    Rolling out a feature.

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    I had a question and couldn't really pin-point a forum to put this post in, so I hope this suits my topic.

     

    You always hear "Facebook is rolling out a new feature"; most recently "Twitter is rolling out the New Twitter.com" but it only releases to so many people at time. Or friends will get features on Facebook before I do (like I couldn't like threaded comments until about a month after all my other friends could).

     

    I was just wondering if anyone knows the actual method or how large sites go about releasing new features to users?

    Arrays and such. Need help.

    Alrighty,

     

    Say I have a site where there are these fields in the db.

     

    TABLE: photo_package

    FIELDS: product_id, gallery_id, title, productfam

     

    I need to, on a page, give every product in the family to display.

     

    So say I have.

     

    DATA:

    1, 4, mac book, 4

    2, 4, laptop, 4

    3, 3, some book, 4,3

     

    The last one has a productfam of 4 and 3 cause when on the 'Some Book' page, it should show Mac Book and Laptop as part of it's product family.

     

    What would be the best way to approach getting these values?

     

    Thanks in advance.

    Unable to loop through <SELECT>...

    in PHP Coding Help

    Not sure if this helps at all, but you don't need to escape the quotations when using single quotes

     

    $theusers .= '<select name="adj[]"><option value="">Please Select</option>';

     

    Also, in your second piece of code, $i has no limit.

    something like while($i < count($someVAR)

     

    add this to your code and tell me what you get

    print_r($_POST['adj']);

    [SOLVED] Foreach problem.

    My script runs like this:

     

    <?php
$parents = 'overview,brands,specs';
$parents = explode(",", $parents);

if (file_exists($filename)) {
    $xml = simplexml_load_file($filename, 'SimpleXMLElement', LIBXML_NOCDATA);

} else {
    exit('Failed to open test.xml.');
}

echo '<form name="editXML" method="POST" action="#">';
foreach($parents as $parent) {
foreach($xml->$parent->children() as $name => $node) {

	if(trim($node) == "") {
		foreach($xml->$parent->$name->children() as $child => $body) {
		echo '<b>'.$parent.' - '.$name.' - '.$child.'</b><br />';
		echo "\n";
	echo '<textarea name="'.$parent.'-'.$name.'-'.$child.'" style="width: 500px; height: 200px;">'.trim($body).'</textarea><br /><br />';
	echo "\n";
		}
	} else {
	echo '<b>'.$parent.' - '.$name.'</b><br />';
	echo "\n";
	echo '<textarea name="'.$parent.'-'.$name.'" style="width: 500px; height: 200px;">'.trim($node).'</textarea><br /><br />';
	echo "\n";
	}
}
}

echo '<input type="submit" name="editXML" />';
echo '</form>';
?>

     

    The problem lies with: foreach($xml->$parent->children() as $name => $node) {

     

    Not every .xml file has "overview, brands, specs" .. in this case, this file is missing "brands" is there a way I can argue if on of the $parents does not exist?

     

    Thanks in advance for help. :)

    SimpleXML trouble...

Bafferts is the result of four generations of knowledge and refinement by one of the world's foremost gin distillers, the Hayman family, who have been distilling quality gin in the heart of London for over 200 years.

The Bafferts recipe has been handed down through the Hayman family since the 1800s. To achieve its refreshing taste we infuse a special blend of botanicals that include orange peel, lemon peel, coriander, and a hint of juniper that compliment each other. The result is a lighter style of gin that is perfect for those who crave a crisp pure taste in a classic martini or gin and tonic.

    SimpleXML trouble...

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    What I am aiming to do, is display an XML file inside a <textarea> using the SimpleXML class.

     

    Here's what I have so far, but it isn't giving me anything what I'd like it to:

    <?php
  

$filename = 'data/brands_bafferts.xml';



// The file test.xml contains an XML document with a root element
// and at least an element /[root]/title.

if (file_exists($filename)) {
    $xml = simplexml_load_file($filename, 'SimpleXMLElement', LIBXML_NOCDATA);

} else {
    exit('Failed to open test.xml.');
}

echo '<br /><br /><br />';


foreach($xml->children() as $stuff) {
echo '<'.$stuff->getName().'> <br />';
echo $stuff.' <br />';

foreach($stuff->children() as $bodies) {
	echo '< BODY '.$bodies->getName().'> <br />';
					echo $bodies.' <br />';

						if($bodies->getName() != $stuff->getName()) {
						echo '</'.$stuff->getName().'> <br />';
						}
		foreach($bodies->children() as $copies) {
			echo '<'.$copies->getName().'> <br />';
			echo $copies.' <br />';
										if($copies->getName() != $bodies->getName()) {
						echo '</'.$bodies->getName().'> <br />';
						}
			}
	 }
}




?>

     

    Help is appreciated!

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Well, I know how to manually grab source code and break it apart into stuff I want via Regex.

    But is there a way to have a script run and grab static information from a site, without you manually having to do it?

     

    Thanks in advance for the help. :)

    [SOLVED] retrieving last record from mysql

    in PHP Coding Help

    Posted

    yeah i knew that, but like i said; i dont want to use two seperate queries. i am also using $result to display all the data on the page.

     

    and dclamp;

    your method would work, but some id's are not displayed with my query.

    some items in the database are > NOW() so $last would not always equal the last id selected from the database

Band Event 2

    which is correct. but for band event 2 i only want brownsbg1.jpg showing.

    help is appreciated. thanks in advance.
