PHP :: How Do I Insert And Display Currency In PHP/MySQL?

Insert Into MYSQL Using PHP
I'm having problems with a form I've created to insert or update into a MySQL database using PHP. The fields (some are varchar and some are text) sometimes contain single or double quotes or slashes or '¿' and some other special characters. These seem to throw off the INSERT process in one way or another. Either that or when I got to display this information, it doesn't come out right. Are there functions that I need to run on the information to make this database safe before I INSERT (or UPDATE) or before I display it?

PHP-MySQL Insert
$Insert_query = mysql_db_query( "INSERT INTO $Table_result VALUES('$Item_Name', $Item_Price)" );

Why do I get a parse error on this line of code???

Insert Into MySQL
I have a system from a company called ProTx they provide online credit card transactions. I have their PHP code, and have had to change some parts of this to work correctly but am getting stuck on this part.

This code, is part of a page that sends off some variables to their server and expects a response. I am able to send the variables, and get the response but I want to put them into a database so that I have all refunds seperate from all orders. PHP Code:

Mysql Insert
I can't figure why an INSERT query won't work. This is the table:

downloads
----------------
id - int(10) - auto_increment
category - char(1)
file - text
date - varchar(20)
user - varchar(50)
desc - text

These are the variables:

$category = "1";
$file_name = "cow.gif";
$date = "0000-00-00 00:00";
$login = "fresh";
$desc = "Bertha the cow.";

This is the code: PHP Code:

Problem With MySQL INSERT
I am trying to create a user interface to add/delete news.Here is my code:

Insert Into Mysql Database
It sounds very simple, but for some reason I just can't figure it out, and it will save a lots of time to me, if someone can direct me into the right direction. I was trying to input data into mysql table through post method, but it was not working. I made it simple and just tried to enter anything from a php file, but it does not work, so there is something that i am doing wrong with the insertion query.

$link = mysql_connect($hostName, $userName, $password);
echo("connected");

mysql_select_db($databaseName, $link);
echo("database selected");
echo ($databaseName);

mysql_query("INSERT INTO image VALES('','','','','','','','','', 'hello', '', '', '','','','','')", $link);

echo ("done");

I am trying to enter into one of those fields, but it does not populate the table in mysql database.

PHP -> MySQL Insert Statement
heres what i am using : Code:

if (($p1 == $p2) && ($p1 != " ")) {print "accepted";
print " entering you into the database....";
$enter = 'INSERT INTO member(name, psw) VALUES("$name", "$p1")'
$goenter = mysql_query($enter) or die("Entery Failed due to " . mysql_error());}
else {print " Password did not match, try again!";}} ?>

now heres the problem : when it writes to the table (all the db selection etc is fine) all that gets written is : "$name" and "$p1"

literally $name and $p1 *** not their values. I have tried combinations of quotes ( as " " will interpolate but ' ' will not) but still no dice. and w/o the quotes around the values ("$name" , "p1") --- it will return an error stating the colum ($name value) does not exsist.

Insert Objects Into MySQL ?
I'd like to know if there is a way to insert any object into a mysql-database.PHP Code:

Mysql Insert Just Wont Have It!!

when the user clicks on submit this function gets called to format the selected time:Code:

Return The Key From Last Mysql Insert
How do I return the auto incremented value of the primary key from a tuple that I have just inserted into a MySql database. If that is not quite clear enough then this long winded explanation should explain what I mean: Say I have a MySql table called "n" with two columns:

1: id = Autonumber - Primary Key
2: name = Text

If I insert a tuple with the following mysql command using a PHP interface:

Quote: INSERT INTO `n` ( `name`) VALUES ('Paul Smith')

Then a tuple with with values say (34,Paul Smith) will exist in the MySql table. 34 is the value of the auto generated primary key. The question is how can I find this value 34, which is the primary key, without running a statement like :
Quote: SELECT * FROM `n` WHERE `name` = 'Paul Smith'

MySQL INSERT Problem
I am trying to insert data into the fields id and term of the table
key. id is an auto-incrementing field.

Each of the following forms fails:-

INSERT INTO key (id, term) VALUES (0, 'dog')

INSERT INTO key ('id', 'term') VALUES (0, 'dog')

INSERT INTO 'key' ('id', 'term') VALUES (0, 'dog')

INSERT INTO 'key' (id, term) VALUES (0, 'dog')

mysql_error() returns messages of the following form:-

You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds
to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'key (id,
term) VALUES (0, 'dog')' at line 1

What is wrong with the syntax?

MySQL: INSERT If Name Doesn't Exist
I am trying to write a query that will insert if a row with the same name (col='name') doesn't alread exist.

So basically, if the query trys to insert Jim, but Jim is already in the table, it will skip the operation.

Can anyone tell me how to do this?

Also - is it more efficiont to run one query with multiple inserts or multiple queries with one insert.

MySQL Insert With PHP Array
I have a form that collects input to be stored in a database. I want to store each field in the form in the database. But for some reason this code doesn't work: PHP Code:

Using Php To Insert Data Into MYSQL
I just whipped up this script for part of our project. Do the insert statements and script look legit in order to make php insert data into my mysql tables which I already created in previous scripts? Code:

Default Value To Insert Into MySQL
What should I insert as the default value if a form field is blank? My fields don't currently accept null.

if($_POST['height']) {
// error checking
$height = $_POST['height'];
}
else {
$height = '';
}
Should $height be equal to '', NULL, or maybe 'NULL'? I'm thinking 'NULL' incase I or someone else decides to change the field to accept null?

PHP MYSQL Insert Syntax
$q = "INSERT INTO downloads (sub, title, name, email, link, date, description, pic)
VALUES ('$c', '$t', '$n', '$e', '$l', 'NOW()', '$d', 'NULL')";
$addinfo = mysql_query($q);

Does that look right? I don't have many resources for php and mysql.

Bulk Insert => MYSQL
How do I instert multiple rows of SQL into a database from a php file?
Is there a way to have a PHP file read a MYSQL DUMP (.sql) file and run it?

Mysql Insert Query
I can't figure out whats wrong witht his query.

Quotemysql_query("INSERT INTO `serverInfo` ( `id` , `serverid` , `size` , `filename` , `timestamp` ) VALUES('null', '1', '".$size."', '".$dir."', '".$date."'") or die(mysql_error());

Anything stupidly wrong here? the id,serverid, size, filename,timestamp thsoe are all right.

Error:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '' at line 1

XML Currency Script
I have a table in my database that has 4 different currencies in it (I plan to add more when i have this xml update script done). This has 4 fields, 2 of which are code (eg USD, JPY) and multiplier (USD is taken as 1, and the rest are multiplied from there). Now, I would like to automatically update these currency multipliers using this xml data feed:

"http://www.ecb.int/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml"

The only problem is, i dont know where to start with it. Now if anyone could help me either create an array from this data (so i could use $cymulti['USD'] would equal the rate from the data feed that had the currency USD) or create individual variables such as $USD would equal the rate from the data feed for the currency USD).

Currency Formatting
i'm trying to format the output of a record in access, which i am
pulling from through php (odbc) and the formatting is set at 4 decimal
places, which i don't want. i want currency and no decimal places.
I was trying to use this example, but i have no bloody idea howo to use it.
or where to put it for that matter:

<?php

$number = 1234.56;

// let's print the international format for the en_US locale
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_US');
echo money_format('%i', $number)."
";
// USD 1,234.56

?>

Currency Symbols
I have a problem, we use a microsoft (mssql) product at work which stores currency symbols in the database.

Now when I retrieve these symbols from the database and try to echo them to the screen using php I just get a funny square box symbol instead of the actual currency symbol. Any idea on how I can get the symbols to show correctly?

Currency Rounding
I have the following output from a calculation: 211.5

I want to print this to screen as 211.50 (currency), but the round($value,2) doesn't force a rounding... is it possible?

Format Currency
I want to take a variable and make sure that I output to the browser in dollar format ie if I set $price=100. I want to make sure that $price appears as 100.00. in turn make sure that when $price=100.97 is outputted as 100.97

MySQL: Insert...select - Update?
I was reading about insert select
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/insert-select.html

Thought this may be a better way to perform a query I'm doing. The differenc is that I need td select from one field, and then update another field in the same record (it is a backup/undo field).

Is there a way to do this in one query? It's a large chunk of data (longtext) so I thought this would be faster than the alternative...

Mysql Insert Statements Problem
i've created a site locally on my machine using php 4 and mysql3 all working fine, however having bought a new laptop i decided to upgrade to php 5 and mysql 5. i've sorted any other problems i had but bizarrely none of my mysql insert statements throughout the site work any more? they worked before? is there a syntax change to inserts or something that i'm missing?

Php/mysql Insert, Update, Delete All-in-one
I have a check box form in an admin area, that links various related tables into one.

These check box results are stored in an array, and then looped, there are in fact four groups of arrays, but the array length could become large (i.e. dozens - not hundreds)

The issue I have is that from the one form multiple things need to occur.

- If a box is checked and the record doesn't exist a new record needs to be inserted.
- If a box is checked and the record does exist, it should be ignored (as it already exists).
- If the box is unchecked and the record exists, it should be deleted.
- If the box is unchecked and the record doesn't exist it should be ignored (the record doesn't exists).

I'm looking for the logic and process (rather than being hand fed code ) Can this be done with 1 (or more likely 2) sql statements. Or do I have to loop thru the arrays, checking the existance and then applying a specific sql statement depending upon checked status and the records existance. Someone mentioned using IF() in the sql statement, but I am not familiar with that one.

How Do I INSERT A Value That Contains A Variable Into A MySQL Database?
I'm trying to insert values into my database that contain a variable
that gets incremented by one for each item in a shopping cart.
item_name becomes item_name1, item_name2, item_name3, and so on for
the total number of items in the cart.

This code works great when i only have one shopping cart item to deal
with.....

Insert Multiple Arrays Into Mysql
I am having problems writing the code to generate my SQL INSERT query. I have 3 arrays and one static variable ($cat_number):

$track_name[]
$music_link[]
$track_number[]
$cat_number

Should I be using a foreach command. I know how to insert multiple values but its generating the query that i'm not sure about.

INSERT INTO table (track_name, music_link, cat_number, track_number)
VALUES
(var1,var2,var3,var4),
(var5,var6,var7,var8),
(var9,var10,var11,var12);

I don't want to store the actual array in the dataabase, I am just using an array to catch the data.

Insert Text From TEXTAREA Into MySQL
I'm trying to figure out how to INSERT/UPDATE text from TEXAREA into
MySQL. Because TEXAREA has no VALUE, I'm hitting a brick wall here.

Multiple PHP/MySQL INSERT Statements
I have a text file of data in a file (add2db.txt) where the entries are
already entered on separate lines in the following form:

INSERT INTO `reviews` VALUES("", "Tony's", "Lunch", "Great atmosphere.
Good food.", " (Harry Houdini - 03/01/2004)");

INSERT INTO `reviews` VALUES("", "Le Chow Place", "Lunch", "yada yada",
" (Herbert Hoover - 03/03/2004)");

INSERT INTO `reviews` VALUES("", "Golden Dragon", "Lunch", "Exquisite.
Good food.", " (Minnie Mouse - 01/03/2004)");

etc etc

These have been parsed from a review form that a client already
submitted. What I need to do now after I have reviewed the information
for appropriateness and grammer is to insert it into my MySQL database.
I would write single line entries like this:

// Set Mysql Variables
$host = "localhost";
$user = "root";
$pass = "";
$db = "rest";
$table = "reviews";

// Connect to Mysql, select the correct database, and run the query
which adds the data gathered from the file into the database

mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db) or die(mysql_error());
$add_review = "INSERT INTO $table
values('','$rname','$umeal','$ucomment','$uname')";
mysql_query($add_all) or die(mysql_error());

But how would I write the $add_review to read each line of the
add2db.txt and enter it as a separate entry?

Insert Giant XML Files Into MYsql
I have a 36 meg XML file that contains 11,000 records, Each record has about 40 pieces of information. Here is a simple version of the file Code:

Text To Date And Insert To Mysql...
Kindly break out the 4x2 and bring me to my senses.
I seem to have gotten myself totally confused with php.net, mysql.org pages
on dates etc, as well as groups.google.

Could someone explain, even using pseudo code, how to take a text input I
have set up as YYYY-MM-DD using php, and convert to a value mysql will
insert into a Date (not timestamp, not datetime) field.

How To Insert Arrays Into Mysql Database
This is my order.php file. Now I try to make a new php-file for processing the ordered items on this page, into another table "ordered_products" in the database. I want to INPUT following values into the table "ordered_products":
'order_num', 'order_item' and 'order_ant'

I know how to insert rows in a table using the INSERT query, but I don't know how to do it while looping the arrays. I have to fetch the arrays from this page, and insert them row by row in the "ordered_products" table. Code:

Multiple Table Insert With Php Mysql
I am having and issue getting this code working. It seems rather simple but I cannot figure out why only one sql statement is exectuing and the insert statements the other 2 are not exectuting and updating the other 2 tables. I need to do this. I need to update one table, then from that I need to retrieve the mysql_insert_id or just get the id of the last record in the tabe.

There is an auto increment column that gets assigned a unique id each time a record is inserted. I need this id number then I need it to place data into 2 other tables that will use this value as a reference. here is the code:

Format Currency With More Than 2 Decimals
I've tried to use both round and money_format but I can't seem to get what i what.

I have a shopping cart on my web site and I had the tax to the subtotal for calculating the total.

However the following problem arises when using round():
$13.2818
becomes $13.28 (should be $13.29)

$13.2772
becomes $13.28 (works fine)

Is there another function that will ALWAYS round up after X number of decimals?

Numeric Currency To Words
I have a program which calculates some transactions and giving the total as numbers. for eg. 1000.00. I want to display it in words also. Like (One thousand only)..

Clean Currency Input
I wrote the following function as a "cleaner" for a currency input:

function is_currency($v) {
//returns a string with only the numbers for a currency format
$v = str_replace("$", "", $v);
$regex = '/(?:([0-9]+)|.)/'
if(preg_match($regex, trim($v) ) ){
$v = $v + 0.00001;
if (is_float($v)) {
return round($v, 2);
}
}
else {
return 0;
}
}

I want users to be able to put in things like:
NZ$12.34
$12.34
12
12.3456
1,002.23
and it should always translate into a number with two decimals (e.g. 12.34
or 12.00)

I am sure that this is probably the clumsiest way ever to do this. How can
I improve this function?

PS despite numerous efforts I am still super weak on regular expressions. I
can only copy them and not write them myself.

Form To Insert Mysql Row *and* POST Data
I'm reasonably new to PHP and after searching all over the place can't find anything useful

I need to insert some variables into a mysql row and then POST variables to another web page using the same form

The page i'm posting to is an SSL (bank hosted)ecommerce transaction page which I have no powers to change

I don't have any problems inserting just mysql rows or making html forms to post separately, I just don't know where to start to get the one form to do both.

How Do I Insert And Display Currency In PHP/MySQL?
