Im just trying to get this query to retrieve one peice of data about a user if they are logged in however instead of producing any sort of mysql errors or anything it just stops the page from loading properly. Can anyone help solve this?

here is my query code:

  	  $query = "SELECT credits FROM users WHERE username = $session->username";
	  $res = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error());
	 $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
		  $ans = $res['credits'];

do I have to go through each of the field manually or can you think of a faster way?

November 8, 2010

Ive created a process which automatically creates a form for all of the "courses" that are listed in a database. This table shows the name, the course code, the current program the course is under and an option to delete the course. I have created a drop down menu for the user to select any of the current programs to switch the course into. My problem is I have X amount of select fields and radio buttons and I dont know how to tell which one has been changed below is my code, appreciate the help!:

        case "ep":
        
        if (isset ($_GET['id'])){
            $id = $_GET['id'];
                    echo "Below lists all of the current courses under this program. Once you have made all of the changes click the submit button at the bottom of the page. <br><br><br>";
                    $query = "SELECT * FROM courses WHERE cid = $id";
                    $result = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error());
                    echo "<form action=\"course_process.php\" method=\"post\">";
                    echo "<table><tr><td><strong>Course Name</strong></td><td><strong>Course Code</strong></td><td><strong>Change Course Program</strong></td><td><strong>Delete</strong></td></tr>";
                    $i = 0;
                    
                    while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){
                        $r = $row['id'];
                        $query2 = "SELECT * from catagories";
                        $result2 = mysql_query($query2) or die (mysql_error());
                        echo "<tr><td> ". $row['name']. " </td><td> ".$row['code']." </td><td><select name=\"".$row['id']."\">";
                        
                        while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result2)){
                        
                        echo "<option value=".$row2['id'].">".$row2['name']. "</option>";
                            }
                            
                             echo "</select></td><td><input name=\"".$row['id']."\" type=\"radio\" value=\"Click to delete\" /></td></tr>";
                    }
                    echo "<tr><td></td><td></td><td></td><td><input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Commit Changes\" /> </td></tr></table></form>";
                    
                    
                }else{
                    echo "Invalid action request. ERROR CODE 1";
                    
                }
                
        break;

here is my new theory

when going from your first page to your second you lose:

($_POST['search']);

try setting it to a variable and passing it through the url using.

November 8, 2010

ok im going to take a shot at this but its late and im tired so hope I can still help.

this line:

  $search = mysql_escape_string($_POST['search'])

is pointless post is used to collect values sent using post or send values however a little above that line you typed this:

if (!isset($_POST['submit'])) {

so your saying that the submit button has not been pushed yet meaning a POST value has not been sent. Or have you redirected yourself to this page using a form on another page?

I was just wondering if anyone new of a script of a function or a general direction to point me in of how to display a word document file on a website so that the users dont have to download it to see it.

	} 
	if (number == 2){
	var newtext = <?php $two;?>

anyone....?

October 25, 2009

here is the nc_db_link function

<?php

function nc_db_link ($link, $_database)
{
if ($link)
{
	if (mysql_select_db($_database, $link))
		return $link;
	else
	{
		nc_report_error("MySQL reported: ".mysql_error());
		exit();
	}
}
else
{
	nc_report_error("MySQL reported: ".mysql_error());
	exit();
}
}
?>

October 25, 2009

So i tried using "DEFINE" for the first time and im using the variables i defined to connect but it reports back this error:

Warning: mysql_query(): 11 is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/content/p/p/f/ppffffpp/html/avalancheatblue.com/nc-cms/system/modules/storage/mysql.php on line 25

Can anyone look at the function and find out why this is?

<?php

function nc_save_content ($name, $data)
{	

$nc_db_link = mysql_connect(NC_DB_HOST, NC_DB_USER, NC_DB_PASSWORD);
$nc_db_link = nc_db_link($nc_db_link, NC_DB_DATABASE);

So i cant figure out what or how, but aparently in my sql i have a constent escaping the string can anyone spot the error..?? Name is defined earlier it is passed as a paramiter through the function.

<?php
$x=2;
$z=1;
while($x != 0){
$temp2 = $name.$x;
$get = "SELECT content FROM " .NC_DB_PREFIX." content WHERE name ='".$temp2"'";
$res = mysql_query($get) or die (mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
?>

Ok thanks for posting mate, i fixed the !copy and instead of using fopen to open/create the file i now use touch as you can see below, problem is, i still am not getting files created....

<?php

//
//	nc_save_content()
//
//	Check content file to see if it exists, then save data.
//
function nc_save_content ($name, $data)
{	
//see if there is a file to create history for
//next steps 1. Copy the info in that file, paste it into the new file then find out how to move everything. up a number
if (file_exists('content/'.$name)){
$file ='content/'.$name;

//Check to see if all three backups exists and if not create them 
$x =3;
while($x != 0){
//if the files doesnt exists (starting at 3 and going down)
if (!file_exists($file.$x)){

//create it
touch($file.$x); 
}
$x--;
}

//end of backup checking and creating 
$i=2;
while ($i != 0){
//create the next number 
$z= $i + 1;
//copy from that number to one higher (1 =>2 or 2=>3)
if (!copy($file.$i,$file.$z)){
echo "Error in file system on line 21 could copy file!!";
}
//minus i to go to the next lower file
$i--;
}//end while statment

if(!copy($file,$file."1")){
echo "Error in file system on line 27 could copy file!!";
}


}


// Save away.
$path = NC_BASEPATH.'/../content/'.$name;
$fh = fopen('content/'.$name, 'w') or die(nc_report_error("Could not open file: ".$name.". Make sure that this server has read and write permissions  the /nc-cms/content folder."));
fwrite($fh, $data);
fclose($fh);

//Start of history creation





}
//
//	nc_load_create_content()
//
//	Check content file to see if it exists, if not, create it. Open it and return data.
//
function nc_load_create_content ($name)
{	
// Load content if file exists
$path = NC_BASEPATH.'/../content/'.$name;
nc_check_content ($path, 'Edit me! ('.$name.')'); // Make sure content file exists
$fh = fopen($path, 'r') or die(nc_report_error("Could not find file: ".$path));
$data = fread($fh, filesize($path)) or die(nc_report_error("Could not read file: ".$path.". Make sure that this server has read and write permissions to the /nc-cms/content folder."));
fclose($fh);

return $data;
}
//
//	nc_check_content - USED INTERNALLY
//
//	Check content file to see if it exists. And if it doesn't, create it. $path contains the file path, $default contains the default text to go in the file if it is new.
//
function nc_check_content ($path, $default)
{
// If file doesn't exist yet or is of 0 length, create and write something in it.
if (!file_exists($path) || !filesize($path)) 
{
   $fh = fopen($path, 'w') or die(nc_report_error("Could not write file: ".basename($path).". Make sure that this server has read and write permissions to the /nc-cms/content folder."));
   fwrite($fh, $default) or die(nc_report_error("Could not write file: ".basename($path).". Make sure that this server has read and write permissions to the /nc-cms/content folder."));
   fclose($fh);
}

clearstatcache(); // Clear status cache (so filesize() will do its work again)
}

So my code is messy, i apologize, but to the point. Basically im creating a backup of a textfile so that there will be three previous versions and if they edit it more then three times then the fourth of firth ect... gets deleted so i have the function you see below problem is it only creates the $file.1 not $file.2 or $file.3 i cannot figure out why it will not create those files because i say if it doesnt exsist then create it...I put a die after the while statment they got created in the variables of the file names all echoed out prober so im not sure why its not working...here is my code:

<?php
function nc_save_content ($name, $data)
{	
//see if there is a file to create history for
//next steps 1. Copy the info in that file, paste it into the new file then find out how to move everything. up a number
if (file_exists('content/'.$name)){
$file ='content/'.$name;
//Check to see if all three backups exists and if not create them 
$x =3;
while($x != 0){


//if the files doesnt exists (starting at 3 and going down)
if (!file_exists($file.$x)){
//create it
$ourFileHandle = fopen($file.$x, 'w') or die("can't open file");
fclose($ourFileHandle);
}
$x--;
}
//end of backup checking and creating 
$i=2;

while ($i != 0){
//create the next number 
$z= $i + 1;
//copy from that number to one higher (1 =>2 or 2=>3)
if (copy($file.$i,$file.$z)){
echo "Error in file system on line 21 could copy file!!";
}
//minus i to go to the next lower file
$i--;
}//end while statment

if(!copy($file,$file."1")){
echo "Error in file system on line 27 could copy file!!";
}


}


// Save away.
$path = NC_BASEPATH.'/../content/'.$name;
$fh = fopen('content/'.$name, 'w') or die(nc_report_error("Could not open file: ".$name.". Make sure that this server has read and write permissions  the /nc-cms/content folder."));
fwrite($fh, $data);
fclose($fh);

//Start of history creation

ok thought so, just wasnt sure that was the most efficent way to do this

October 24, 2009

I got changeable info on my website and I'm trying to create 3 backups on it using text files (don't ask about databaes please i want to use text files)

so I trying to think of the best way to do this,

1) check if the file nameoffie1 or nameoffie2 or nameoffie3 exists

2) if any of them exists back them up to the next number and do nothing to the third if it exists

what would be the best approach to do this? I'm leaving for work now so ill look at reply's when I get back, thanks.
