Table form input to output to 2nd page table


Jayfromsandiego

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

I need help with the following PHP APP. I am running on (Version PHP 7.2.10) I am trying to have a page table form on table.php pass the input variable of “5-Numbers” to another page called table_results.php

I want that variable string of “5-Numbers” to be compared against 4 arrays and output any duplicates found within each of those 4 lists. If nothing is found, I still want some visual output that reads “None found”.

 

Lets pretend I have the following example ..

On table.php, I typed inside my table form the 5-Numbers ..

INPUT:  2,15,37,13,28

On table_results.php, the 4 arrays to be compared against my input numbers2,15,37,13,28are ..

 

$array_A = array(2,6,8,11,14,18,24); 

$array_B = array(1,2,9,10,13,14,25,28,);  

$array_C = array(1,3,7,9,13,15,20,21,24); 

$array_D = array(4,5,12,22,23,27,28,29); 

 

So my output should read as follows below ..

OUTPUT: 

 

TABLE

COLUMN 1   COLUMN 2

ROW 1 Matches Found Results ..

ROW 2 GROUP A:            2 

ROW 3 GROUP B:             2,13,28

ROW 4 GROUP ?            13,15

ROW 5 GROUP ?            28

ROW 6 5#s Input:              2,15,37,13,28

 

Please let me know if anyone has any suggestions on how to go about it. 

Thanks.

Hi there benanamen.

Thank you for reading my post. Let's just say I sell marbles in 4 different categories (GROUP A - RED, GROUP B - BLUE, GROUP C-YELLOW and GROUP D-GREEN) and the 5-Numbers input corresponds to each day of a work week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday). I want to keep track of how many marbles are being sold per day from each group category. The numbers between the 4 arrays correspond to sub-categories within each array.

This is what I have coded so far for ..

table.php

<?php

session_start();

$_SESSION['regName'] = $regValue;
 
?>

Here is a quickie example. (TMTOWTDI)

 

<?php
$array_A = [2, 6, 8, 11, 14, 18, 24];
$array_B = [1, 2, 9, 10, 13, 14, 25, 28];
$array_C = [1, 3, 7, 9, 13, 15, 20, 21, 24];
$array_D = [4, 5, 12, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29];

$input = '2,15,37,13,28';
$parts = explode(',', $input);

foreach ($parts as $part) {

    if (in_array($part, $array_A)) {
        $group_a[] = $part;
    }

    if (in_array($part, $array_B)) {
        $group_b[] = $part;
    }

    if (in_array($part, $array_C)) {
        $group_c[] = $part;
    }

    if (in_array($part, $array_D)) {
        $group_d[] = $part;
    }
}

echo '<pre>', print_r($group_a, true), '</pre>';
echo '<pre>', print_r($group_b, true), '</pre>';
echo '<pre>', print_r($group_c, true), '</pre>';
echo '<pre>', print_r($group_d, true), '</pre>';

Okay.

I tried this code and its only echoing "Array" for Group A, Group B, Group C and Group D.

Wonder why its not working? ?

table_results.php

<?php
       
$input = $_REQUEST['regName'];
                
$array_A = [2, 6, 8, 11, 14, 18, 24];
$array_B = [1, 2, 9, 10, 13, 14, 25, 28];
$array_C = [1, 3, 7, 9, 13, 15, 20, 21, 24];
$array_D = [4, 5, 12, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29];

$parts = explode(",", $input);

foreach ($parts as $part) {

    if (in_array($part, $array_A)) {
        $group_a[] = $part;
    }

    if (in_array($part, $array_B)) {
        $group_b[] = $part;
    }

    if (in_array($part, $array_C)) {
        $group_c[] = $part;
    }

    if (in_array($part, $array_D)) {
        $group_d[] = $part;
    }
}

Alright!! I solved it. What a great way to start the new year in 2019. ? The problem was in the echo command and was changed from <?php echo $group_a; ?>  to  <?php echo join(',',$group_a); ?>

Here's the final working code in case anyone else ever needs something similar in the future (just need an "if else"  implemented when no matches are found).

Use array_intersect(), arrays, and CSS and save yourself all that repetition

<?php
$arrays = [
            'A' => [2, 6, 8, 11, 14, 18, 24],
            'B' => [1, 2, 9, 10, 13, 14, 25, 28],
            'C' => [1, 3, 7, 9, 13, 15, 20, 21, 24],
            'D' => [4, 5, 12, 22, 23, 27, 28, 29]
          ];
$input = '2,15,37,13,28';
$parts = explode(',', $input);
?>
