Get List Of Messages From One Table, Message List Indicator From
I have two tables. One has a list of messages left by users using fields named mbxno for the mailbox and msgno for the message number. I have another table that has mailbox settings for each user that contains a field named "messagelist" to indicate if they want to be included on the message list or not.
What I'm trying to create is a list of the most-recent messages with a lookup on the users table to indicate whether a message in the list should be included in the message list based on the user's mailbox settings.
SELECT messages.msgno, messages.mbxno, users.messagelist FROM messages, users WHERE (users.messagelist = Ƈ') ORDER BY msgno DESC LIMIT 100
What I'm getting, though is a list that looks like this:
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1
I think what's happening is that I'm using the wrong type of join and more rows are being created than necessary.
If I add "DISTINCT" to the query, I get a list of the most-recent messages as I expect, but the "messsagelist" value is sometimes wrong (again, probably because the data is getting jumbled). For example, the messagelist value for the second row (2214) should be 0, not 1.
mbxno: 1114 msgno: 0412141623 msglist: 1 mbxno: 2214 msgno: 0412141622 msglist: 1 mbxno: 2189 msgno: 0412141408 msglist: 1 mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1 mbxno: 0003 msgno: 0412141213 msglist: 1 mbxno: 2265 msgno: 0412132029 msglist: 1 mbxno: 0000 msgno: 0412131950 msglist: 1
How should I be doing this? If nothing else, what kind of join will work with a long list compared to a value from a short list?

Putting Form Error Messages Into A List
I have some form validation and I want to put all the error messages that are displayed into a bulleted list. I have seen it done with more complicated validation using OOP but I don't know enough to do that. How would I add these error messages to a list if they occur? Code:
List Contents Of A Folder, Make List Of Links
Does anyone know how I can write a script that:
- reads in all the files in a particular directory - displays the file names in a html list and makes a link of them: <ul> <li><a href="filelocation1">filename 1</li> <li><a href="filelocation2">filename 1</li> <li><a href="filelocation3">filename 1</li> </ul>
etc.?
So basically it creates a list of links with the contents in that directory, so you can download them from there.

How Do You Insert A Value From Drop Down List To SQL Table?
I am a bit new to PHP and SQL so this may seem like a dumb question.
I have already created a drop down list as part of a form which is automatically populated with values taken from a separate database. When a user goes onto this page and either leaves the default value or selects a value from the drop down list and presses the submit button, I would like that selected value to be stored into a database which I have already created in SQL.
Just to let you know that I can do the above using a text field but just don't know how to do it with drop down list.
If your going to explain any coding then it may help if I give you the names of certain items that are involved.
Database is called "Company" Field within database is called "Name"

Dynamic List Populated By MySQL Table
I am building my first php page and I've ran into problems trying to create a dynamic drop down list for an INSERT page. My page is based on this example from mysql.com.
I want to populate the list from a table in MySQL, but when I test the page the list only contains the first record. If anyone can help me out, or recommend an easy way to create dynamic menus/lists, I will be very grateful.
This code appears above the FORM ACTION:
$NearMajorCity = mysql_query("SELECT NearMajorCity_ID, NearMajorCity FROM NearMajorCity");
This code is within the FORM:
<SELECT NAME="NearMajorCity" SIZE=1> <OPTION SELECTED VALUE="">Select One <OPTION VALUE="">--------- <?php while ($NearMajorCity = mysql_fetch_array($NearMajorCity)) { $NearMajorCity_ID = $NearMajorCity["NearMajorCity_ID"]; $NearMajorCity = $NearMajorCity["NearMajorCity"]; echo("<OPTION VALUE='$NearMajorCity_ID'>$NearMajorCity "); } ?> </SELECT>
I want to be able to view the names of the Major Cities in the list, but I want the NearMajorCity_ID inserted into the table.

Select From Drop List To Fill Table Column With Text -- HOW ?
I want viewers to compare state laws on a single subject.
Imagine a three-column table with a drop-down box on the top. A viewer selects a state from the list, and that state's text fills the column below. The viewer can select states from the drop down lists above the other two columns as well. If the viewer selects only one, only one column fills. If the viewer selects two states, two columns fill. Etc.
I could, if appropriate, have a separate htm page with the text for each state -- california.htm for example. When the viewer selects California from the drop down list, the column below would "fill" with California.htm.
Or, I could conceivably use a text or mysql database with two fields for each record: state_name and law_text -- but it would probably be easier to use separate htm files, since there will only be about 20 states involved, and the "database" would never have a large number of records.
The table width would be 100% and each cell would be @33%

Using List
when my form is loaded i populate a list with a database query. now when user selects a value from the list. on "onChange" another query runs and other fields on the form are populated according to the value selected by the user but at this time when page is loaded again and the fields on the form are filld. every thing goes write but the select list doesn't have the same value selected that was selected by the user...the selected list shows the default valuse selected instead.
i want to know that how can we do this that when we select a value from the list and page is populated using this vale and refreshed then again i want to see the selected value in the list box not the dafault value.

PHP Link List
On a page from Thredz (http://www.thredziii.com) I saw a script (it's not on anymore...cause he didn't want the script to be on his page) and I love it...
It's a script that makes it possible that on a page links are sorted ALPHABETICALLY with the first letter of the "URL name"... (take a look on Thredz' site to c what I mean,K?)
Then people got 2 have the abbility to fill in a small form, ON THE SAME PAGE WHERE THE LINKS ARE ON, where they fill in 2 fields; #1 = Name of the Site ($sitename) #2 = URL of the site ($url)
When they fill out it form I want the PHP-script to put the information away as a link (in a *.txt-file...if possible) <A href="$url" target="_blank">"$sitename"</A><br> (something like this??? I'm not sure......) These links have to be sorted alphabetically (on the site's name,$sitename...
I don't know how this works or how I have to make something like this... Could somebody please help me and give me a bit of help with it? Some explaining would be gr8 but the script written for me is the best wish I have.

Getting List Of Newsgroups Via Php
I am trying to write a PHP script that will download a list of all the newsgroups on a news server and put them into a MySQL database.

Best Way To List Pages A - Z

Problems With List..
I have a function returning smth like list($a,$b):
var_dump says:
list(string $a, string $b) blabla()
How can use this strings now? I try:
list($a, $b) = blabla(); print($a);
but it's won't work returning empty string.
I tried also:
$result = blabla(); print $result[0];
but it also won't work.
The only thing I can do is to iterate result with foreach, then it works nicely, but how should I use the result of blabla() function without foreach? I just want to get to $a and $b.
Selection From A List Box.
php and have to implement this functionality to select a user from a list box. I have written the code for this, but the problem is after selecting a name and doing the required task, it again selects the first entry in the list box. So if there are 100 users, the 100th one has to scroll down again and again.
I need to modify this code so that until the session expires, if a person has selected his name once, that name will be selected in the listbox until he changes it.
<select name="name" style="width: 120px;"> <?php $query = sprintf("select * from person order by person_name"); $result = mysql_query($query); $i = 0; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $i++; printf("<option value="$row[person_num]">$row[person_name]</option>"); } ?> </select>

List And Explode
I have been searching for a reason for this behavior but no solution so I figured I would ask.
Basically I have a web page that displays data in a database to the user for updates/deletion/addition. For each data field ont he web page I put the data from the database in the field name with teh field name and data seperated by a |. ex: address|35 Elm St.
I then loop thru all the fields on the form and if the data in the field name doesnt match the data submitted then update the database. Here is the code:
foreach ($_REQUEST as $curFld => $Data) { if ($curFld <> 'Submit') { list ($field, $orig_data, $table, $id) = explode('|', $curFld);
if ($orig_data <> $_POST[$curFld]) { //UPDATE DATABASE $sql = "UPDATE $table SET $field = '".$_POST[$curFld]."' WHERE ID = $id"; $result = mysql_query($sql, $_SESSION['conn']) or die(mysql_error()); } } }
Here is the problem, either list() or explode() is replacing all spaces in $orig_data with underscores so 35 Elm St. becomes 35_Elm_St.. This causes the code to always update this field and any others where this occurs. Obviously I could do this str_replace("_", " ", $orig)data) to fix this problem but if the user wants to use underscores I dont want to replace them. (Address is not the only field on the page.
Dropdown List
