Hello all,
I am having trouble trying to figure out how I should compose this loop to
give me ALL the results I want.
Below are my queries. I am querying two different databases to pull in
records that match the requested $id. I am then putting the result into a
$variable and also counting the number of rows returned. These queries work
just fine and pull in all of the data that I want...and by viewing the
print_r() I have verified that all the information was returned.
?php
$get_cs = SELECT DISTINCT
request_type, card_id, first_name, last_name
FROM
support_payment_request
WHERE
card_id = '$id';
$cs_type = mssql_query($get_cs) or die(mssql_get_last_message());
$cs_num = mssql_num_rows($cs_type);
if($cs_num 0) {
while ($cs_row = mssql_fetch_array($cs_type)) {
$cs_type2 = $cs_row['request_type'];
$cs_first = $cs_row['first_name'];
$cs_last = $cs_row['last_name'];
$cs_name = $cs_first. .$cs_last;
print_r ($cs_row);
}
}
$get_tr = SELECT DISTINCT
request_type, card_id, first_name, last_name
FROM
payment_request
WHERE
card_id = '$id';
$tr_type = mssql_query($get_tr) or die(mssql_get_last_message());
$tr_num = mssql_num_rows($tr_type);
if($tr_num 0) {
while ($tr_row = mssql_fetch_array($tr_type)) {
$tr_type2 = $tr_row['request_type'];
$tr_first = $tr_row['first_name'];
$tr_last = $tr_row['last_name'];
$tr_name = $tr_first. .$tr_last;
print_r ($tr_row);
}
}
$num_total = $cs_num + $tr_num;
$multiple = MULTIPLE;
?
Here is where I am running into problems. First I am writing an if ()
statement to see if there were any rows returned from the queries. If a row
was returned I am echoing out the data that was assigned to the different
variables above. This works...kind of...
td width='89' height='13' align='center' class='tblcell'div
align='center'?php echo a href='javascript:editRecord($id)'$id/a;
?/div/td
td width='172' height='13' align='center' class='tblcell'div
align='center'?php if ($cs_num 0) { echo $cs_namebr /\n; }
if ($tr_num 0) { echo $tr_namebr /\n;
} ?/div/td
td width='201' height='13' align='center' class='tblcell'div
align='center'?php echo $dateTime; ?/div/td
td width='158' height='13' align='center' class='tblcell'div
align='center'?php if ($num_total 1) { echo $multiple; }
if ($num_total == 1 $cs_num == 1) { echo $cs_type2;
}
if ($num_total == 1 $tr_num == 1) { echo $tr_type2;
} ?/div/td
td width='160' height='13' align='center' class='tblcell'div
align='center'?php echo $last_processed_by; ?/div/td
If a single row was returned by the query, all of the information echos out
just fine. BUT, If one of the queries returned more than one row, the
information that is echo'd out is only the LAST row's information. For
example, the result of my $cs_type query returns 3 names: John Smith, Jane
Smith, James Smith. The only information being populated to my table is
James Smith. Because of this I think I need to put a loop where the echo
$cs_namebr /\n; is so it will loop through all of the returned names and
show them all. I have tried a for, foreach and while loop but I just can't
seem to wrap my fingers around the right way to use it.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
What about something like this?
?php
$records = array();
$SQL = SELECT DISTINCT request_type,
card_id,
first_name,
last_name
FROMsupport_payment_request
WHERE card_id = '$id';
$cs_type = mssql_query($SQL) or die(mssql_get_last_message());
if ( $cs_type ) {
while ($records[] = $record = mssql_fetch_array($cs_type)) {
print_r ($record);
}
}
$SQL = SELECT DISTINCT request_type,
card_id,
first_name,
last_name

[PHP] Looking for a navigation recommendation
Hi all: I'm working on a project wherein I need to be able to navigate to previous and next sections of data. I'm wondering what the best way to code for this would be. When I enter the page, I'd like it to use something in the MySQL SELECT such as LIMIT 0,25, but the 0 portion needs to change with the appropriate selections of Next or Prev. I thought that setting Next or Prev as an anchor back to the same page would let me pass along data, but it doesn't seem to be happening, at least, not in the $_POST variables. Any suggestions for me? Or maybe a recommendation for a similar page I could view and learn from? Thanks so much for any help you can send my way. Jon

Re: [PHP] Looking for a navigation recommendation (SOLVED)
Hi Tedd: YES! Exactly! Something like that would be very nice to have. MUCH appreciated! Jon Jon: Here it is: http://webbytedd.com/bbb/paging I'm assuming that you know how to establish communication with your database; how to set up your database; and how to use css and the images as shown there. If you get in trouble, I'm available for hire. :-) tedd Thanks for the code sample. It pointed me in exactly the right direction to solve what I was trying to accomplish.

Are you really a sysadmin? or are you just a worker in an IT firm? Have you signed a contract? or are you anyway just the cleaner there? I am not sure what are you trying to do here. Is this a list about php? It seems to me that you are from the http://veryevil.org site? How many systems have you already hacked? How many systems have you already damaged? Are you proud of that? Go to my website (easy to find it out which one, right?) There you will find the bank account number and the bank name. Good Luck! I wish you a happy jail term!!! NO answer please. PLEASE no answer! Please go back to your room and think at least ten times what you actually told us now about yourself! Wow. Look everyone, he knows how to look up the owner of an IP address.

I found in the meantime some code to play with. I also found a tutorial I followed, but it was only to pull some web sites. The challenge is to select so many things on the following pages. As I mentioned above I would strongly recommend that you do not store your authentication credentials anywhere. If you need this to be an automated system don't bother - it's not worth the risk. That is the point I do not understand. Where is the risk? The bank information is stored on the customers web site anyway, in order that their user can pay. The only thing what is not there is the login information. I believe if we can use the out of the path credentials like we access the sql server it should be same secure. The bank does not allow transactions, it is only for viewing the last 100 days transactions. Oh, and don't underestimate the damage that can be caused by someone gaining access to this account. Just because you can't carry out transactions through the site doesn't mean the information it gives you access to can't be used for evil purposes. One last thing... you may find yourself getting blocked from the banks site if you make too many failed requests. You may want to pick another site while you learn how curl works. Well, I will not try more than 3 times in a row with curl and than with the browser.

php|architect's Zend PHP 5 Certification Study Guidehttp://www.amazon.com/architects-Zend-Certification-Study-Guide/dp/0973862149 is solid; even for people whove programmed in php for a little while. i learned a few things in there. its a great starting point; and not too long either. -nathan On Nov 17, 2007 8:34 PM, joychen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: thank you ,i will buy them!
