Exploding from a flat-file db

[smallflower]

I'm having issues exploding the info into this calendar code from a flat-file db. The calendar is supposed to highlight days that are noted in the db, which is listed out below:

"12","7","2006","#dec0706","linked-day","../images/mobile.gif"
"12","8","2006","#dec0806","linked-day","../images/audio.gif"
"12","11","2006","#dec1106","linked-day","../images/email.gif"
"12","12","2006","#dec1206","linked-day","../images/mobile.gif","../images/audio.gif"
"12","13","2006","#dec1306","linked-day"


"1","19","2007","#jan1907","linked-day"

Can we see an example of whats happening?

That's the thing, nothing is happening. As you can see from the php code (the attached file) the days where something is happening, an event, that day is supposed to be highlighted blue and link to the HTML quick links below the calendar. I'm sure I'm just doing something wrong in exploding the data from the db into the php code from lines 98-109.

Can i get all the files you need so i can mess around with this code till it works right...

[DarkendSoul]

You know what... it might be this...

@list($link, $classes, $image1, $image2, $image3) = $days[$day];

try

list($link, $classes, $image1, $image2, $image3) = each($days[$day]);

@ signs scilence error messages, its best not to have them while developing.

Thanks for the idea, but it didn't help at all. I've re-attached the php file and the contents of the db are the same as listed above.

I'd like to point out...

[code]function generate_calendar($year, $month, $days = array(),
$day_name_length = 3, $month_href = NULL, $first_day = 0, $pn = array()){
$first_of_month = gmmktime(0,0,0,$month,1,$year);
$day_names = array();[/code]

Odd phrasing of a function... it kinda looks like it started good till $days then the rest could just be in the function if your not going to set them..

Also... It loads stuff here

[code]//flat file db code
$fp = fopen('archives-dates.txt','r');
if (!$fp) {echo 'ERROR: Unable to open file.'; exit;}
while (!feof($fp)) {
$days = fgets($fp, 1024); //use 2048 if very long lines
list ($field1, $field2, $field3, $field4, $field5, $field6, $field7, $field8) = trim(split ('\|', $line), "\"");
}[/code]

But it does nothing with it.

Another fact, $day is constantly over written.

list ($field1, $field2, $field3, $field4, $field5, $field6, $field7, $field8) = trim(split ('\|', $line), "\""); is unused...


Heres a cleaner more organized $days fetching function...

[code]//flat file db code
$fp = fopen('archives-dates.txt','r');
if ($fp) {
$i=0;
while (!feof($fp)) {
$line = fgets($fp, 1024);
$days[$i] = explode(",", $line); //use 2048 if very long lines
$i++;
}
fclose($fp);
}[/code]

It displays like this.
