Schedule
Currently, I have a database that stores a course schedule. For example: Course Title, Start Time (datetime), End Time (datetime), Mon (T/F), Tues (T/F), Wed (T/F) Thurs (T/F), Fri (T/F) I want to take this data and graph it as a visual calendar using tables. For example: Time Monday Tuesday Wednes ... 10:00AM WS1093 10:30AM WS1093 11:00AM WS1093 11:30AM 12:00PM EH2312 12:30PM EH2312 1:00PM EH2312 Something like that. What's the best way to do this? Clearly, I could make a an html calendar and load it up with a bunch of if statements but is there a more elegant way to fill in the calendar? Are there any classes available to easily do this? Code examples are very much welcomed!

TV Schedule?
I've seen this on a number of TV sites, where on the front page they tell you what's playing at the time you're browsing, what's coming up next, etc. I want to do this for a site I'm working on, but I have no idea where to start.

Schedule And Php.exe
i am making an installer for a shoutcast control panel i have designed http://sourceforge.net/projects/cast-control it runs on both windows and linux I have made a bitrate controller that runs a batch file or cron job (depending on the operating system) which will run a php file with php. In the batch file i have c:/php/php.exe "D:/pathto/shoutcast_cpanel/bitrate/bitrate.php" The problem is that i cannot include the database.php file which is in the same directory as bitrate.php. I was wondering how to make this possible or at least include the database settings from the file somehow. The reason im not just running http://serverurl/bitrate/bitrate.php is because under windows it opens up a new windows in explorer for every time.

Creating A Schedule
I am building a diet/weight loss website where a customer would subscribe for 1,3,6 or 12 months. I am using Paypal IPN to handle the subscription payments. I would like to create a schedule when the customer first logs on, from the date they signed up to the date when the subscription ends and every 7 days is highlighted as the weigh in day. Basically I would like to generate a list of dates from one date to another with every 7th day highlighted.

Schedule Script Run
I need to schedule a php script to be run daily at 12.30am. What command can I place in my crontab to do this? I'm confused because a web browser is required to run a typical php script. I thought about lynx, but I'm not sure how to run it, and then exit after it runs.

Schedule Script
Is there a way to get my script to run on regularly scheduled intervals without using cron? My hosting provider sucks. cannot use cron. I was thinking perhaps I could create a file every hour in a certain directory and then fire the script when the file count reaches a certain number, and then clear out the directory or something like that.

Simple Calendar/schedule
I'm looking to develop a simple php calendar/schedule - similar to outlook calendar - that does not rely on a database but rather writes to a file. I need to be able to add to/delete from the schedule. As I am only starting out with php I am a little confused by the codes which links to databases and how to adapt them to only write to a flat file.

Wrong Dates In A Schedule
I am using the following code (many thanks for the code folks BTW) to generate 3 schedules in three tables one is a schedule with 7 day intervals and two are daily schedules. The two daily schedules seem to have out of sync dates at the start of each schedule. The dates look as if they may be dates from the preceding loop. I am presuming that I need to reset something after the completion of each loop but I am not sure what. $now = time(); $day = $now + 7*24*60*60; $cutoff = strtotime("+$months months"); while ($day <= $cutoff) { $date = date('Y-m-d', $day); $insert = "INSERT INTO daily_data SET subscr_id='$subscr_id', date='$date'"; mysql_query($insert); $day = $day + 7*24*60*60; } //then create a daily schedule in the excercise table for($i=0;$i<=($sched);$i++) mysql_query("INSERT INTO exercise_data SET subscr_id='$subscr_id', date=date_add(now(),INTERVAL LAST_INSERT_ID() DAY)"); //then create a daily schedule in the food and diet table for($i=0;$i<=($sched);$i++) mysql_query("INSERT INTO food_data SET subscr_id='$subscr_id', date=date_add(now(),INTERVAL LAST_INSERT_ID() DAY)");

How To Set Up Multiple Dates For Schedule?
I have a question about how to set up dates in my mysql database. I am setting up a show schedule database for a friend at a local college tv station. This would normally be pretty straight forward and easy. The problem lies in the fact that their show lineup is not huge, therefore they air most of their shows that the students produce up to 5 times a day and also some of these shows -not all- come on all week long (Sunday thru Saturday) and some only come on one or two days out of the week. My database (so far) contains the following tables: ...

Schedule A Cron Job With Php Script
Is it at all possible to schedule a cron job from a php script? Perhaps cron isn't my best option. I need to have a script run automatically at one specific time and not repeat. The way I was thinking of doing this is to schedule a cron job, then when it runs remove it from crontab. Is this possible, or even the right solution?

How To Schedule Jobs On A Host?
I'm using a php hosting company for my website. It seems most php pages are user-event triggered, so it is difficult to schedule something to run regularly. For example, user puts something in discussion board, and I need to update my search index to include it. Since building index is pretty IO intensive and takes long time, I hope to do it once a day when traffic is very low or zero so it doesn't impact server performance. I can't really rely on user events to trigger such things. For example, user won't expect his click would trigger a 20 minute delay so I can piggy bag an index-build at the page handler, and there might not even be user clicking my site at the time I desire. Is scheduling for jobs (or something similar) achievable using regular PHP? (I don't have shell login, etc. for the typical PHP hosting service).

Setting Up A Time Schedule?
I have a php script that needs to run 6 times a day, the documents that came with it suggest that it should be setup as a cron job, but where my site is hosted, I'm unable to do this. so I thought that maybe I could setup a php time schedule, so that the script will run inbetween these times when a users hits the site: 12am-1am 4am-5am 8am-9am 12pm-1pm 4pm-5pm 8pm-9pm but also I'm wondering how the script could keep track if the script has already been ran for a particular time period.

Table With Weekly Schedule From A Database?
I'm designing a site for a community radio station and the schedule needs to be generated from the list of programs that are in the database the shows table has the following colums show_id, show_name, day, start_time, end_time (i didn't list the non-relevant ones for this portion of the site) because a table has to be built left to right instead of top to bottom (cell for monday 8am then tuesday 8am instead of all the monday then tuesday etc) and not all the programs are the same length (i think i can use row span="x" depending on the length of the show) I'm quite lost. should i have other colums? how do i query the database to pull the data out in the proper order and build the table?

How Would Watchers Know, Without A Cyclic Check On MySQL Schedule Table About Task Validity?
I have developed a PHP-based website where a "planner" user can make up schedules of activities to be performed, storing them into MySQL tables. Afterwards, other "watcher" users can connect to the website and retrieve closest task due time, and keep retrieving next task after each one has been performed. The problem arises if the planner asynchronously changes the schedule, e.g. deleting the task "watcher" users consider to be the next one, or inserting a closer one. How would watchers know, without a cyclic check on MySQL schedule table about task validity? I would need a sort of asynchronous server-pushing tecnhique towards watcher's browser when any schedule modification occurs. Would you say this could be done with PHP alone?

Php Emails
When a client submits a form an email is dispatched via php to the email address. The problem is mainly with hotmail. When the email is sent, the message has a "!" sign next to it and at the top of the email the following message is listed: The sender of this message, confirm+XCACaMXx@facebookmail.com, could not be verified by Sender ID. Learn more about Sender ID. Some of my clients might get worried and delete the message. Is there a way I can overcome this problem ? Here is my script: Code:

Getting ' In Emails Sent Via Php
I don't know if this is a problem with my webmail client, or with my contact form. In my contact form I don't use magic quotes or addslashes, however, it's most likely set to use it in my server's php configuration file. When I receive an email, I open it using squirrelmail, and before every ' or ", there's a . My contact form basically picks up 3 or 4 POST variables, puts them together in another variable, for example $message, by means of = and .= (period-equals), then uses mail($message, etc) (I know I'm just asking for email header injection).
