Dynamic Web Pages Using The Checkbox Component
I am trying to create a page where my users choose from a list of topics with a checkbox, then have a page generated from the topics that they have chosen. How do I go about doing this or where I could find the script for this.

Converting Html Pages Into Dynamic Pages
I built a website in html, using Dreamweaver. I need to have a database built within these pages and the person who is going to do it told me that they will have to convert all my html pages into dynamic pages (php). Is it complicated to do this or do I just have to save my pages in php instead of html in Dreamweaver ?

Dynamic Checkbox
I have a table in my database which stores locations from around the world(locations_table.id is the primary key). This table can be edited and new records added etc via a web page which is fine. My problem lies when I create a new record in my 2nd table (via a web page) and while adding this record I need to be able to select multiple locations that the record is associated with (i.e. the use of checkboxes would seem ideal). I can retrieve the locations and display them dynamically on screen which is fine but it is the saving of the data back into the database which I need help and advice on how to do as I believe all of the location.id's would have to be saved into one varchar field like Ƈ,2,3,4' etc.

Dynamic Checkbox Insert
My current problem, is actually a couple of problems I'm having. First, I have a page that lists users in my database, by dynamic checkbox. What I am trying to do is simply just insert those users that are checked into the table...seems easy, but for some reason, I can't seem to get it right. Basically taking this first page and then want to pass it to another that will do the insert...this is where my second problem comes in. I'm passing a variable along with this and am able to get it to the 1st page, but it will not go to the 2nd page.. Code:

Dynamic Checkbox List - DB Update
I have a set of questions which are being dynamically output: for($i=0; $i<count($question_array); $i++) {echo $question_array[$i][question] . "<input type='checkbox' name='question_" . $question_array[$i][id] . "' value='Y'' . "><br>";} I then want to update each question in the DB. I want to loop through each question id and carry out the relevant action (either enable or disable). What is the best way to do this?? As I am dynamically generating the variable name (e.g. question_50) what is the best way to loop through these updating the relevant id?

Create A Type Of Dynamic Checkbox
Trying to create a type of dynamic checkbox. I would like it to represent the current state. This check box is to check the values within a database. If the value is 1 (active) the box will be checked. If the value is 0 (inactive) the box will not be checked. Also, Need the values to be submitted to the database as checked. I cannot recall the code I used in the past which was successful, so I am currently at a loss Code is as follows: Code:

Problems With Dynamic Checkbox - Need To Create Array
The problem I have concerns a dynamically created table/form which pulls in results from a user search of a mysql database. This works fine and pulls in results (title/author/isbn/price) and dynamically creates the table dependent upon how many results are found. For each result there is a dynamically created checkbox, which is bound to a unique field from the database(in this case isbn). My problem then is: the dynamically created checkbox submits an isbn value to the next page - an order form. However I need that a user can select a number of checkboxes from the table. At the moment, each selection overwrites the other. It may be vary obvious - but I need to work out some way of storing the checkbox info in an array that gets submitted to my order form page. at the moment the code for my checkbox within the html form is: <input name="isbn_input" type="checkbox" id="isbn_input" value="<?php echo $row_Rs_panozzo_search['isbn']; ?>" /> </font></td> This works passing one value through to my order form, but I need to set it up so it passes multiple values.

Dynamic Pages
As big as the net has got over the years, we all depend on huge databases of information to be displayed in pages, either it be links or articles. So if I wanted to show informaiton from a database on a page that a person would click on a link to get to. How would I do so without using www.blabla.com/linkpage.php?userlink=1 . Since search engines are steering away from certain characters like ? and & in a link. So getting a page crawled can be impossible. So is there a way to do this without using those chartacters ?

Dynamic Or Static Pages?
I just created a new site, where I have my products stored in my MySQL database. I've used mod-rewrite to parse out the "brand" and "productname" from my URL's, so they look more SEO friendly...ie: http://example.com/brand-product.php Problem is, I'm not sure how to handle special characters in the URL... as all of my URL's now have #134;, reg;... and other decimal and entity equiv's in them. I can only think of one way around this, which is by using static pages... which I'm hesitant to do(have php spit out a product page for each product).

Dynamic Time On Different Pages
how would you create a date and time format in your page? how would you make this date and time not to change back to the previous time when you click the "BACK BUTTON" ? Meaning if you have a time like this: 13 of August, 2007 08:11 PM in one of your pages then when you continued it to the "next page" you will have assuming that time changed to this, 13 of August, 2007 08:12 PM and i forgot to do something in the previous page, the date and time format returns to the old time stating like this: 13 of August, 2007 08:11 PM when you could have: 13 of August, 2007 08:12 PM the updated time. how would you to that not having the old time or previous time in all of your web pages withour returning to the old time? I do hope you undesrtood what i meant?

Static Pages Instead Of Dynamic
There must be millions of dynamically generated html pages out there now, built by on-the-fly php code (and jsp, perl cgi, asp, etc). Programatic page generation is transparently useful. But querying a database, negotiatinig lots of if-then-else logic and echo'ing html code out on port 80 every time a page is requested has to be a huge waste of resources.Why not use that logic to print static html instead of dynamic? The few pages that need to be dynamic (perhaps the results of a database query) probably represent only a small fraction of the total number of pages that are rendered by on the fly code. Seems to make sense to me. All you need to do is work the output directories into your code logic somehow, and do a few one-time-only mkdirs before printing out the static html. Am I missing something? Why is it so little open source page generation software acually works that way?

Getting Dynamic Pages Indexed
I would like to know what the best way to get my dynamic pages indexed by Google, Yahoo, and MSN are. Here are some options that I thought of: 1. Getting rid of all the _id tags in the URLs, so product_id=1000 becomes product=100 2. Change the "?" to "/" so www.example.com/store?product_id=1000 becomes www.example.com/store/~product=1000 3. Using the apache mod rewrite to change the URLs, so that I get URLs like: www.example.com/store/product/1000 4. Creating a static HTML map that points to all the dynamic URLs on my site 5. Creating a static HTML *version* of every dynamic page on my site Someone has suggested each of the 5 steps before. As you can tell, each step becomes a little more work, and #5 will require some real programming. Does anyone know which of these are necessary?

Dynamic URLs On Pages
I change a script that changes urls within dynamically generated pages. $MyReplaceStr = "¦http://([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3})/x(.*)&" . $MySite . "¦Ui"; $GetPage = preg_replace( $MyReplaceStr, $MySite."/site/".$site, $GetPage ); I need also to be able to remove the "¦http://([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3}).([0-9]{1,3})/x(.*)&" part from the remaining external links (the ones without $MySite which is just my www.mysite.com domain) that have it. How would I add that onto the script and to avoid conflict how would I exclude the other one within that? I'm sure someone understands. [edited by: Cyrus255 at 9:48 am (utc) on Nov. 8, 2006]

Generating Semi-dynamic Pages?
I set up my index page and a couple of others as semi dynamic pages like he suggested in the advanced php section of his tutorial. Anyway everything was working fine until I put an .htaccess file in that folder, it is just a fairly standard .htaccess that password protects the file, but the trouble is that now when I try to generate a new index page instead of using the path http://localhost/admin/index.php when looking at the template (index.php) which it needs to do for the php on the template to run, it goes to c:/phpdev/www/admin/index.php so as the browser is not used the php is not run and I get a load of code on index.html, I don't think I've explained this that well so I hope the code and comments below help. This is part of the code used basically is uses $srcurl as a source file then puts into a variable and through fwrite etc it puts it all in a temporay file then finally writes it to index.html. <!-- generateindex.php --> <?php $srcurl = "http://localhost/admin/index.php"; $tempfilename = "tempindex.html"; $targetfilename = "index.html"; ?> The problem is that with the .htaccess forcing it to use the path on the harddrive rather than the url none of the PHP from the tempate index.php gets converted.

Dynamic Pages Vs Search Engines
I have a how-to-do-it manual like site, related to fishing. I want to add a new interactive question/comment feature to each instructional page on the site. I want (registered) users to be able to add comments at the bottom of each page, similar to the way the php, mysql, apache manuals work. PUNCHLINE_A: I don't want to revert to a system of dynamic links that look like "pagePainter.php?page_id=123" I did that for a while. But every time I edited the site (reloaded the database) all the page_ids changed, and then voila I had stale links spattered all over my Google search results--because the same page now had a slightly different page_id. To avoid that I could associate each page with a unique lookup string that is its server-side file path: pagePainter.php?page_key=/pages/manual/chapter1/engine_repair/carburetors Then the keys wouldn't change everytime I added a few new pages to the system, and reloaded the database. Then my Google search links would remain constant. PUNCHLINE_B: Will the search engines spider and index links that look like that? Or will I have to make a system that spits out the entire page as static html, each time a registered user adds a new page question or comment? Or should I put the comments box in an iframe, which is also a spidering can of worms?

Cached Pages And Dynamic Content
I am currently building a caching mechanism into my own development framework. Basically whenever a page that is marked in the DB as cacheable is requested the controller creates the cached version of the page and returns it , on subsequent requests the cache is displayed. Whenever a content change is made in the DB the relevant cached page is deleted ready to be rebuilt & cached with the new content on the next page request. Thats fine for many pages , some pages are too dynamic for caching to be useful (shopping carts for example); ................. The issue I am grappling with is ..... A product information page, mostly static and perfect for caching , but lets say the user has something in thier shopping cart I want to also show a 'checkout' now link or change the 'buy now' links to 'add to cart' etc. e.g. some small content will change and so I can't use the existing cache. the choices to date seem to be ...

Dynamic Pages Without With Directory Structure Instead Of Parameters
Sorry for the confusing thread title, I wasn't sure how to call this. This is my issue: I design most of my sites with a single index.php file that takes parameters to decide which pages to include: something like www.blabla.com/index.php?dir=a&page=b which will include some file in say ./a/b.html, but will have all the headers and footers that are defined in index.php. It could also work that way to have a b.php file in the ./a directory that would include headers and footers but then I'd have to include those headers in every single page I write which seems like too much overhead. I was fine with the way I did it but then I read that this is not good practice, search engines don't like sites with parameters they rather want the www.blabla.com/a/b.php form. Is there a way to get this done nicely? How do professional sites solve this?

Caching Dynamic Pages Dependant On User Status
I am new to caching dynamic pages. All I knew was how to avoid caching. My dynamic pages have on top of them an html header which shows the status of the user logged/not logged. I would like to cache the pages and force re-cache if there is a change in the user's status. I guess the must-revalidate has to be always present. I use a last modified date which comes form my database. I think Cache-Control: must-revalidate depends on the last modified date... am I right? Should I change that modified date to the time the user logs off or on? Is it ethical checking the user agent for bots? When dealing with bots should use the real last modified date.

Create Dynamic Return Paths As Links On Site Pages.
I would like to create dynamic return paths as links on site pages. For example, there might be a link to the whet stone page on both the chisel and plane pages. If my viewer came from the plane page, I'd like the return path to indicate "home->planes->whet-stones", appropriately linked. Likewise if from the chisel page, "home->chisels->whet-stones". Above the immediate back link, normal site layout logic would apply. Should the referer page be off site, site layout would rule. This doesn't appear to be particularly difficult.

Typo3: Generate Dynamic Website, Show Only The Pages That Include Content
i want to create a web form where someone can do some input or pick strings from select boxes. after that the person can click a preview button and a website will be generated dynamically. so i thought i should use typo3. first of all i created a html-template. then a page tree with all the sites that could possibly appear. in the end only the sites with content, will be shown. all of this must happen automatically. so i need a php script or a typoscript that compares the "pages" table with the "tt_content" table. after that the attribute "hidden" in the "pages" table should be "true" for the pages that doesn't contain any content. does anyone have an idea if this is possible or if typo3 is the right choice?

Component Strategy?
I have a home grown CMS built in PHP/MySQL (inspired by phpMySite). All management/site building is done through a web interface. Now I want to add functionality such as "check my email", "display rss feed", etc... these different components would then be associated w/ each page. For example, on the home page, show the "check my email" component. I'd really like more advanced user's opinions on how best to implement this. I've thought about storing each PHP component directly in MySQL and then eval() 'ing it on it's way out, but I'm assuming I'm adding alot of process overhead. I could simply create each component as a PHP .inc file in a component directory on the webserver and store meta data about each component in MySQL (i don't really like those loose associations though). The goal is to let the site maintainers (not myself) pick and choose what components they want on what page. I'm not looking for THE answer, I'm just looking for opinions from those with more experience.

Avioding Expired Pages, & Carrying Data Accross Multiple Form Pages
I have a checkout/order form that consists of 6 pages, all PHP. The are linked to one another, like, after the user finishes page 1, they proceed to page 2, etc... The first two pages are submitted by a GET link, so those are not in my question. The next 4 are submitted using a <form>. Throughout all of the pages, i would probably have about 25-30 variables, things that the user has to fill out. I have two questions, 1. What would be the best way for me to keep track of all the data moving throughout the pages, like storing it from page 4, and i still need to access it on page 6. 2. I don't know if anyone could help me here, but does anyone know of a way to code around those ugly "page expired" pages, because of a submitted form. If a user needs to go back, which most likely they will, is there some sort of way for me to skip the expired page?

Custom Error Pages For Web Pages?
A site has the following htaccess commands in it for custom error pages: ErrorDocument 400 /error.php?code=400 ErrorDocument 401 /error.php?code=401 ErrorDocument 403 /error.php?code=403 ErrorDocument 404 /error.php?code=404 ErrorDocument 405 /error.php?code=405 ErrorDocument 500 /error.php?code=500 ErrorDocument 501 /error.php?code=501 ErrorDocument 502 /error.php?code=502 ErrorDocument 503 /error.php?code=503 ErrorDocument 504 /error.php?code=504 So, there is one error page with php code in it. Depending on the error code that Apache sends, it will display the correct error message on the website. However, if I type in http://www.domain.com/fdfdsfsdf.html I will get the error page correctly. However, if I type http://www.domain.com/fdfdsfsdf.php, it does not use the custom page, but using the default apache not found page. Is there something else I need to add to the htaccess file to make php errors use the custom page? I was told by the owner of the hosting company I work at that every time apache sees a .php extension, it automatically assumes it is a script and will not parse the correct error message for it. Does anyone know how to get .php extensions to use the custom error page on an apache server? Is there something else I can add to the htaccess file to facilitate this?
