Colton.Wagner Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I have made an xml quantity uploading script here it doesnt seem to update the quantity can you tell me what im doing wrong? <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['parts'] = array(); error_reporting(E_ALL); ?> <html> <head> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> <title> TItle of the website </title> </head> <body> <?php mysql_connect(''); mysql_select_db('products'); $parser = xml_parser_create(); $quantity = ($_SESSION['parts']['QTY']); $part = ($_SESSION['parts']['PART']); function start($parser, $element_name, $element_attrs) { switch($element_name) { case "SKU": // this is the start of a set of data $_SESSION['parts'] = array(); // create an empty set break; case "TIME": $query = sprintf("UPDATE products SET products_quantity = $quantity WHERE products_model = $part"); mysql_query($query); break; default: } } function stop($parser, $element_name) { } function char($parser,$data) { $data = trim($data); if($data != ''){ if(!isset($_SESSION['parts']['SKU'])){ $_SESSION['parts']['SKU'] = $data; } elseif (!isset($_SESSION['parts']['QTY'])){ $_SESSION['parts']['QTY'] = $data; } elseif (!isset($_SESSION['parts']['PART'])){ $_SESSION['parts']['PART'] = $data; } } } xml_set_element_handler($parser, "start", "stop"); xml_set_character_data_handler($parser, "char"); $fp=fopen("xml filename","r"); while ($data=fread($fp,4096)) { xml_parse($parser,$data,feof($fp)) or die (sprintf("XML Error: %s at line %d", xml_error_string(xml_get_error_code($parser)), xml_get_current_line_number($parser))); } xml_parser_free($parser); ?> </body> </html> The error is as follows: Notice: Undefined index: QTY in on line 22 Notice: Undefined index: PART in on line 23 Notice: Undefined variable: quantity in on line 34 Notice: Undefined variable: part in on line 34 Notice: Undefined variable: quantity in on line 34 Notice: Undefined variable: part in on line 34 That goes on for days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikesta707 Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 that means that you are using variables that you haven't defined yet. Either you misstyped the variable names, or you need to define them.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonMariner Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 its very simple - you have $_SESSION['parts'] = array(); this sets that session variable to an empty array. Between that line and the first attempt to access the QTY element of a non existent array there is no code to populate the parts array.

Colton.Wagner Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 that means that you are using variables that you haven't defined yet. Either you misstyped the variable names, or you need to define them.. They are for sure not miss typed they have been defined but they are not being parsed in correctly because I don't know how to correctly process the syntax to do it.

The way i have that set up is it parse's the xml into the $_SESSION['parts']['wty'] then it sets that equal to the variable $quanitity then updates that into the database im not so sure that i am using the correct syntax for that.

Toon is right, <?php session_start(); $_SESSION['parts'] = array(); error_reporting(E_ALL); ?> ... html here.... <?php mysql_connect(''); mysql_select_db('products'); $parser = xml_parser_create(); // The following are causing problems: $quantity = ($_SESSION['parts']['QTY']); $part = ($_SESSION['parts']['PART']); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colton.Wagner Posted October 9, 2009 Author Share Posted October 9, 2009 I see why it isn't working I just don't know how to fix it. I need it to check for those variables after it parses the xml or else it wont work. Is there another way to update the fields via xml parsing?

ToonMariner Posted October 10, 2009 Share Posted October 10, 2009 if you can see why it doesn't work you will know that you need to assign values to the array held in $_SESSION['parts'] BEFORE you start using them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
