I'm developing a website for specific EVENTS. Each EVENT lasts for three months and has fixed start date and end date, and they repeat each year: Event 1: Jan. 1st – Mar. 31st Event 2: Apr. 1st – Jun. 30th Event 3: Jul. 1st – Sep. 30th Event 4: Oct. 1st – Dec. 31st I have two functions FUNCTION 1: should run 3 days before start of the event. FUNCTION 2: should run 1 day before start of last month of the event. Functions should execute only that specific event and not other future or past events. Here how the functions should run for each Event: Event 1: Jan. 1st – Mar. 31st Function 1: on Dec 29 Function 2: last day of Feb Event 2: Apr. 1st – Jun. 30th Function 1: on Mar 29 Function 2: last day of May Event 3: Jul. 1st – Sep. 30th Function 1: on Jun 28th Function 2: Last day of Aug Event 4: Oct. 1st – Dec. 31st Function 1: on Sept 28th Function 2: last day of Nov What I'm doing right now is checking today's date and comparing it to the event date. If event start date is > today and event start date < 3 then run function one. My problem/questions: As of now, I have to remember to execute the functions manually on a specific date. How can I make this automated? Can I execute the function using server Cron job? Will that be a good practice? How would you approach in checking the event date to today? I feel there maybe better way of checking the date to run the function instead of what I'm doing. I hope my question is not vague and makes sense. Thank you.

up votedown votefavorite I've been scraching my head for hours over this problem. I'm basically trying to fetch values from a loop inside a function to pass it to another foreach loop to get the desired results. And it is not working as I intend to. please, point me in the right direction. Here is the code: function ff($s) { $project=""; foreach ($s as $i=> $r ){ $r["friend_one"] == $_SESSION['uname'] ? $friends[]= $r["friend_two"] : $friends[] = $r["friend_one"]; $friend=$friends[$i]; $totalids=$project->totalids($_SESSION['uname'],$friend); } return $totalids; } $totalid= ff($f); print_r($totalid); foreach ($totalid as $v){ $id=$v['user_id']; //other logic to get desired result }

Hello! I'm starting to learn php and for practice I tried to resolve a simple exercise. the idea is to write a php function that inputs a tabe and returns +1 if positive numbers in the table are more than the negative ones. and return -1 if negative numbers in the table are more than the positive ones. 0 if they are equal. this is my code for the function starting from line 8 function plusmin ($tab) { $n = count($tab); $plus = 0; $min = 0; for ($i = 0; $i <= $n; $i++) { if ($tab[$i] > 0){ $plus++; } elseif ($tab[$i] < 0){ $min++; } } if ($plus > $min) { $result = "+1"; } elseif ($plus < $min) { $result = "-1"; } elseif ($plus == $min){ $result = "0"; } return $result; } and just to test it I created a table manually $tab[0] = 1; $tab[1] = -5; $tab[2] = -4; $tab[3] = 7; $tab[4] = -8; $tab[5] = -3; $tab[6] = 2; $tab[7] = 0; $tab[8] = -6; $tab[9] = -9; $k = plusmin($tab); echo $k; when I execute it It works, it shows for the case -1 but the browser shows this error Notice: Undefined offset: 10 in C:\Users\ahmed\PhpstormProjects\Exam 2013\tab.php on line 13 line 13 is this one if ($tab[$i] > 0){ Notice: Undefined offset: 10 in C:\Users\ahmed\PhpstormProjects\Exam 2013\tab.php on line 16 line 16 is this one elseif ($tab[$i] < 0){ I dunno what's the problem. and I know it will turn out to be a stupid problem but hey that's how we all learn. could anyone help? Thanks in advance

Hi all, I am trying to pass 4 variables from one php page to another php page containing a google maps api. The variables I am passing are geo coordinates. at the end I want to show the map on my php page however I am struggling with linking php and javascipt together.

I am trying to convert colors from Hex to HSL (Not HSL to Hex). I am using a PHP function for this purpose. But It's not working properly for some colors. For example for #e04c4c the HSL should be (0, 70%, 59%) which it isn't the case with the function. function hexToHsl($hex) { $red = hexdec(substr($hex, 0, 2)) / 255; $green = hexdec(substr($hex, 2, 2)) / 255; $blue = hexdec(substr($hex, 4, 2)) / 255; $cmin = min($red, $green, $blue); $cmax = max($red, $green, $blue); $delta = $cmax - $cmin; if ($delta === 0) { $hue = 0; } elseif ($cmax === $red) { $hue = (($green - $blue) / $delta) % 6; } elseif ($cmax === $green) { $hue = ($blue - $red) / $delta + 2; } else { $hue = ($red - $green) / $delta + 4; } $hue = round($hue * 60); if ($hue < 0) { $hue += 360; } $lightness = (($cmax + $cmin) / 2) * 100; $saturation = $delta === 0 ? 0 : ($delta / (1 - abs(2 * $lightness - 1))) * 100; if ($saturation < 0) { $saturation += 100; } $lightness = round($lightness); $saturation = round($saturation); //return "hsl(${hue}, ${saturation}%, ${lightness}%)"; return array($hue, $saturation, $lightness); } This is how I used it: $templatePrimaryColor = '#e04c4c'; $templatePrimaryColor = str_replace("#", "",$templatePrimaryColor); list($h,$s,$l) = hexToHsl($templatePrimaryColor); $primaryColor = "hsl(${h}, ${s}%, ${l}%)"; This is the output: echo '<pre>',print_r(hexToHsl($templatePrimaryColor)).'</pre>'; Array ( [0] => 0 [1] => 99 [2] => 59 ) 1 Does anyone know what is the problem there? Thank you.

Please could you help.. I need to make this code allow me to use the showDiv function multiple times on the page.. <script type="text/javascript"> function showDiv() { document.getElementById('welcomeDiv').style.display = "block"; } function hideDiv() { document.getElementById('welcomeDiv').style.display = "none"; } </script> <a name="answer" value="Show Div" onclick="showDiv()" >Show</a> <div id="welcomeDiv" style="display:none;" class="answer_list" > <h2>Hello</h2> <button onclick="hideDiv()" class="loginBut" style="font-family: 'Handjet', cursive; font-size: 2EM;">Close</button> </div> Thanks. It seems I need to add an index variable to the function. Don't know how though.. I'm new to JS.

I have divs which can be clicked and then another div will pop out with few colors for users to choose. After choosing the colors in the div that pop out the div that is clicked will change into that background. I used class to determain which div is clicked. function works fine but I realized when I try console.log the class I used as global to findout which div to change the background. the console.log keeps adding up also multiplying too. Can I have a pair of eye to see where it's adding things up? var colorHolder = null; //used to store the location where color is picked function colorFieldPicker(onClickSide, xValInput, yValInput,side){ onClickSide.on('click', function(event){ colorHolder = $(this).attr('class'); var yVal = (event.pageY - yValInput) + "px"; var xVal = (event.pageX / xValInput) + "px"; $('.colorSelectBox').css({"left": xVal, "top": yVal}).toggle(); colorPickerOnClick(side); }); } function colorPickerOnClick(side){ $('div.black').add('div.yellow').on('click', function(){ var colorAttr = $(this).attr('value'); var splitClass = colorHolder.split(" "); side.closest('div').find('.'+splitClass[0] + '.'+splitClass[1]).css({"background": colorAttr}).attr('value', colorAttr); console.log(colorHolder); //this is where it's displaying in console that it'll keep on adding up. $('.colorSelectBox').css({"display": "none"}); }); } Thanks everyone in advance.

<div class="row"> <label for="a" id="lbName">Name:</label> <input type="text" name="name" id="name"> </div> The if statement sending variables, lblTag and errorLbl to function "errorMessage", the error message I am getting is "TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'style'), which also means that the last line in the errorMessage function is also going to getting an error message, but won't show until the first error is cleared. The error message is for variable lblTag if (name ==""){ lblTag = "lbName" errorLbl = "Name" errorMessage(lblTag, errorLbl) } function errorMessage(lblTag, errorLbl){ console.log(errorLbl) // getting undefined in the console here and the other variable as well and getting error message // error message: TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'style') document.getElementById(`${lblTag}`).style.color = `red` document.getElementById('error-lbl-message').innerHTML = errorLbl + " is empty" }
