    IF inside IF

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    Hi all.
    I have tried to search answer but havent got this solved.
    write.php receives $_POST values from another file. Values are passed as should. I tested many times with echo $value.

    [code]if (($cat != "new")  && ($newcat != ""))
                      { 
                              echo "Select \"New category\" to create it.<br>";
                              $false++;
                        }
    [/code]

    [code]if ($cat_new != "")
              {
                      if ($cat != "new")
                      { 
                              echo "Select \"New category\" to create it.<br>";
                              $false++;
                        }
              }
    [/code]

    Both ways, i allways end up on $false++ even the values are right.
    So the idea is, that if $cat_new != "", then $cat must be "new" or $false increases.

    links_db/files to select box.(solved)

    Well, some solution. Not beautifull but it works  ;D
    [code]function list_catagories() {
    $folder = opendir("links_db/"); // täältä luetaan tiedostot
    $file = readdir($folder);
    while ($file) {

    if ($file != "." && $file != "..") { // jos ei ole hak. niin sitten se on .txt kun muita filuja siellä ei ole.
    $temp = file("links_db/".$file);
    $cat_name = $temp[0];
    $cat_name = str_replace(array("\r", "\n"), "", $cat_name); // draizin kiva rivinvaihto poistaja
    echo "<option value=\"".$file."\">".$cat_name."</option>";  // tungetaan tiedoston nimi ja ensimmäinen rivi valinta laatikkoon
    }
    $file = readdir($folder);
    }
    closedir($folder);
    [/code]

    links_db/files to select box.(solved)

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    I try to readdir(links_db/) and fgets(links_db/filename) first line of file.
    Idea is to create selection box, where $file is value and first line of file is what is output on selection box.
    [code]<?php

    function list_catagories() {
    $folder = opendir("links_db/"); // from this directory we want files listed
    $file = readdir($folder);
    while ($file) {
    if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {                                                                // if it's not dir it's .txt (no else files on that directory)
    $handlefile = @fopen($file, "r"); // we open it
    $cat_name = fgets($handlefile, 4096); // first line is name of category
    $cat_name = str_replace(array("\r", "\n"), "", $cat_name); // EOL marks out of there
    echo "<option value=\"".$file."\">".$cat_name."</option>";    // and let's spit it on <option></option>
    fclose($file);   // this file is done

    }
    $file = readdir($folder);
    }
    closedir($folder);
    }

    ?>
    <form action="links.php" method="post">
    <p>
    <select name="category">
    <option value="">Links Main menu</option>
    <?php list_catagories(); ?>
    </select>
    <input type="submit" value="Ok">
    </p>
    </form>
    [/code]

    First listed file wont open and it's $cat_name dont show up on select box. Only empty line.
    When i choose one of those values from <form> nothing happens.
    Here is links.php what uses code above.

    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    <HR>
    <?php

    // selected category
    $cat_file = $_POST['category'];

    $handle = @fopen("links_db/".$cat_file, "r"); // let's open selected link list file

    if ($handle) // file handling/reading
    {
    while (!feof($handle)) // file reading loop start
    {
    $address = fgets($handle, 4096); // first line is URL
    $site = fgets($handle, 4096); // secons line is name of site
    $desc = fgets($handle, 4096); // third is description
         
    if ($address != "") // if there is anything to output
    {
    echo "<li><b>"; // font, size and colors. <li> too
    echo "<a href=\"".$address."\" target=\"Blank\" >".$site."</a></b><br>"; // we spit our link out on screen
    echo "<font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\" color=\"#FFFFBB\">".$desc."</li><br><br></font>"; // let's not forget description
    } // end of (if $address) checking
    } // file reading loop end
    fclose($handle); // close file
    }

    ?> [/code]

    All help is welcomed. Im pretty lost with this one now.

    php script that reads from .txt file.(solved)

    Ok, this one is solved. [code] $cat_name = fgets($handle, 4096); // name of category  IE:(ASCII Art Websites)
    $cat_name = str_replace(array("\r", "\n"), "", $cat_name); // EOL marks out of there
    $cat_file = fgets($handle, 4096); // name of it's link's list. ASCII Art Websites = 1.txt
    $cat_file = str_replace(array("\r", "\n"), "", $cat_file); // EOL marks out of there
    [/code]

    End of line marks readed from .txt files were the messy ones. Thanks all for helping me.

    Hi.

    I doubt it's up to select_catagories.php. I have to specify this. IE users can see and use select box, but they cant see link list created after button press.

    So i doubt, problem is on this one [code] echo "<font face=\"Arial\" size=\"2\" color=\"#FFFFBB\"><li>"; // font, size and colors. <li> too
    echo "<b><a href=\"".$address."\" target=\"Blank\" >".$site."</a></b><br></li>"; // we spit our link out on screen
    echo $desc."<br><br></font>"; // let's not forget description
    } // end of (if $address) checking[/code]
