    [SOLVED] user profile help

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    That means that your username/password to link to the MySQL database is incorrect. Make sure you have the right user/pass. Your connection code should look something like this:

     

    <?php

// Connect to the database
$host = "localhost"; // db host
$user = "***"; // db username
$pass = "***"; // db password
$db = "***"; // db name

$connection = mysql_connect ($host, $user, $pass) or die ("Unable to connect"); 
mysql_select_db ($db) or die ("Unable to select database"); 
?>

    [SOLVED] Help with multiple variables and $_GET

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    I don't believe I'm missing a } at the end of the script (just ran it through Notepad 2). I'm getting the error that I have coded in: "The search failed to find the title of the Bungie Weekly Update story. Please make sure that the title is EXACT and the spelling is correct. Please try again or see the list of all the updates here".

    Ok, I've changed that also. But the second page still shows the "not found" message.

     

    <?php
if ($_GET['type'] == "title") {

   if(!isset($_GET['page'])){
       $page = 1;
   } else {
       $page = $_GET['page'];
   }

   $max_results = 10;
   $from = (($page * $max_results) - $max_results); 
   $result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM bnetupdates WHERE title = '$_GET[word]' LIMIT $from, $max_results");

   if(mysql_num_rows($result)>0)
   {
    while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
       extract($row);
          print "<p><table border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"5\" cellpadding=\"0\">
          <tr><td><img src=\"$image\"></td><td valign=\"center\"><a href=\"archive.php?id=$id\">$title</a><br /><font size=\"1\">Posted on: $date</font></td></tr></table></p>";
       }

   $total_results_q = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM bnetupdates");
   $total_results = mysql_num_rows($total_results_q);
   $total_pages = ceil($total_results / $max_results);
   echo "<center>Select a Page<br />";

   if($page > 1){
       $prev = ($page - 1);
       echo "<a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?word=$word&type=title&page=$prev\"><<Previous</a> ";
   }

   for($i = 1; $i <= $total_pages; $i++){
       if(($page) == $i){
           echo "$i ";
           } else {
               echo "<a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?word=$word&type=title&page=$i\">$i</a> ";
       }
   }

   if($page < $total_pages){
       $next = ($page + 1);
       echo "<a href=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?word=$word&type=title&page=$next\">Next>></a>";
       }
   }
   else{
        print "<p>The search failed to find the title of the Bungie Weekly Update story. Please make sure that the title is EXACT and the spelling is correct. Please try again or see the list of all the updates <a href=\"archive.php\">here</a>.</p>";

   }
?>

Any suggestions?

    Try this:

    <?php

// Connect to the database
$host = "HOST"; // db host
$user = "USERNAME"; // db username
$pass = "PASSWORD"; // db password
$db = "DATABASE NAME"; // db name

$connection = mysql_connect ($host, $user, $pass) or die ("Unable to connect"); 
mysql_select_db ($db) or die ("Unable to select database"); 
?>

     

    Remember to replace all the capitalized words with your own.

    ...but it still doesn't work. First page (w/o ?page=1 in the URL) shows up fine, but the next page doesn't show up. Can you see any additional problems with the code?

    It shows the first page of results just fine (without the page variable in the URL). But whenever I go to another page of results, it shows "The search failed to find..." error message. Can anyone help please?

    [SOLVED] variables/date problem

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    Ok, I have a problem. I have a code (mostly built from the ground-up by myself with a little help from others) to have a simple news system. The two main variables I have problems with are "Date" and "id". I so far have the script set up so that when a user types in "index.php?Date=whatever", it'll show all the news for that date. If a user types in "index.php?id=whatever", it only shows that specific news post. So far so good. Let me show you a part of the script first.

     

    $Date variable script:

    if($_GET['date']) {
  // Get date from _GET param or current date if not available
  $_GET['date'] = @trim(stripslashes($_GET['date']));
  $date = ($_GET['date'] && !empty($_GET['date'])) ? date('Y-m-d', strtotime(trim($_GET['date']))) : date('Y-m-d');
  
  $result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM news WHERE Date = "' . $date . '" ORDER BY Time');
  $curtime = time();
  if ($result && mysql_num_rows($result)) {
    $numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);
    $rowcount = 1;
         
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { 
  print "<b>{$row['Title']}</b><br />
{$row['News']}<br />
<span style=\"font-size:10px\"><b>Posted by:</b> {$row['Posted_by']}   ({$row['Date']}   {$row['Time']})   <a href=\"http://www.allaroundhalo.org/index.php?id={$row['id']}\">Permalink</a>)</span><br /><br />"; 
}      
      print "<br />";
      ++$rowcount;
    }     
}

     

    I need to have the script check today's date and get news for today if the "?date=" part isn't typed in the URL (ex: index.php). BUT I can't allow today's news to show when a user is requesting a specific date or id. Any suggestions? Any help will be appreciated.

    Speeding up the process

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    Hello.

    I have simple news management system on my index.php page. The following is the code for the main part of the code.

     

    <?php
  
include 'info.php'; ?>
  
  // Connect to server
  $dbac = mysql_connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pass); 
  $today = getdate();
  
  // Select database
  mysql_select_db ($db_name) or die ("Cannot connect to database");
  
  // Get date from _GET param or current date if not available
  $_GET['date'] = @trim(stripslashes($_GET['date']));
  $date = ($_GET['date'] && !empty($_GET['date'])) ? date('Y-m-d', strtotime(trim($_GET['date']))) : date('Y-m-d');
  
  $result = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM news WHERE Date = "' . $date . '" ORDER BY Time');
  $curtime = time();
  if ($result && mysql_num_rows($result)) {
    $numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);
    $rowcount = 1;
         
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { 
  print "<b>{$row['Title']}</b><br />
{$row['News']}<br />
<b>Posted by:</b> {$row['Posted_by']}   ({$row['Date']}   {$row['Time']})<br /><br />"; 
}      
      print "<br />";
      ++$rowcount;
    }
  
?>

     

    I have other pages that have coding related to this, but I believe that this is the main part. It works fine, but it takes a while for the page to load (compared to the loading time without the code, which takes less than a second). Is there any way to speed it up?

    Hello.
    I have this code:

      // Connection information
      $db_host = "localhost";
      $db_user = "**";

        while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
         
          while(list($var, $val) = each($row)) {
            extract ($row);
            print "<b>$Title</b><br />$News<br /><font size='2'>$Date &nbsp; $Time</font><br />";
          }

          ++$rowcount;
        }
      }
     
    ?> 
    [/code]

    I have a table (called news) in a MySQL database with 5 fields: (News, Title, Date, Time). The code works. However, when I display the results, it shows the same thing 5 times.

    This is what shows:

    How can I make it so that it only shows a news post ONCE?

    PS: I think it's because of the extract($row) thing.

    [SOLVED] Dynamic URLs

    Ok, I have the following.
    [code]
    <?php
    // Connection information
    $db_host = "localhost";
    $db_user = "**";
    $db_pass = "**";
    $db_name = "**";

    // Connect to server
    $dbac = mysql_connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pass);

    // Select database
    mysql_select_db ($db_name) or die ("Cannot connect to database");

    $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM news WHERE Date");

    if ($result && mysql_num_rows($result)) {
          $numrows = mysql_num_rows($result);
          $rowcount = 1;
           
          while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
               
            while(list($var, $val) = each($row)) {
                print "<B>$var</B>: $val<br />";
            }
     
            print "<br />";
            ++$rowcount;
          }
      }
    ?>
    [/code]

    I have a table named "news", and 3 fields: "News", "Posted_by", "Date" (in DATE format). I can retrieve the data from the database.

    All I need is a way to only view the news posted for that day using dynamic URL's (index.php?Date=2007-01-07) should only show news posted on Jan. 7, 2007. Can anybody point me the right way?
