail( $recipient, $subject, stripslashes($message), $headers );
sleep(1);

}

// run second query to automatically dump unsubscribed email addresses.
$query2 = "
DELETE FROM
mailinglist
WHERE
subscribe='0'
AND
confirmed='0' ";

//run the query
mysql_query($query2, $link) or die (mysql_error());

mysql_close();

header("location: mailsent.php");
exit;
?>

The form is located here:

http://www.inspired-evolution.com/sendmailform.php

let me know if I need to provide any more information.

Thanks!

I don't suppose you meant like this : $headers = "From:

or is it without the ( )?

Sorry for the newbie question...

I did a search on php.net but didn't find my answer.

what does \r\n do as opposed to just \n?

and yes, I know what  \n does.
