How To Change Data Dynamically ...
I'm developing a system where user has a previlage to select
his/her COUNTRY then STATE then CITY respectively. i've put all the
Country names, State names and City name in a Drop-Down combos which
is filled dynamically from the MySQL database. Now my problem is that
i want it in such a way that if one select USA as COUNTRY then all the
STATE(s) of USA should be displayed on the STATE combo not any other.
and then when user selects the STATE in the next combo the CITY combo
should be populated with cities related to that STATE only and not
with any other.

How To Dynamically Change Page Title Using Php And Require_once?
This is an elementary question, but I've not been able to find the answer, so here goes: I am developing a site using php. I have the html header information in a file that I include in all the pages using the require_once function. That is, each page includes the line <?require_once('PageStart.php')?> The PageStart.php file essentially defines the header. Omitting the boring stuff, it's laid out like so: <html> <head> <title>The Title of the Page</title> <?require_once('styles/PageStyles.css')?> </head> <boring stuff snipped> This works great. The only complaint I have is that there are LOTS of pages on the site, and using this approach means that every page is titled "The Title of the Page" When scanning my browser history, I could have surfed to 30 different pages in the site and they all have the same title. Makes it hard to know which page I'd like to go back to. I'd like to have a way to pass a (sometimes) dynamically generated page title to the PageStart.php file. I say sometimes because certain pages (the Main one for example) will always have the same title, so that could be passed statically. There is another series of pages in which the same php file accesses a MySQL database to display information about various family members, and I'd like that title to be generated dynamically (for example, "All about Mary" or "All about Ted" depending on the person being described in the page). Now I KNOW that with php there's a way to do this. I just can't find it.
Making Dynamically Created Checkboxes Check On Value Change?
I have no idea if this is more a PHP question or Javascript question, because my problem hinges equally on both. I have a PHP script that queries a database and creates a list of rows for each item, each with their own checkbox one can select to do stuff later. The PHP script this form posts to creates an array of all the selected checkboxes and does stuff. But, on the form, I want to be able to have the checkboxes auto-check when someone changes the value of a textfield on that row. With some stuff cut out, here's what I have on the form: <!-- Begin function NotEmpty() { if (document.f.trackno$oim.value!="") { document.f.remship.checked = true ; } } // End --> <form name="f" id="f" method="post" action="trackpareportproc.bkk"> <input name="remship[]" type="checkbox" value="$oim" class="remship"> <input type="text" name="trackno$oim" size="40" onBlur="NotEmpty();"> Obviously I think the problem rests in how do I get the JavaScript to know which checkbox to check. I can't make the NAME for each checkbox unique otherwise that would mess up the array that's created later based on which checkboxes are selected.

[PEAR:QuickForm] Dynamically Change A Dropdown Menu According To Another Menu?
I've been using QuickForm for a few months now and I am now given a new challenge: I've got a search form with a dozen of dropdown menus, the first dropdown menu being "Brand". If you select either Brand A, B, C, D... Z, the second dropdown menu "Model" must be dynamically changed to model AA, AB, AC, AD..., according to the models manufactured by the brand selected in the first box. I've seen that done on quite a few sites, but never found if QuickForm had a quick & clean way of doing that.

Saving Data Into Database From A Dynamically-added Textbox
let's say i have a html form with textboxes that can be dynamically added with javascript. i'd like to save each of the textbox's value into a new different row in the database. so i'll have this in my html form: <form action='/add' method='POST'> <a href='javascript:;' onclick='addTextBox()'>Add New Field</a> <!-- new textfield/textbox will be added dynamically everytime the user clicks</a> </form> so basically i should do something like this in the serverside: for ($i = 0; i < totalTextBoxes; ++i) { // iterate every textbox in the html form mysql_query("insert into `books` value (textBoxName[i]); // for every textbox save it into a new row in the table} the problem is, since i created the textbox dynamically using javascript, how can i tell php how many textbox that i actually have there?
Dynamically Populate Drop-down List And Dynamically Include Html File
We have a drop down list on a PHP page, with several product names, and when people click one item, we will refresh the same page with the product name as parameter, and in turn we want to include a HTML file into the content area of the same page. I know it is recommended to put everything into database, but we want the web site to be very "portable", so the drop-downlist and the content should both in text files. Let's say the drop-down list will be poplulated from the product.txt file, and there will be a file for each corresponding item in the drop-down list. From the user point of view, if he wants to add a new product, he will just need to open the product.txt file, and add a new line with the product name, "Laptop", then add a new text file named "laptop" in the same folder which contains the HTML fragment to be included in the content area. What is the easiest way to do this?
Change Data On The Same Page To Something Else
I'm trying to change data on this line of code using a drop down option box. map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint(-79.89505, 40.85708), 10); When the page opens I want the above data to be used. I want to use a drop down menu to select a different radius. Lets say 30 miles. I want to update the page so that the above line of code will update and look like this. map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint(-79.89505, 40.85708), 30); Here is some sections of code I am using. <form action='<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>' method='post'> <select name="radius" class="selectBoxes"> <option value="20">20 miles</option> <option value="30">30 miles</option> <option value="40">40 miles</option> </select> <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Click To Update Map'> </form> <script> map.centerAndZoom(new GPoint(-79.89505, 40.85708), 10); </script>

Refreshing A Page To Display Change In Data
I have a page that scrolls out information from a database. When one of the records has been completed by the user, they press delete at the end of the row, and it sends the record id to a processing page that deletes that record from the database, then returns to the scrolling page. However, the deleted record still shows on the page until one presses the refresh tab on the browswer. Is there some way I can have the page refresh when the processing is done, so that the changes made will be reflected immidiatly, instead of the user having to press the refresh button themselves?

How To Dynamically Name Variables?

Something like for ($i=1; $i<=20; $i++){ if $"name".$i { do this } I've tried everycombination I can think of, but am totally confused. I had no trouble naming the variables dynamically in a form, but I can't get php to call them dynamically.
PHP To Dynamically Generate XML
I am interesting in using PHP to dynamically create an XML document and then use XSLT to transform to XHTML. I have come across two methods for doing this. I made two equivalent examples so you can see what I mean. http://members.shaw.ca/petermichaux...SLT_method.html I am interested in critisim of how I implemented each method. However my main problem is deciding between methods. Which method is better for bigger programs where the bits of the XML data are assembled by various php functions that I write? For example, one php function queries a database table for a list of CD titles. A second php function loops through this CD title list and gets the track listing for each CD from another table in the database. Then the composite XML data (ie. CD title and tracks as nodes) can be tranformed to XHTML.
Dynamically Naming Variables
i have this script for that uses 7 pulldowns for the time of an event each day of the week that gets inserted in to a db. Instead of writing the script 7 times for taking the data from the pulldowns, creating a time based on the hour, minute and AM/PM -can i create something that dynamically creates varibles. Basically takes something like $hour1, $minute1 and automatically creates $hour2, $minute2 and so on. This is kinda difficult to explain, heres a snippit of code which i want to duplicate.

Dynamically Resizing An Image
I want to create a thumbnail image. But I don't want to physically resize each image before uploading it (actually, my client doesn't really have the capability). Can I dictate a height (i.e. 108 px) and have a PHP script that will proportionately size down the image using that height? So, if the original is 360 px wide by 540 px high, the image will automatically size to 108 px high by 72 px wide. How would I do this?

Dynamically Populate PDF Form
I found a free script/class online a few months ago which enabled me to populate pre-built PDF forms with data using PHP; without using any toolkits etc (it worked perfectly). It was simply a PHP script. I lost the script when my PC died recently DOH! Does anybody know where I can find such a script again? I have searched google all night, but all I find is commercial products (not cheap!) or toolkits for generating PDFs', not filling pre-built PDF forms. Here is what I am trying to do: I have built a site for a client which incorporates e-learning. Students take lessons and if at the end of the course their grades are sufficient, they download a PDF certificate. The certificate is in PDF format with Form Fields for the required data. The certificate needs to display the students name, grade and course name. I need a PHP script which can import server-side data into a PDF form which the user can then print or save (flat). The last (and lost) script did this so I know it is possible.
PHP To Dynamically Make New Pages? DOH!
I am building a CMS system for a client to edit add and remove content from his new site, not a problem however he now wants the facility to create new pages and be able to edit the new pages, how do you create a new page dynamically using php and mysql?

ERM... Any standard commands as in create_page()? How would I make the new page have variables included so that it could echo mysql content onto the newly created page?

Creating Queries Dynamically
I've been struggling with a problem for a while and I think that the solution lies in the ability to create queries dynamically. On one page I have a number of drop-down menus created dynamically, so the number of menus can vary. Each drop-down represents a try/touchdown scored, and the user would select from the menu who scored it. On the next page I want to take the info entered and send it to the database, automatically creating new entries for each try/touchdown scored. Code:

Dynamically Populate A Drop Down Box
I have a website with products for sale and along side each item I have displayed the number of each of these items that are left in stock. What I want to do is to have a dropdown box so that the user can choose the qty of itmes to order but they should not be able to order more than what is in stock. For example if there are 5 items left then the drop down box must be initialised at 0 and show the numbers 1,2,3,4,5. When a purchase is made then the drop down must be adjusted to match what is left in the database. Code:
Dynamically Naming Variables
I'm pulling values from a db, the values are all domain names. Is there any way after pulling them in with a while loop, that I can define a variable name as the value of what I have pulled? $query = "SELECT city FROM cities ORDER BY city"; $results = mysql_query($query); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array ($results, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { $thisiswhereIwantTheValueToGo = $row['city']; } I understand that the above will make the value of the variable = to the $row['city'], is there any way I can dynamically create the variable name based on that same value?

Dynamically Create And Save Php Page
Here is my code: $filepointer=fopen("http://www.mysite.org/usersetup/newusers/" . $SESSION_UID . "/configsite.php", "w+"); $data = "<? $name = ' . $datatosave. ' ?>"; fputs($filepointer, $data); fclose($filepointer); My goal is to dynamically create a .php file with the contents of <? $name = "variable data"; ?> My code doesn't work. Something with the php page, I think. I and using similar code to populate .txt files with dynamic data, without variables, and it works file. Apparently, a quick change to .php is harder than I thought. I"ve even tried sending a simple line of data to the php page with no luck. Heck, I even tried doing it as a text file and rename to .php but it didn't like my rename.
Dynamically Generated Results Table
I'm trying to write a script that dynamically generates HTML tables depending on the results from an SQL query. So far, I have managed to set the HTML table headers to be the same as those in the MySQL table. [thanks to rod k -cheers !] Now i'm trying to put the results in the table. Basically, I need a MySQL function to retrieve data and put it into the table until there is no data left.... (At the moment I am using "mysql_fetch_array()", but with this it is necessary to know the names of the columns to retrieve the information for each result set. Since my table is dynamic and should be able to build itself from different MySQL tables, the column names aren't fixed and so i can't use this to put the data in the tables...)
How To Dynamically Generate Functions In A Class
I am having to be tasked with a rather painful task of updating an existing class by adding a dynamic amount of database field values; for each database field value there has to be a generated array inside the class plus a function "get method" to return it. I do not want to have to constantly type out: function getStuff() { return $this->stuff; } for every occurrence of stuff I find that is generated by the database SELECT call on the fields of as many as 20 different tables!! This is enormous and I would love a more dynamic, functional method to generate.. methods.
Saving A Dynamically Created Png Image
I have a web site that responds to a user request by sending an image generated dynamically. the request page call is something like this <img id = "picid" src= "generateimage.php?$picName"> Where $picName holds the parameters needed for a particular image generateimage.php sends the request to the server which generates the image as $pngstr and responds: header("Content-Type: image/png".chr(13).chr(10)); header("Content-Length: ".strlen($pngstr).chr(13).chr(10).chr(13).chr(10)); echo $pngstr; Now, I want the user to be able to right click the image and save it with a given name - related to but not exactly $picName, as a png. I also have a set of images forming an animation generated in much the same way as the single image described above. How could I have the user save these? is there an animated png yet?

Dynamically Filling Selection Boxes
I was wondering if anyone knows how to fill a selection box with different values depending on a selection made in a nother selection box in the same page. I dont know if what I'm tryin to do can be done or not, at least in PHP. First a quick background: We have a number of projects running right now, each of which is subdevided into various tasks. Now, I've got two selection boxes. The first contains a list of all current projects. What I want to do is this: when someon selects a project from the first box, I'd like the second box to be filled with a list of the tasks that have been assigned tot hat project.
Dynamically Generate MySQL Queries
what I expect will be a reasonably simple question. I have an html form (which is generated in php) which contains a number of rows (one row per product in the 'products' table). It is generated with the following php <code> // create a table for the results echo('<table border=1 cellpadding=2>'); echo('<tr> <th>Product Description</th><th>Sales $</th><th>Sales Units</th><th>Credits $</th><th>Credits Units</th> </tr>'); // add the results to the table while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) ) { // get columns from the output on the current row $ProdDesc = $row['ProductDescription']; $ProdID = $row['ID']; // write content collected above into table cells echo('<tr><td>'); echo($ProdDesc); echo('</td><td>'); echo('<form action="update-db.php" method="post"><input type="text" name="sd'); echo($ProdID); echo('">'); echo('</td><td>'); echo('<form action="update-db.php" method="post"><input type="text" name="su'); echo($ProdID); echo('">'); echo('</td><td>'); echo('<form action="update-db.php" method="post"><input type="text" name="cd'); echo($ProdID); echo('">'); echo('</td><td>'); echo('<form action="update-db.php" method="post"><input type="text" name="cu'); echo($ProdID); echo('">'); echo('</td></tr>'); } echo('</table>'); //the table is complete </code> The values sd1, su1, cd1, cu1,...... cuXX are all available to the update-db.php page which is called when this form is submitted so I am fairly sure this is working correctly. So far, so good, but when it comes to inserting the data into the database I have not been able to create the SQL dynamically (in testing I know the number of products and have manually written lots of SQL INSERTs but this will not work in the real world) The SQL needs to look like roughly like this: mysql_query ("INSERT INTO sales_dollars (SaleID, ProductID, WeekCommencing, Sales, Credits) VALUES ('', '$prodID','$WeekCommencing','$sd1', '$cd1')"); My logic was to say something like this (which needless to say doesn't work !) <?php for ($prodID = 1; $prodID <= $prodCount; $prodID++) { $currentSD = "sd" . $prodID $currentSU = "su" . $prodID $currentCD = "cd" . $prodID $currentCU = "cu" . $prodID mysql_query ("INSERT INTO sales_dollars (SaleID, ProductID, WeekCommencing, Sales, Credits) VALUES ('', '$prodID','$WeekCommencing','$currentSD', '$currentCD')"); } I may have messed up the for loop here but the real problem was that query would insert '$sd1', '$sd2' etc as text strings into the database rather than evaluating $sd1 to it's value (passed from the original table which would be a number) I have tried using eval() with no success (though that may well be due to my complete newbieness with php). I have also tried passing the values from the original html as arrays and trying to use simillar logic as above to read from $array[$currentArrayElement] also with no success. Again, if I manually echo the results of $array[0] I am returned the value entered in the first html field but I can not dynamically select the next array element. I hope I have made sense of the problem without writing unnecessary garbage.
Populating Dynamically Generated TextFields
If one assigns something to the value iattribute off an input /text field, that value will be displayed when the form is loaded. My problem is, when building a form dynamically, the only way I can get the text to show is by doing the above, however, as this is an update form, when the form POSTS to processUpdate.php, both the data entered by the user AND the data in the value attribute are inserted/updated. So, how does one dynamically build a form where the data is displayed in the text fields but value atttribute is not set. PHP Code:
