[SOLVED] Cannot redeclare mysql_fetch_array()

[nick02895]

I've been trying to re-write some code I found at http://bytes.com/forum/thread519.html that creates pdf pages that I can print labels with.

Issue is it wasn't written for mysql and php (now that I've been into it for several hours).

I think I'm quite close, could use some help here.

2 files

labels.php and print.php

error I'm getting is

Cannot redeclare mysql_fetch_array() on line 29

Which is the end of function 1

 

----------------------------------print.php-----------
<?php
require_once('labels.php');
require('pdf/fpdf.php');
$cnx=db_connect();
$SelectStmt="select * from user";
PrintAddressLabels($SelectStmt);
?>
------------------------------end print.php------

--------------------------------------------------------------labels.php-------
<?php

{
   $result = mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password");
   if (!$result)
      return false;

      return false;

   return $result;
}
//------------------------------------function  1--------------------

{

$result = array();
if ($result = mysql_fetch_row($res))
{

for($count=1; $count < $nf; $count++)
{
$field_name = mysql_field_name($res, $count);
$field_value = mysql_result($res, $count);
$row[$field_name] = $field_value;
}
return $row;
}
}
//----------------------------function 2---------------
function Avery5160($x, // X co-ord of label (0-2)

$TopMargin = 12.7;
$LabelWidth = 66.6;
$LabelHeight = 25.45;
// Create Co-Ords of Upper left of the Label
$AbsX = $LeftMargin + (($LabelWidth + 4.22) * $x);
$AbsY = $TopMargin + ($LabelHeight * $y);
// Fudge the Start 3mm inside the label to avoid alignment errors
$pdf->SetXY($AbsX+3,$AbsY+3);
$pdf->MultiCell($LabelWidth-8,4.5,$Data);
return;
}
//------------------------------------------function 3---------------
function PrintAddressLabels($SelectStmt)
{
global $cnx; // database conneciton
$pdf=new FPDF();
$pdf->Open();
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',10);

if (!$cur) {
echo "Database Error";
return;
}
$x = 0;
$y = 0;
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($cur) )
{
$LabelText = sprintf("%s\n%s\n%s, %s, %s",
$row['firstname'],
$row['lastname'],
$row['address'],$row['city'],$row['zip']);
Avery5160($x,$y,$pdf,$LabelText);
$y++; // next row
if ($y == 10 ) { // end of page wrap to next column
$x++;
$y = 0;
if ($x == 3 ) { // end of page
$x = 0;
$y = 0;
$pdf->AddPage();
}
}
} else {
// Error quit printing
break;
}
}
$pdf->Output();
}
?>

Any and all comments welcome.

mysql_fetch_array() is a real function already, so you can't make another one of the same name.  Also, the way that you're getting the data in the function is absolutely horrid.

Remove the following

function mysql_fetch_array($res)
{
$row = array();
$result = array();
if ($result = mysql_fetch_row($res))
{
$nf = mysql_num_fields($res)+1;
for($count=1; $count < $nf; $count++)
{
$field_name = mysql_field_name($res, $count);
$field_value = mysql_result($res, $count);
$row[$field_name] = $field_value;
}

and your code should work, all the above code does is simulate the actual built in mysql_fetch_array function.

Thanks it's working now.
