Calculate A Firefighters Schedule In PHP


I need to calculate the following schedule in php. What I need out of the script is what shift is working “today” E.G. $shift = d;.  There are 4 shifts working 24hr days starting at 7 am. The days rotate on 28 day cycles. E.G.  ‘C shift’  is working on July 1 (Sunday) the next Sunday they work is the 29th. I found some code that works with 3 shifts on a different cycle but I have 4 shifts. Code:

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!

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

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.

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?

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.

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).

12am-1am
4am-5am
8am-9am
12pm-1pm
4pm-5pm

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)

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?

Calculate Volume Discount
I'm trying to create a calculation that will look at the qty ordered and compare that to the quantity discounts. An example is as follows.

3,000+ = $100.00/m

So if I order 2500 horses the php page will look at the value entered, select the proper price and calculate the final total. 2500/1000=2.5X$150.00=$375.00 for 2500 Bronco's.

Calculate Totals In A Loop
I am trying to calculate the totals of all the fields pulled up in a loop... i.e. I have a database called "checkout" that has bidder numbers, lot numbers, and amount for each lot number. When a person wins an auction (this is a live auction not an online auction) we enter a new row in the database that has the bidder number, the lot number, and the amount.

After the auction is complete and they are checking out we have the script pull all the rows where the bidder number equals the bidder who is paying, it displays their bidder number, and lists each lot number and amount for that lot on separate lines in a loop statement. I would like to have a final line at the end of the page that displays the total of all the amounts listed. I.e. if they have lot number 12 at $50 and lot number 10 @ $27 and lot number 55 @ $63 the script displays as follows...

bidder number: 101
lot number 12: $50
lot number 10: $27
lot number 55: $63
