Is there another way to pull this offmaybe if it was a Windows 
Server ?
or compressing the text file and an ico file on the server before 
download ?

nah, you can't embed binary data (icon file) into text file...

[PHP] Multidimensional Array advice from a newbie

2004-06-12 Thread grahama
Hi :)
I am creating an XML file out of a mysql query with nested arrays.
Currently I can get 1 element and 1 child with a properly formatted XML 
file with the below script .

My question is: How do  I  add 3 to 4 more child elements to the below 
'playlist' array ?
Currently ,I have one parent 'Artist' and one child 'english' ...
I need to add more child elements to the 'Artist' array like urlPath, 
spanish, biography, etc

My addled thoughts...
So, would the multidimensional array be like:
$playlist[   [$artist [ ]   ][$media[ ]  ]	[$mediaElement]  
]?

for the  'trackName' child:
$playlist [ "Artist 1" ] [ "Track 1" ]   [ "trackName" ]
or for 'urlPath' child :
$playlist [ "Artist 1" ] [ "Track 1" ] [ "urlPath" ]
Do I have to add another dimension to the 'playlist' array? Do I need 
another  foreach loop ?
Is there an easier more efficient way to do this?
Be nice to spell out the schema in some way in the script...in case you 
need to add more levels...like a 'subCategory'

I am a bit new to this so any help would be greatly appretiated  
head is spinning a bit


$sql = 'SELECT artist.artist_name, media.english, media.path ';
$sql .= 'FROM media, artist ';
$sql .= 'WHERE artist.artist_id = media.artist_id LIMIT 0, 30 ';
$result = mysql_query($sql);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$playlist[$row['artist_name']] [] = $row['english'];
//would like to add more children here...
}
$xml = "\n";
foreach ($playlist as $artist => $media)
{
$num_media = count($media);
$xml .= "\n";   

$xml .= "\t\n";   
$xml .= "\t\t".$artist."\n";
$xml .= "\t\n";  

$xml .= "\t\n";
foreach ($media as $mediaVal)
{
$xml .= "\t\t\n";
$xml .= "\t\t\t".$mediaVal."\n";
///add more children
///add more children
$xml .= "\t\t\n";   

}

$xml .= "\t\n";   
$xml .= "\n";  
}
$xml .= "\n";
print $xml

[PHP] how to iterate over fields names with mysql_fetch_assoc

2004-06-19 Thread grahama
How do I iterate over fields when I perform the below script:
each row has: artist_name,urlPath,biography as fields
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
# if the current field name  is 'artist_name', do something
switch($GetCurrentFieldNameintheCurrentRow)
 {
case $row[ 'field name is now: artist_name']
//do something
break;
 }
If I write the below code, I only get the first field name of each 
row...which makes sense
In this case, I get 'artist_name'

while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$fieldName= key($row);
echo 'fieldName is: '.$fieldName."\n";
}
many thanks :)

Re: [PHP] how to iterate over fields names with mysql_fetch_assoc

2004-06-19 Thread grahama
thanks...that is what  I  had used previously :)
Another php coder had given me a hint that I could just take each 
incoming row on the fly with $row['artist_name'] without reading 
everything into an array:

What I had previously was:
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
  $playlist[] = $row;  //read in entire array before doing anything
 }
# get row count
$c= count($playlist);
for ($x = 0; $x < $c; $x++)
{
  foreach($playlist[$x] as $key => $val)
  {
switch ($key)
{
# if key name is 'artist_name', do something
case 'artist_name' :

break;
# if key name is 'urlPath', do something
case 'urlPath' :

break;
}
}
}
is there a way to grab the info on the fly without reading the $result 
into an array ?

many thanks as I am on my 3rd week with php

[PHP] attach ICO [icon] files to a file thru php

2004-06-23 Thread grahama
is it possible to attach a custom icon [like an ICO file on the server] 
 to a file thru php ?

I want to automatically generate  a generic text file [ which is XML 
that launches a Quicktime Movie] that has a custom icon attached to 
it...
then, I want to automatically send that newly created file in an 
email...with a user id code for verification

the php used to generate the text file [minus the icon] would be 
something like:

' . "\n" .
'' . "\n" .
'';
Header('Content-Type: application/x-quicktimeplayer');
Header('Content-Length: '.strlen($buffer));
Header('Content-disposition: inline; filename=theMovie.qtl');
print $buffer;
?>

is this possible?
