Yeah, sorry I mistyped it. But thank you for the response, I actually originally did do exactly what you said, but it did not work.

Hey everyone. So i'm trying to json_encode one of my arrays like such: heres an example of how the array is being created (From the array results, everything seems to be fitting OK into the actual array creation) but it's just the actual array creating a multi demension after each result. $num = 1; $num2 = 1; $i = 0; if ($num > 0) { $array[$i][1] = 40; } if ($num2 > 0) { $array[$i][2] = 50; } ++$i; I'm trying to achive this: var array_one_results = new Array(); array_one[1][0] = 40; array_one[1][0] = 50; array_one[2][1] = 40; array_one[2][1] = 50; right now, this is my results: var array_name = new Array(); array_name["0"] = new Array();array_taken["0"]["0"] = "10"; array_taken["0"]["1"] = "20"; array_name["1"] = new Array();array_taken["1"]["0"] = "10"; array_taken["1"]["1"] = "20"; array_name["2"] = new Array();array_taken["2"]["0"] = "10"; array_taken["2"]["1"] = "20"; array_name["3"] = new Array();array_taken["3"]["0"] = "10"; array_taken["3"]["1"] = "20"; array_name["4"] = new Array();array_taken["4"]["0"] = "10"; array_taken["4"]["1"] = "20"; It's creating a new array for each. If anyone could help me through this, i'd really appreciate it. I'm encoding it with this: function js_str($s) { return '"'.addcslashes($s, "\0..\37\"\\").'"'; } function js_array($array, $keys_array) { foreach ($array as $key => $value) { $new_keys_array = $keys_array; $new_keys_array[] = $key; if(is_array($value)) { echo 'array_name'; foreach($new_keys_array as $key) { echo '["'.$key.'"]'; } echo ' = new Array();'; js_array($value, $new_keys_array); } else { echo 'array_taken'; foreach($new_keys_array as $key) { echo '["'.$key.'"]'; } echo ' = '.js_str3($value).";\n"; } } }

I read your post and: noones going to hand you everything you're looking for, it ruins the whole purpose of learning, but. i figured i'd shoot you in the right direction, so I whipped up a quick little example of how a basic registration process works. I used "name" and "email" you can problably go from there, by filling in a password, or whatever else you'd wan't. I showed you an example by using rowCount() for checking if a user exists in the database. Lastly, if no errors exist, it gets posted in the database. //connection to the database. $user = 'dbuserhere'; $pass = 'dbpasshere'; $dbh = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=dbnamehere', $user, $pass); //creat account. if (isset($_POST['register'])) //triggered from the user clicking on 'Create Account' { if (empty($_POST['name'])) { $errors[] = 'Error: Name may not be empty.'; } elseif(empty($_POST['email'])) { $errors[] = 'Error: E-mail may not be empty.'; } //check if the name being entered already exists in the database or not. $name = htmlentities($_POST['name']); $query = $dbh->prepare('SELECT `name` FROM `users` WHERE `name` = :name'); $query->execute(array( ':name' => $name )); if ($query->rowCount() > 0) { $errors[] = 'Error: The name you entered already exists.'; } //check if there were any errors during the process. if (!empty($errors)) { foreach ($errors as $error) { echo $error; } } else { //no errors, so insert the data. $email = htmlentities($_POST['email']); $query = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO `users` (`name`,`email`) VALUES(:name,:email)'); $query->execute(array( ':name' => $name, ':email' => $email )); echo 'Thank you '.$name.' for signing up!'; } } //form for your create account. echo '<form method="POST"> Name: <input required type="text" name="name"><br /> E-mail: <input required type="email" name="email"> <input type="submit" name="register" value="Create Account"> </form>'; ?> The login is basically the same thing as the register page. You have your form, <form method="POST"> Name: <input required type="text" name="name"> Pass: <input reuired type="password" name="pass"> call your form if (isset($_POST['login'])) { // 1. error check // 2. check if the user exists. // 3. if the user exits, fetch the users data. // 4. check the user pass against the form pass. // 5. create your session. } $name = htmlentities($_POST['name']); $query = $dbh->prepare('SELECT `pass`,`id`,`name` FROM `users` WHERE `name` = :name'); $query->execute(array( ':name' = $name )); if ($query->rowCount() > 0) //user exists. else, error. { $row = $query->fetch(); $user_pass = $row['pass']; $form_pass = htmlentities(['pass']); if ($form_pass != $user_pass) { echo 'oops! your passwords do not match!'; } else { //passwords match! $_SESSION['userid'] = $row['id']; //creating your session variable. header('Location: members.php'); } On your members page, just check to see if the $_SESSION is empty or not, if it' empty, direct the user back to the login page, if the session is not empty, stay logged in.. to query the logged user: $query = $dbh->prepare('SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `id` = :id'); $query->execute(array(':id'=>$_SESSION['userid'])); $user = $query->fetch(); $username = $user['name']; $userid = $user['id']; $email = $user['email']; I got bored, decided to hopefully steer you in the right direction.

I thought i needed the & operator before $value, but nope.

So i'm writing a script for a game online, basically it's a clan battle. What happens is, users within the clan attack (each seperatly) at the end of the round, all the users attacks get added up, then subtracts from the boss' health. if the boss isn't dead, the boss attacks. now this is the part that isn't working properly whats supposed to be happening is: after the boss attacks, if any of the users health within the clan attack falls to 0 or below, they get dropped from the array, now this works, but only during the 1st round. foreach ($attackers as $key => $value) { $value['hp'] -= $boss_atk; if ($value['hp'] < 1) { unset($attackers[$key]); } } After it checks if anyones health falls below 0, it than checks if anyones left in the array. If someone is left, then it sets back to the users attack, and redoes the loop. I'm hoping fresh eyes could lend me a hand! Heres the whole script: <?php require 'db.connection.php'; $raidid = 1; $raidover = 0; $attackers = array(); $user_query = $dbh->prepare('SELECT `hp`,`attack`,`criticalhit`,`block`,`username` FROM `stats` WHERE `raidid` = :raidid'); $user_query->execute(array(':raidid'=>$raidid)); $boss_hp = 5000; //testing purposes. $boss_atk = 100; //testing purposes. foreach ($user_query as $row) { $attackers[] = $row; //sets the array for users in attack. } while ($raidover == 0) { /* * clan's turn to attack. * each user within the clan attacks seperatly * they will continue to attack as long as their HP is over 0. */ static $attackTurn = "p"; if($attackTurn === "p") { $totalAttack = 0; foreach ($attackers as $key => $value) { echo $value['username'].' attacks for '.$value['attack'].'<br />'; $totalAttack += $value["attack"]; } } $boss_hp -= $totalAttack; if ($boss_hp < 1) { echo 'Crew has won!'; $raidover = 1; break; } /* * boss' turn to attack. */ $attackTurn = "b"; if($attackTurn === "b") { echo 'Boss attacks for '.$boss_atk.'<br />'; } /* * if any of the users have less than 0 health points * delete them from the loop. */ foreach ($attackers as $key => $value) { $value['hp'] -= $boss_atk; if ($value['hp'] < 1) { unset($attackers[$key]); } } /* * if there arn't any users left in the array * the raid is over, the boss wins. */ if (empty($attackers)) { echo 'Boss has won!'; $raidover = 1; break; } $attackTurn = "p"; //back to the top of the loop. } ?>

Honestly what I did was took the whole cron job away.I realized it probably wasn't even needed, and was kind of a worthless script. What I did was add the necessary updates during the time the item was being equipped. So when it was being equipped, the stats +, and when it de-equipped the stats - this brought my server back to life.! I guess case is solved Thank you for the help everyone who tried, psycho thank you for actually trying to show me examples instead of telling me to go read about something lol. My server isn't running 4 CPU'S anymore. anyways for shits and giggles this is how worthless this script is. $userQuery = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users"); while ($user = mysql_fetch_array($userQuery,MYSQL_ASSOC)) { $item = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select * from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$user[id]' and slot='Weapon'"));

Psyco thank you! And ya, i am using all those fields, i just didnt post that part (its for when i add all them together) so thats how i do a join query. I've been wondering how to do that for some time now, everything i ask how someone tells me to read about it on google lol. I'm going to try this, thank you so much. its weird, the site i'm running worked fine for over a month, and then all of a sudden it started to crash. I've been told its my queries. So i'm trying to fix all of them, and this page i posted is one of the culprits. Let me see if i can implement this. I also realized I really did a terrible job providing information for anyone to help me. :/ lol

I'm really just adding everything together. user jewel_atttack, jewel_hp, jewel_eph say its attack i'm adding equipment (weapon,shield, ect) + user jewel_attack + level_attack, then i'd add all the HP'S together. Then the final resullt, update the users

The user table has jewel_attack,jewel_hp,jewel_eph. The level; has attack,hp (for their level) user_equipment has the values stored aswell. What do you want me to post (only reason i didnt post is usually people think i'm just expecting it to be remade) but that isn't the case, just need some guidance on how to optimize this the correct way. if your willing to help, tell me what I need to post.

Thank you for the replies. Kitchen, yes your right i'm trying to gather all the information about the users 'items' he has, its an RPG game. Basically he has 9 slots (head, weapon, shield ect) And each slot has data like 'attack, hp, critical, ect' Now, what this script does is every 5 minutes check to users equipment, along with his level, and gives him the correct stats based off what equipment he has on + his level. The script i have is completely lagging my site down. I get stuck with a 'website is currently offline' error from cloudflare. I've had my server admin tell me its this script running 100% of 4 CPU'S every 5 minutes. Its a useless script basically and i'm not familiar enough with joining tables to create this script to get faster.I really appreciate the responses. Lol, it sucks this 1 script can cause my whole site to fail.

I love more puzzles.

wait, wouldn't it work if i took out the AND slot='weapon' part, and just did mysql_query("SELECT from user_equipment WHERE equipped=Yes and owner=$userid) lol?! it would be basically doing the same exact thing, wouldn't it.. if i'm wrong tell me please, but i think that might be the solution here.

The only way i know how too. Which is what i'm trying to figure out, there has to be a better solution.

$item = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select SUM(attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap) from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Weapon'")); $attack = $item['SUM(attack)']; $hp = $item['SUM(hp)']; $critical = $item['SUM(critical)']; $aph = $item['SUM(attacks_per_hour)']; $max = $item['SUM(max_attacks)']; $cap = $item['SUM(attack_cap)']; $item2 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select SUM(attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap) from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Shield'")); $attack2 = $item2['SUM(attack)']; $hp2 = $item2['SUM(hp)']; $critical2 = $item2['SUM(critical)']; $aph2 = $item2['SUM(attacks_per_hour)']; $max2 = $item2['SUM(max_attacks)']; $cap2 = $item2['SUM(attack_cap)']; $total_attack = $attack+attack2; so this is what I got from what you said to do (i think this is how you meant anyways, i tried.) (so now i have like 10 other queries.) So now, how can the problem with these useless 10 queries. :/

I see about the sum. Can i wrap everything inside 1 sum? like sum(attack,hp,critical) ect

Lol! thats what i'm saying. haha, which is what i'm asking for help for. Any examples on how to make this better. As of right now, this script is running 4 CPU'S 100% I'm trying to get better at this

Hello everyone, back for some advice, well really help. I'm running a cron job that is basically lagging my entire site. I have 10 queries, that are all running through about 600,00 rows. I'm in some need of help. I've read about joining queries but i'm really stuck. Could someone help me optimize this page to help me save my site? $userQuery = mysql_query("SELECT id,jewel_attack,jewel_hp,jewel_eph,jewel_critical,jewel_aph,jewel_max,jewel_cap FROM users"); while ($user = mysql_fetch_array($userQuery,MYSQL_ASSOC)) { $userid = $user['id']; $item = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Weapon'")); $item11 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Body'")); $item22 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Shield'")); $item33 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Head'")); $item4 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Belt'")); $item5 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Foot'")); $item6 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Pants'")); $item7 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Ring'")); $item8 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Neck'")); $itemorb1 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Orb1'")); $itemorb2 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Orb2'")); $itemorb3 = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query("select attack,hp,critical,attacks_per_hour,max_attacks,attack_cap from user_equipment where equipped='Yes' and owner='$userid' and slot='Orb3'")); $level = mysql_query("select * from level"); while ($lvl = mysql_fetch_array($level)) { next comes adding everything together. $item1['attacks']+$item2['attacks'] ect ect ect. for everything 'attack','critical', ect (everything inside the select in the user_equipment selects. This page will lag my entire site (well it is) i'm running nginx, site used to have load times of .001 seconds, now some pages load in 14 seconds. But this page, is running 4 CPU'S at 100% every 5 minutes (since thats when its time to load) if someone can help me, i'd really love it. Optimizing is rough lol.

Also, i very much appreciate you're responses kicken.

I see what you're saying. I'm still only a few years into this gig, I still take the paths I know. Could you guide me as an example? foreach ($item_id as $value) { echo $value; echo "<br/>"; } if i did it like that would it work?

Ok, now for the last part. How can I get it to when I echo out the results, to not echo out results for all the items stored in this. I only wan't the selected ones to echo.

Well, my modified code got it to work, now for testing if multiple (checks will pass off!) wow. I always do this to myself, think i'm stranded, try again, and find my problems. You're fast bro, you noticed the "" quick

I actually noticed the single quotes I had in there, exactly what you were talking about, will the "" work? thats what I had changed them too in my modified version.

I re-modified my code a bit <?php if($_POST["submit"] == "Award") { $sec_answer = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['answer']); $user_answer = $stat[sec_answer]; if ($sec_answer != $user_answer) { echo "<script>alert(\"Your security answer did not match. Please try again.\");</script>"; } else { $count = 0; $crewid = $stat['crewid']; $crew_vault_award_result = mysql_query("select * from user_equipment where crew = '$crewid' order by `name` ASC")or die(mysql_error()); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($crew_vault_award_result)) { $item_name = $row["name"]; $item_id = $row["id"]; $award_target_id = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["username"]); $award_name_result = mysql_query("select * from `users` where id = $award_target_id")or die(mysql_error()); $award_user = mysql_result($award_name_result,0,"name"); if($_POST["v_selected_$count"] == "$item_id") { $date = date("M/d/Y g:iA"); mysql_query("insert into award_log (crew, log, date) values($stat[crewid],'<font color=#949477>$stat[name] Gave ".$item_name." to ".$award_user.".</font>','".$date."')"); mysql_query("UPDATE user_equipment SET owner = '$_POST[username]', crew='0' where id = '$item_id'") or die ( mysql_error ()); echo "succeed."; } else { echo "error."; } $count++; } } }

He isn't treating you like crap, he was just trying to get you to find you're own error, him telling you the exact problem isn't going to solve anything, you'll end up posting the same question next time. look at the error close, Error: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[' in /home/a1922355/public_html/dbtest.php on line 6 now, look at you're code. <?php include('includes/db_connect.php'); mysql_query('SELECT * FROM members'); echo ("".srow['username'[]); ?> basically, you're closing ['username'] like ['username'[ which is causing errors for you.

Hello everyone hows everyone's night.. I'm coding this page basically a 'vault', storing inventory. Basically in this vault, i'm using Javascript to act like a checkbox (so when you click the images) it checks off the item. The end result is, your supposed to be able to re-ward these inventory items to other members in you're group. Now, i'm running into a problem with the reward aspect. I get all the inventory ID'S to show up (using an onmousover as my test to make sure the id's are correct) however; during my award, i can't seem to get it to run properly. I've rescripted it 4 times, nothing will work. <?php <?php if($_POST["submit"] == "Award") { $sec_answer = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['answer']); $user_answer = $stat[sec_answer]; if ($sec_answer != $user_answer) { echo "<script>alert(\"Your security answer did not match. Please try again.\");</script>"; } else { $count = 0; $selected_item = mysql_fetch_array($_POST['v_selected_$count']); $award = mysql_fetch_array ( mysql_query ( "SELECT * FROM user_equipment WHERE crew = $stat[crewid]" ) ); $award_itemname = $award['name']; $award_itemid = $award['id']; if($selected_item == $award_itemid) { /* lazy fetch just to see if it works */ $award_username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $user = mysql_fetch_array ( mysql_query ( "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = '$award_username'") ); $username = $user['name']; $userid = $user['id']; $date = date("M/d/Y g:iA"); mysql_query("insert into award_log (crew, log, date) values($stat[crewid],'<font color=#949477>$stat[name] Gave ".$award_itemname." to ".$username.".</font>','".$date."')"); mysql_query("UPDATE user_equipment SET owner = '$userid', crew='0' where id = '$award_itemid'") or die ( mysql_error ()); echo "Item Awarded."; } else { echo "something wen't wrong."; } $count++; } } what ends up happening is, it chooses the wrong item being awarded. my checkbox name is 'v_selected_$count' the value is $itemid. cannot get it to work :/ help please would be great, some type of guidence, someone work with me, i'd love it! hehe
