Pull Data From Database And Show It In Forms


I have created an online survey form for my boss about one of his course. He needs his students to do the evaluation for a topic when he finishes each topic. For example, when he finished topic 1, he told students to evaluate topic 1.

Two weeks later, when he finished topic 2, he asked the students to evaluate topic 2, so on. I created the survey form with radio buttons and I would like each student can keep his own record for the previous topic. For example, when it is time to do the evaluation for topic 2, when he opens the survey form, he can see his reply for topic 1. Code:

Pull Data From MySQL Database
I'm running a PHP script called phpOnDirectory on thsi website i'm creating so that people can have their companies listed in our directory. Currently, the script displayes the directory in a left-hand column, and the results in the center column.

When you access a category, the script displays the number of listings withing that category in parenthesis next to the title. What my client wants is to take that out(easy enough) and have the totals listed next to the categories on the left. Code:

Pull Data From The Database And Generate A Normal Text File
I have a database that is correctly storing characters like the trademark symbol, copyright,ect. I then pull data from the database and generate a normal text file from it. I do not do anything other then echoing out the direct database info into a variable and then building the file from the variable.

When I open the text file, ALL my trademarks, copyright, apostrophies, anything other then alphanumeric becomes question marks. "?" I have no idea how to fix this. Can anyone lead me in the right direction on what needs to be done to fix this. The database charset is 8859-1 I beleive, and my html pages are also 8859-1 and also render the data wrong, same "?"

How To Show Directory Of Forms On A Server
I need to have users be able to see a directory tree of some forms in specific folders on a server.  The end-goal is to allow a forms admin to upload forms and have them immediately available for the user to open and download/print.  The forms are mostly PDF but a few are XLS.

Currently, I have manually uploaded the forms and kept a MySQL Database of forms names and their HTTP address - while this works, it is way too time-consuming to update forms and the DB.

Is there a better way to do this with PHP (or any other method)?

I am making a database using mysql where i have 2 tables, one for car manufacturers and one for car models.I've already done that. I have made a php page where i have 2 drop down menus.

The first menu shows car makers(manufacturers) and the 2nd nothing. Now when a user opens the 1st menu and selects a maker , the 2nd automatically fills up with models from that car maker only and it gets its information from the database.That is every time i decide to add a new model to my database the 2nd menu (if selected) must go and search the database for all the models for that maker and show them.

Script To Pull Data From SQL Table
I'm running a php-enabled dedicated server. All my sites on said server incorporate simple php scripts (includes, month/date, etc.) and that's the extent of my php knowledge.

Some of my sites have SQL databases which I administer via phpmyadmin, but I've been unable to track down a simple php script to:

* open the database
* refer to a specific table
* extract data from the table
* display the data on a website

Can anyone point me to an online doc or provide a simple script to follow which I can customize for my purposes?

How To Pull Only Unique Items From Database?
I have a table like this: date, author, title, content

now I want to grab the 3 latest items from this table from 3 DIFFERENT authors.

I want this:
-article by jim
-article by sally
-article by john

Not this:
-article by jim
-article by jim
-article by sally

even if the two latest articles happen to be by jim, lets only grab the first one and move on.

So basically I need (in pseudo-sql/plaintext):
select title from contenttable where author=unique order by date limit 3

I've got everything code-wise except the "author=unique" part, how do I do that?

Pull From Multiple Database Tables
In table one is a list of names,

name_1,
name_2,
name_3,
...

In the second table their are photos related to each name. Some names have multiple photos, some names have none. The correct photo for each name will be marked as "selected". So for example,

SELECT photo_name FROM $table2 WHERE name = 'name_1' AND photo = 'selected'

What I want to do is create a page listing 50 names and each name will have the selected picture next to it if it exists, but the only way I know how to approach this would be to run a query on table 1 once and 50 queries on table 2.


$result = mysql_query( "SELECT name FROM $table1" );
while( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) ) {

$query = "SELECT photo_name FROM $table2 WHERE name = 'name_1' AND photo = 'selected'";
...

}

This seems highly inneficient and I know their has to be a better way to approach this. Any help or links to a good tutorial.

Using A Loop To Pull Data From Mysql Recordset
This has set me back a couple of days now and I could really use some
help or at least a shove in the right direction.

What I'm trying to do is list reviews in a database on a page, by
artist (byartist.php). The first step is pulling each artist and
listing them alphabetically. If the artist has more than one album
reviewed, they should still only show up once, so I need to check each
row of the recordset, and check the artistname against a variable or
something, and if it exists, to just skip it and move on to the next row.
Then I need to list the albums reviewed under each respective artists
name and use them as links with url parameters to the respective review
pages.

I've got the recordset down per some advice from another newsgroup, and
I'm fairly certain its correct for what I need to do.
<?php require_once('conntest.php'); ?>
<?php
mysql_select_db($database_test, $test);
$query_byartist = "select artists.artistid, artists.artistname,
areviews.albumid, areviews.atitle from artists join areviews on
artists.artistid = areviews.artistid";
$byartist = mysql_query($query_byartist, $test) or die(mysql_error());
$row_byartist = mysql_fetch_assoc($byartist);
$totalRows_byartist = mysql_num_rows($byartist);
?>

The php example I was given for pulling the results was kind of
half-effort and not enough for me to really see what was going on,
understand it and build upon it. I'm (obviously) just starting out with
php/mysql and I'm pretty good at building upon something in front of me
and figuring it out, just need a little help because I've tried it over
and over and to no avail, I wind up with syntax errors.
Sorry for the wordy post, I didnt want to skimp. Thanks for any help or
advice or any points in the right direction. I've got about 3 days of
progress to catch up on

Using The Mysql_fetch_array Function To Pull Data In As An Array.
Im currently pulling in a load of data from my sql table. I found that using the mysql_fetch_array function was the way to pull it all in as an array.

The only problem? I cant manage to get it to store a value into another name eg $ip = $row['ip'] and count how many instance's are contained within it. I need to do similar things to the 'url' and the 'time' but as I cant access the data there isnt much I can do!

How To Pull 1 Line Of Data From A File? NO MYSQL
I have this file that has 2 lines in it. Heres how the files looks.

file: fbddata.lbn

line1:uncle1234562
line2:

As you can see, on line 2 there is actually no data but the file still seems to have a 2 lines. But when I pull the info from the file using the "include" or "require" command it just pulls the 1st line of data. BUT..when I try to use the "include" or "require" php commend within a HTML link code like this....

<a herf="www.mysite.com/Lavishphpfreak/<?php include("fbddata.lbn" ?>/ilovephp.php>LINK[/url]

it gives me a link that this...

http://www.mysite.com/Lavishphpfreak/uncle1234562
/ilovephp.php

now did you notice the code that was added to the link. I have figured out that its doing this because of the blank line 2 thats in the fbddata.lbn im trying to pull the data from. Of course the easy way to fix this would be to just go into the file and delete the blank like 2 but i can't do this because i dont have permission to edit the file. Its created using "root".

So does anyone know of a php code that will just pull the 1st line of data from within a file. I can't use mysql cause this is NOT in a database..and plus I haven't advanced to databases yet.

Mysql_Fetch_array(); Pull An Array Of Data From Mysql
im trying to pull an array of data from mysql. this is the code im using. PHP Code:

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query))

Is there a way in PHP to have a phone number extracted out of the pasted data and populated into it's own field in the database when the form is submitted? 

The format of the phone number will be (xxx)xxx-xxxx . My goal is to have a table with a phone number and details (the pasted data). Would it also be possible to have the first name, last name, and phone number all automatically picked out of the text area on submission? There are two instances of both first and last name. We would want to only pull the first instance of first name and last name.
