Help with PHP syntax

Hope someone can help out again with a bit of syntax.
I have a bit of code that acts a little loop displaying records from a table :
PHP Code:
<?php 
     $groups = array(); 
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs2011nominees)) { 
    $groups[$row['Alphabet']][] = $row; 
foreach ($groups as $alphabet_letter => $rows) { 
    echo "<tr><td><br><h2>$alphabet_letter</h2><br></td></tr>"; 
    foreach ($rows as $row) { 
        echo "<tr><td><a href=\"http://www.goodsafariguide.com/hit_counter2.php?LodgeID=" . $row['LodgeID'] . " \" >" . $row['Lodge'] . " </a></td></tr>";
?>
I'd like to add in another field next to the Lodge field, complicated by the fact that its to display an image. (The field is winner10, and just contains the string winner10.gif which references the gif.)
So that would normally look like :
<img src="../images/<?php echo $row['winner10']; ?>"  alt="Image Name" border="0"/>
But I'm not sure how to add that in to the existing code, so if anyone could for whom its second nature could help out, I'd be very grateful. 
Thanks.

Thank you - got there in the end.
[php]<?php
     $groups = array();
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs2011nominees)) {
    $groups[$row['Alphabet']][] = $row;
foreach ($groups as $alphabet_letter => $rows) {
    echo "<tr><td><br><h2>$alphabet_letter</h2><br></td></tr>";
    foreach ($rows as $row) {
echo "<tr><td><a href=\"http://www.goodsafariguide.com/hit_counter2.php?LodgeID=" . $row['LodgeID'] . " \" >" . $row['Lodge'] . " </a>
<img src=\"../images/lodgeawardicons/". $row['winner10']. "\"  alt=\"Image Name\" border=\"0\"/>
<img src=\"../images/lodgeawardicons/". $row['runnerup10']. "\"  alt=\"Image Name\" border=\"0\"/>
<img src=\"../images/lodgeawardicons/". $row['finalist10']. "\"  alt=\"Image Name\" border=\"0\"/>
</td></tr>";
?>[/php]
Although now I've noticed that the results within each group are not ordered alphabetically...

  • Update on help with PHP to send an email

    On Jan 9th Iasked for help Asking for help with PHP to send an email wanting to send myself an email when a particular web page was opened.The group gave me lots of ideas / suggestions but unfortunately I was not able to make it work the way I wanted. But.. with perseverance.. made it work. The original PHP code I wanted to use was:
    <?php mail('[email protected]','Subject of the e-mail','This is the body of the e-mail!'); ?>
    After much trial and error. this is what I found works.. for me at any rate. My log in sets a cookie that welcomes my user back by name so I ended up using that information with this:
    <?php
    if (isset($_COOKIE["last_in"])) {
      $user = $_COOKIE["last_in"];
    mail('[email protected]','News Page',"$last_in");
    ?>
    Again, thank you for all the help with my initial question.. there are a multitude of ways to accomplish a task, and for me this is the one I was looking for.

  • Help with php session variables

    I am using Dreamweaver 8 to set up a dynamic app with PHP and
    MySQL. I want the code that the user logs in with ('UPN') to be
    stored as a session variable so that recordsets on subsequent pages
    can be set to display personalised data.
    I have set the session variable like this: $_SESSION['UPN'] =
    'UPN' (UPN is the name of the form textfield, also set as the
    username for logging in)
    On the data page, I have called the variable like this:
    $query_Recordset1 = ("SELECT pupils.pupilID, pupils.UPN,
    pupils.forename, pupils.surname FROM pupils WHERE UPN = '" .
    $_SESSION['UPN'] . "'");
    The recordset returns nothing- the dynamic table returns ony
    the column headings (both as headings and immediately under where
    you would expect the data to be).
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Your code assigns the literal string UPN to the session
    variable. If
    it's coming from POSTed form data, you'd need to do it like:
    $_SESSION['UPN'] = $_POST['UPN'];

  • Need help with PHP contact form

    Hi guys,
    I've made a PHP contact form for my site and need help with a couple of things:
    The form action links an external PHP script (scripts/contact-form-script.php) but is there a way I can have it so the PHP script for the form is contained within the same PHP file as my contact form (contact.php)?
    I tried just putting the form code at the top of contact.php but the browser automatically reads the anti-spam re-direct, so maybe that needs revising too?
    The second thing is, how can I make the Name, Email and Message fields mandatory? So if a user tries to submit the form and hasn't filled in one of the required fields and clicks submit, contact.php reloads with a message at the top of the form saying something like 'Complete the required fields' and highlights the relevant field with a red border?
    Here's the code for contact.php:
    <form action="http://www.mydomain.com/scripts/contact-form-script.php" method="post" name="contact" id="contact">
    <p><strong>Name:*</strong><br />
    <input name="name" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>E-mail:*</strong><br />
    <input name="email" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Telephone:</strong><br />
    <input name="telephone" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Company:</strong><br />
    <input name="company" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Address:</strong><br />
    <input name="address1" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><input name="address2" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Town:</strong><br />
    <input name="town" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>County:</strong><br />
    <input name="county" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    p><strong>Postcode:</strong><br />
    <input name="postcode" type="text" class="ctextField" /></p>
    <p><strong>Message:*</strong><br />
    <textarea name="message" cols="55" rows="8" class="ctextField"></textarea></p>
    <p><input name="submit" value="SEND MESSAGE" class="submitButton" type="submit" /><div style="visibility:hidden; width:1px; height:1px"><input name="url" type="text" size="45" id="url" /></div></p>
    </form>

    $to = "[email protected]";

  • Need help with PHP mail script

    I  have created a  log in system  . In that when the  user completes the  registration process an auto reply(auto-reply@domain)  will generate and  sent this to users email id regarding about the user  name and password  (Lo gin Details). After formal approval from the admin  the user will  get a user activation mail with log in link.
    But , my problem is  these are work only for mail accounts from my  domain  only(test@domain). its not send any of above mentioned details  to other  mail services like gmail or yahoo etc.
    i discussed this   with some others, they said its the problem with your mail function   configuration. but i didn't get any needful information as am a  beginner  in PHP scripting.

    I  have created a  log in system  . In that when the  user completes the  registration process an auto reply(auto-reply@domain)  will generate and  sent this to users email id regarding about the user  name and password  (Lo gin Details). After formal approval from the admin  the user will  get a user activation mail with log in link.
    But , my problem is  these are work only for mail accounts from my  domain  only(test@domain). its not send any of above mentioned details  to other  mail services like gmail or yahoo etc.
    i discussed this   with some others, they said its the problem with your mail function   configuration. but i didn't get any needful information as am a  beginner  in PHP scripting.
    i have contacted this with my  hosting service they said its the  problem with  php mail () function  and use php mailer() instead mail().
    please give me a solution for the same..
    Here am ataching my code..

  • Need help with PHP form with checkboxes, radio buttons and file attachment

    Hi guys,
    I'm having a nightmare with this PHP form where a user can fill it in, attach a doc/pdf and submit. After trying to sort it out with previous code I've used, I've stripped it out and think I should just start again in the hope you geniuses can help!
    Here is the HTML of contact.php:
    <form action="" method="post" name="contact" id="contact">

    </form>
    By the way, the date boxes work so excuse the Javascript in there!
    To prevent SPAM I've used a trick where there's a hidden URL field which must be left blank for the form to submit which you can see in the PHP.
    Below is where I'm at with the PHP which is placed above the header of contact.php...
    <?php
    if (array_key_exists('submit', $_POST)) {
        $position = $_POST['position'];
        $arrive = $_POST['arrive'];
        $nationality = $_POST['nationality'];
        $parttime = $_POST['parttime'];
        $depart = $_POST['depart'];
        $name = $_POST['name'];
        $email = $_POST['email'];
        $telephone = $_POST['telephone'];
    $to = "[email protected]";
    $subject = "Recruitment Application";
    $message = $headers;
    $message .= "Name: " . $_POST["name"] . "\r\n";
    $message .= "E-mail: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
    $headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
    $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
    $headers .= "Reply-To: " . $_POST["email"] . "\r\n";
    $headers .= 'From: My Website <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
    $message= "
    $url = stripslashes($_POST["url"]);
    if (!empty($url)) {
    header( 'Location: http://www.go-away-spam-robots.com' );
    exit();
    if (!isset($warning)) {
    mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
    header( 'Location: http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/sent.php' );
    ?>
    I would like to make pretty much all the field compulsory so if a field is left empty (other than the hidden URL field), a warning message is displayed next to that field.
    Also I would like the file upload field to attach to the email that is sent to me and have the results come through to me in a table format.
    Can anyone help me get my form working?
    Thank you and I hope to hear from you!
    SM

    Hi Nancy,
    Great stuff, thank you for the reply.
    I've managed to get the Formm@iler working and running as I need it to.
    The only thing I'm struggling with is when the user clicks submit, they are taken to a page of whatever results the form returned but it is just a white background with Times New Roman text.
    How can I have it so the user is taken to the form results in the websites' page layout?
    I tried sending them to a generic 'thank you' page by adding the following code but it just took them there whatever the results of the form so that's no good...! I have a feeling it's a bit more complicated than that...
    header( 'Location: http://www.nofussbus.co.uk/test/sent.php' );
    Thank you for your help!

    [Subject line edited by moderator to indicate nature of request]

    Using PHP to process an online form and send the input by email is very simple. The mail() function takes a minimum of three arguments, namely: the address the mail is being sent to, the subject line, and the body of the email as a single string. The reason some people use scripts like form2mail.php is because they don't have the knowledge or patience to validate the user input to make sure it's safe to send.
    Rather than attempt to trawl through your complex form looking for the problems, I would suggest starting with a couple of simple tests.
    First of all, create a PHP page called mailtest.php containing the following script:
    <?php
    $to = '[email protected]'; // use your own email address
    $subject = 'PHP mail test';
    $message = 'This is a test of the mail() function.';
    $sent = mail($to, $subject, $message);
    if ($sent) {
      echo 'Mail was sent';
    } else {
      echo 'Problem sending mail';
    ?>
    Save the script, upload it to your server, and load it into a browser. If you see "Mail is sent", you're in business. If not, it probably means that the hosting company insists on the fifth argument being supplied to mail(). This is your email address preceded by -f. Change the line of code that sends the mail to this:
    $sent = mail($to, $subject, $message, null, '[email protected]');
    Obviously, replace "[email protected]" with your own email address.
    If this results in the mail being sent successfully, you will need to adapt the code in form2mail.php to accept the fifth parameter. You need to change the following line, which is a few lines from the end of the script:
    if (!mail($MailToAddress, $MailSubject, $mailMessage,$mailHeader))
    Change it to this:
    if (!mail($MailToAddress, $MailSubject, $mailMessage,$mailHeader, '[email protected]'))
    Again, use your own email address instead of "[email protected]".
    Once you have determined whether you need the fifth argument, test form2mail.php with a very simple form like this:
    <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="form2mail.php">
      <p>
        <label for="name">Name:</label>
        <input type="text" name="name" id="name" />
      </p>
      <p>
        <label for="email">Email:</label>
        <input type="text" name="email" id="email" />
      </p>
      <p>
        <label>
          <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="boat cleaning" id="options_0" />
          Boat cleaning</label>
        <br />
        <label>
          <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="RV cleaning" id="options_1" />
          RV cleaning</label>
        <br />
        <label>
          <input type="checkbox" name="options[]" value="motorcycle cleaning" id="options_2" />
          Motorcycle cleaning</label>
      </p>
      <p>
        <input type="submit" name="send" id="send" value="Submit" />
      </p>
    </form>
    If that works, you can start to make the form more complex and add back your JavaScript validation.

  • Need help with PHP form processor coding

    I posted my first question on this forum earlier today and got help quickly. I'm going to try again and see who can help me this time.
    I have a customer feedback form that I designed and I am using Spry validation on the fields and I'm use Recaptcha as well. Now I'm trying to get the form handler working. I know there are some canned procedures out there but I hate using too much code that I don't understand at all.  I'm sure my first attempt at PHP coding is horrible but we all have to learn. My processor is working in some areas but there are holes I don't know how to fill in:
    1. When I validate the Recaptcha input, if it was entered correctly, I go on to send an email to the appropriate person BUT how do I send them a message and get back to the form if the recaptcha validation fails and still have their entries in place?
    2. Assuming the recaptcha validated correctly, my procedure sends an email  and it writes the comments to a file for historical purposes. These parts seem to be working (by some miracle). Once I do this, I think I would like to open a little window to send the customer a confirmation message, have them click the box to confirm and close the window and then take them back to the feedback form but now have it be reset. I'm not sure how to do these steps.
    Does anyone have a SIMPLE example to accomplish these steps?
    Thanks much!!
    Donna

    It would be hard to give you substantive examples of how to accomplish your goals here without seeing your PHP code, but in general the following methods would work:
    1.  To return to the form with the fields populated, is easiest when the processing script and the form code are on the same page.  The idea is that when the form is not properly completed, you fall back into the form code and use the data from the posted values to repopulate the fields, e.g.,
    <input type="text' name="whatever" value="<?php isset($_POST['whatever']) { echo $_POST['whatever']; ?>">
    or
    <select name="whatever2">
    <option<?php if(isset($_POST['whatever2']) && $_POST['whatever2']=='this_option_value') { echo ' selected="selected"'; } ?>>this_option_value</option>
    </select>
    Each field is set to repeat the posted data (if the corresponding $_POST value is set - to avoid error messages when the page is first loaded).
    2.  You can place the confirmation message on the page with CSS that hides it.  When the form is submitted successfully, just set a variable that is used to show the previously hidden message, e.g.,
    Assume the following CSS -
    #message { display:none; }
    and the following HTML -
    <p id="message">Congratulations</p>
    and the fact that you have set a PHP variable called $success to be true when the form is successfully submitted, you would just modify the HTML like this -
    <p id="message"<?php if($success) { echo ' style="display:block"; } ?>>Congratulations</p>
    Make sense?

  • Need help with php and flash

    that has part flash and html in it. I am using php to dynamically
    pull in the flash files from an includes folder. In doing so I have
    uploaded everything to our preview server where I tested the site.
    It works in firefox but not in the ie browsers, I thought this had
    to do with active control, so I downloaded the extension but
    nothing happened, still it works in firefox and not ie either 6 or
    7. t

    please let me know. I have attached the code as well for one of the
    flash animations.
    Thanks

    Looking at the source of your page, I note that you missed a
    couple lines in the AC_FL_RunActiveContent embed. These 2 lines go
    in the head of the page.

    Please help! Thanks!!!

    I'm not sure how much you know but first you have to connect your form to the database
    $con = mysql_connect("hostname","admin_name","password");
    Then you have to choose the database you want information be added to.
    mysql_select_db("database name goes here", $con);
    Then you have to write an sql function which will write it in the appropiate columns in your database
    $sql="INSERT INTO what column e.g members (First name, Last name, age, etc)
    VALUES (the names of the textfields on your form), actually double check that part
    ('$_POST[firstname]','$_POST[lastname]','$_POST[age]')";
    $result = mysql_query($sql);
    This is the first and most basic part just to give you an idea how it works.
    Within these snippets you will have to write much more which will beef up the security aswell as check if everything has been entered correctly etc

    Using a language like PHP without understanding it is an
    invitation to
    security problems. Everyone is a beginner to start with, so
    there's
    nothing wrong with not knowing how a script works at the
    outset, but you
    need to get the basics under your belt pretty quickly.
    Otherwise, you
    are laying the foundation for lots of headaches.
    OK, lecture over. "\n" is the way that PHP (and other
    languages) inserts
    a newline character.
    > my code at the moment is
    > $message= "Name: ".$name . "\nComments: ".$comments;
    So, "\nComments: " simply puts a newline before Comments. The
    period
    (full stop) concatenates (joins together) different parts of
    a string.
    You can also add to an existing string by using .= (the
    combined
    concatenation operator).
    Assuming the form is submitted using the POST method, you get
    the values
    of other fields by adding the name of the field in quotes
    between the
    square brackets of $_POST[] (POST must be uppercase) like
    this:
    $message = "Name: $name";
    $message .= "\nComments: $comments";
    $message .= "\nPhone: " . $_POST['phone'];
    $message .= "\nEmail: " . $_POST['email'];

    how would I go about upgrading from tiger to  leopard?
    Buy Leopard, insert disk, follow instructions.
    You can instal php (which is built into Leopard) by renaming a file and uncommenting a line then enabling web sharing in System Preferences but I use entropy because it has the GD enabled for CAPTCHA and other features. There's a 10.4 version on their website but it mentions it's an older, unsupported and probably insecure version. You should use entropy Leopard version 5.2.9-7 for Leopard/ADDT development.
    After you get php installed you need to install MySQL which is easy to find through searching and straight-forward to instal. Then instal phpMyAdmin and you'll be good to go!
    As mentioned earlier I can walk you through the steps more thoroughly if you decide to upgrade to Leopard. There's some other steps involved: You need to configure virtual hosts so that it points to your Sites folder on your Mac and each folder in Sites folder are for each site you have so that entering site1 goes to ~/Sites/site1 on local testing server and entering site2 goes to ~/Sites/site2 in local testing server, etc. very, very easy to setup. Just edit hidden hosts file in etc folder and username.config file in apache2 hidden folder.
    There's other tutorials out there that show how to do it but most don't have all the info. I'm working on a step-by-step tutorial on my website but it's not finished yet. Maybe it'll be ready by the time you decide to upgrade to Leopard.

Maybe you are looking for
