PHP :: Using Php To Display Unordered List

How To Automatically Display From A List Box?
I am working on a PHP/HTML form which supports End User queries.

I need the user to select a combination of Airline and corresponding
place of Origin. i,e
Delta - Madison, Dallas, Atlanta
KLM - Amsterdam, Houston, Detroit
Brit - New York, London, Seattle

I have a list of Airlines in a list box. The moment the user selects an
Airline(Delta) from the List box, the list box below it needs to have
(Dallas, Atlanta, Madison) as its options.

How is this done? How do I use a listbox selection as a trigger an
automatically start the next activity?

Trying To Select Names From A Drop Down List And Display Them
So, I already have the code written where I have a drop down menu with names in it. I want to be able to select multiple names from the drop down list and have them display in a table below the drop down menu. First off, I can't get one name to display, not to mention multiples. :p How may I accomplish this?

CODE:

List Of Sybmols Like To Display > On Html Page &gt And Which Are Others
i am making an application.

the user can give description and that description is stored in
database and then the description is shown on html page.

database the following will be stored "<b>hello</b>" but when i display
it on database the hello in bold letter will be displayed.

i know the soultion that i have to replace the occurrences of < with
&lt and occurrences of > with &gt but i don't know that which are other
symbols which needs some repair like above so please give me a list of
html symbols and their equivalent symbol.

Unordered Word Search
I've built a search engine that queries a MySQL database. However,
if I enter "foo bar", the engine will search for that phrase exactly,
and will not find "bar foo" nor "foo something bar". How do you
separate words so that the engine finds them individually? I'm thinking
something like

$tokenized = strtok($query, " ")
mysql_query(" SELECT ... FROM ...
while(...){ WHERE ...}
")

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.

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?

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.

echo "<a href=" .$file.">".$file;
echo "<p>";

I am having some problems with the list() function. Here is some code:

<?

$USERDB = fopen("users.db", "r");

while ($line = fgets ($USERDB, 4096))
{
list ($name, $occupation, $favcolor) = split ("|", $line);

print ("Name: $name<br>");
print ("Job: $occupation<br>");
print ("Favorite Color: $favcolor<br>");
}

fclose ($USERDB);

?>

I want to read a directory for available files and then get the filenames and put them in a drop down list. Whatever the user will select will be the value of the variable $selected. I already found the code to read directories: Code:

Loop Through A List
I want to loop through a list and display it in a table with three columns per row, yet haven't had much luck in doing so. I was thinking if would be something like so Quote:

for ($x = 0; $x < mysql_num_rows($query); $x++) {
if ($x / 3) { ?>
<tr> <? } ?><td> Blah </td></tr></table>

Well, that's as much as I know so far.

Add Number In List
I am outputing a list of 10 values.

10, 20, 30, 40, etc

I can add 15 to one of the values then reorder the values from smallest
to highest but i want to update every single value and assign it values
increamenting by 10

so after the update the second number of 20 and add 15 I get

10, 30, 35, 40

now i want to re output the values above as

10, 20, 30, 40

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.
I bought a $50 book that had some NNTP examples in it, but none of
them show how to just download the groups, not the articles. I tried
on my own for about 2 hours with no luck. If someone can point me in
the right direction to download the group list using PHP, I think I
can figure out how to write it to a database.

Php And Drop Down List
I am coding an email form on a site. A user enters their name and contact email and then selects from a drop down list to which particular email the message should be sent: User1, User2, User3.

server, retrieve a list of all newsgroups beginning with alt. (or comp., or
blah., or wibble., doesn't really matter), and also the newsgroup
descriptions, and then dump them all in an html file?

Php Mailing List
Is it possible to implement a mailing list using PHP?. I know I could
maintain a list of emails addresses in a db and send mail to them through my
website, but how can I get true mailing list behaviour where emails are sent
to a particular address (like mailinglist@mydomain.com) and then distributed
to all of the email addresses?.

Select List
I'm creating a form that has three select lists. The first one has two values EMAIL and SMS. What I want to do is have the two other select lists (named EMAIL and SMS) work so that if EMAIL is selected only e-mail select list can be altered and vice versa with the SMS.

How can I do this? I know to use disabled in <select> -tag, but how can I check the what the value is (and the value changes) and then act acording to it?

Best Way To List Pages A - Z
I now have my emulator site up and running, no longer html but php! Even my vote script now works, thank for all your input. Now I want to have roms on my site for download, but it's a fair long list so you have to devide in sections a - z or something.

Can this be done in a way to create those pages with php/mysql instead of have to write html files for every emulator roms page from a to z? If anyone have done this before I would like to here what the possibilties are.

How To Use A Value From A Pick List?
I'd like to have a form that does the following:
User picks a site from a dropdown list from a MySQL db (that works -
code below, thanks to all those on the web who posted code for this).
Once the value is selected, a second query is run using the site as the
'where' clause and the results are displayed back to the user.

mysql, php, htlm noob. I think once I get this bit,
I'll be able to move forward with more interesting and complex code.

ps - if this message shows up 3 times, my apologies but I've been having
trouble posting.

<?php

// connect to db
$db = mysql_connect("localhost");

// generate result set
$siteresult = mysql_query($sitequery);

// use results

How To List A Directory
I would like to get a list of a local directory content using php. I
would be very appreciative if anybody could tell me how to do that. I
loocked in the php manual but coulsn't find anything (probably I just
missed it).

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>

To-do List To Add To Site?
I'd like to add a basic to-do module to my web site. Could someone
recommand something, either MySQL- or flat-file-based?

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
i am trying to get two dropdown lists working on a page. How do i go about this. For example, I have 1 table which holds countries and cities. When a user selects a country in the first dropdown list, i'd like the second dropdownlist populate with a list of cities etc. from my database.
