[Retrieving Image Data From a mysql Database]

Assuming that the image is being stored in the same folder as the file getImage.php, this is what you need I think...

<?php
include'/export/student/s2681238/mysql/mysqlconfig.php';
include'/export/student/s2681238/mysql/mysqlconnect.php';
$id = intval($_GET['id']);//added intval() to prevent SQL injections... 

  $query = "select imagedata, imagename, imagetype, imagesize " .
           "from items2 where uniqueid = $id";
  $result = @ mysql_query($query) or showerror();
  $row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
  $image = $row;

$data = $image['imagedata'];
$name = $image['imagename'];
$type = $image['imagetype'];
$size = strlen($data);//This is getting the count of characters in the name of the file, not the file...
$size = filesize($data);//this gets the file size

header("Content-length: $size");
header("Content-type: $type");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$name");

echo file_get_contents($data);//get the image's code and print it out
?>

[just need help on converting some code from php5 to php4]

do you get an error message?

[Cookies and PHP.]

Look into this quick, easy, well done tutorial: here

[just need help on converting some code from php5 to php4]

I agree with Daniel, PFMaBiSmAd, Ken2k7, and probably the majority on phpfreaks... you should upgrade, not downgrade.

If its not your server, change hosts because its not worth it to sit on an old box friend.

Any ways, the one line of code you provided isn't much for us to work off of... does it not work? what does it do when you run it? do you get errors? if so, what are they?

[[SOLVED] Form with js calendar script that gets posted to a php file]

I don't know what the JS does because you didn't attach or paste the JS... but I'll venture a guess that variable one in the function DateInput() (in yours, it is 'orderdate') is what the JS uses as the input's name & id. Try:

<?php

   $mail_msg  = "Contact Information\n\n"; 
   $mail_msg .= "Name: ".$_POST["name"]."\n"; //changed the append to .= because its shorter
   $mail_msg .= "Email Address: ".$_POST["orderdate"]."\n"; //Here I changed "email" to "orderdate"
      

     $email = $_POST['email'];
   mail('email@myemail.com', 'Tour Request', $mail_msg,
   "From: <".$email.">\n\r");


   // Mail to user
   $mail_user = "Auto-Acknowledgement:\n\n Thank you for contacting Mansion.\n We are in receipt of your e-mail and will respond to your inquiry shortly. \n\n Thank you for visiting at http://mansion.org/weddings/ ";

   mail($email, "Mansion: Auto-Acknowledgement", $mail_user,
   "From: Mansion<'weddingcenter@mansion.org'>\n\r");


header("Location: thanks.htm");

?>

[finding multiple data in arrays]

if you use the code tags around your php or even html snippets, you will likely get more help

[ code ]Like this but without the spaces in the tags[ /code ]

would be

Like this but without the spaces in the tags

[Is it possible?]

In most cases, the answer is yes, its just a matter of what rout you should take.

What OS are you running and what version of that OS is it? Unix, MS Windows (xp, vista, etc) ?

[Changing time using timestamp]

you could set your time zone in the ini or on the fly per page (before anything else) by using date_default_timezone_set('America/Phoenix');  and replace Phoenix with your supported local city found here.

Else, you can use the unixtimestamp returned by strtotime("-10 hours")

 

(Sorry, reply is for changing timezone in php, please excuse me... I ended up in the wrong board)

[Interesting Quandary Help with PHP]

No offense man, but you need to start with some basics before jumping into queries and such.

 

Thanks for your help.

Intended to be sarcastic I'm guessing. I'll be on for about another 15minutes, post your entire page and any include pages and I'll try running through it... but my opinion of starting small stands.

[multiple select statements!]

Do you have phpMyAdmin? if so, through this into a query (slight mod of kickstart's, no guarantee it will work)

SELECT a.post_id, COUNT(b.comment_id) as `count`

FROM posts a

LEFT OUTER JOIN comments b

ON a.post_id = b.post_id

ORDER BY `count`

GROUP BY a.post_id

"LEFT OUTER JOIN" means you are linking the table with whatever is on the left side of the "ON" statement's "=" having to be in existence (if your post is deleted, it won't try counting from the comments for that post). The on statement is how you specify what fields need to be equal. in this case, the post id fields in both tables. "COUNT()" counts how many results were returned from the table comments. If you notice that the tables are names then have "a" or "b" after them, that is called an "alias" and it just simply makes it easier/shorter to write.

 

Help?

[[SOLVED] alternating bgcolor on table rows]

You need to increment $row

$row = 0;
      foreach($search_rows as $row) {
         $alt = ($row % 2 == 0)? 'd4e4fe' : 'bfd4f8';
            echo '<tr>';
            echo '<td bgcolor="#' . $alt . '">' . $row->branch_name . '</td>';
            echo '<td bgcolor="#' . $alt . '">' . $row->address . '</td>';
            echo '<td bgcolor="#' . $alt . '">' . $row->city . '</td>';
            echo '<td bgcolor="#' . $alt . '">' . $row->state . '</td>';
            echo '<td bgcolor="#' . $alt . '">' . $row->zip . '</td>';
            echo '<td bgcolor="#' . $alt . '">' . format_phone($row->phone_number) . '</td>';
            echo '</tr>';

[basic news system help]

delete the file you are writing to (clean start), and post to it again. How many news items do you have? should be one...

Post a new one. How many do you have? should be two...

do that a few times and see what you get and let us know.

 

btw, I suggest this code for saving:

<?php
if(isset($_POST['author'])){
$author = $_POST["author"];

$zeth = file_put_contents("test.php","<center>Author: " . $author . "<br>" . wordwrap($_POST["news"], 75, "<br />") . "<br><hr><br></center>", FILE_APPEND);
}
?>

and this code to output the file's content:

<?php

$file = filesize("test.php");

$news = file_get_contents("test.php");

print $news;

?>

[basic news system help]

conditional statement needed...

$zeth = file_put_contents("test.php","<center>Author: " . $author . "<br>" . $_POST["news"] . "<br><hr><br></center>", FILE_APPEND);
}
?>

[includes]

let me get this right, your include file has links that are relative? When you include it, the links relativity is broken and you obviously can't have that. Right?
