[PHP] ID problem

2007-02-28 Thread Delta Storm

Hi,

I'm building an CMS system (for practice and experience :)).

And of course like many times before I have encountered a problem.

The problem is:

I have a index.php that takes the news from the database and publishes 
them. And by the end of every news on index.php I have a link ('a 
href=showfullnews.php?id=$idShow full news/a')


That leads to a page that has the full news.

At the beginning of showfullnews i have a variable ( $id = $_GET['id']; )

And in index.php I have the following code:

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$id= $row['id'];
etc...
}

In the database I have two tables one for a short version of news for 
index.php and another for fullNews.


In full news the query is: select title,newsFull from fullnews where 
id='$id';


In the database i'm 100% sure there is a id = 1 in both rows.

I really dont know what is the problem.

Thank you very much!

ehh, what is the problem? you didn't tell.
I guess that the fullnews page don't display the news correctly, right?
if so, please show us the code of that page

btw, why are you using two tables?
everything could be put in one with fields like title,shorttext,fulltext
and so on...
and then there would be only one id for one article, which could reduce
confusion and eliminate some possible problems

hope that helps

 In the database I have two tables one for a short version of 
I'd suggest just using one table, and when you display the short version
just display a certain number of characters from the full version say 50
first chars as a preview this is what i use:

function debut_texte($texte, $nb_cars) {
$nb_cars = intval($nb_cars);
if (!$nb_cars || !$texte) return($texte);
if (strlen ($texte) = $nb_cars) return($texte);
$nouveau_texte = substr($texte, 0, $nb_cars-3);
$nouveau_texte .= '...';
return ($nouveau_texte);
}

Sorry its in french, essentialy you pass it your text ($texte) and the
number of characters ($nb_cars) of that text you want to and it returns the
$nb_cars first characters and appends ... to the end of the text.. This
will save you some confusion by using two tables for the same data...

 news for index.php and another for fullNews.
 
 In full news the query is: select title,newsFull from 
 fullnews where id='$id';
 
 In the database i'm 100% sure there is a id = 1 in both rows.

Erm me neither.. Need more code to see problem.

Is this possibly a quote issue?

 echo 'a href=showfullnews.php?id=$idShow full news/a';

Will not evaluate $id

Whereas echo 'a href=showfullnews.php?id=' . $id . 'Show full news/a';


Will evaluate $id..

[PHP] ID vs NAME in different browsers

2006-01-28 Thread Niels
Hi,

when making an input field for submission from a form, I need to put a
name='something' in it. For CSS I often use an id='something'. Some
browsers apparently submit the field properly if name is missing and id is
present. Others might not. Can anyone tell me about what browsers do what?

Thanks,
Niels

HTML Forms should always use the NAME attribute to pass values, never ID.
You can use print_r($_REQUEST); at the top of your script to debug.

Thank you for your answer. W3C says:

[http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html]

name = cdata [CI] 
This attribute names the element so that it may be referred to from style
sheets or scripts. Note. This attribute has been included for backwards
compatibility. Applications should use the  id attribute to identify
elements.


So my question remains: How well do browsers support using only id?

Uh, sorry to disappoint, but that's a description of the form element, 
not of the input element or select input.


In fact, if you go to 
http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/interact/forms.html#h-17.4.2 
, you will see that the example form quite clearly uses name.  And for 
the input element, 
http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-html401-19991224/interact/forms.html#h-17.4.2 
says that name assigns the control name.


The attributes for the form element are completely independent of the 
input elements.  (Note, for things like radio buttons, using id makes no 
sense.  You must have multiple elements with the same name.  If you used 
id for these multiple elements, you would be breaking the rules of html 
saying only one element can have a certain id . . .)

[PHP] ID--how to keep them in order

2005-12-19 Thread Anasta
I have a script which outputs a movie title, rating and the ID number 
(below).
The ID number is also used in the admin section as a select for update and 
delete.

The problem i have is that as i delete certain entries then the number 
sequence on the display page has missing numbers--is there a way to move all 
rows down to the next number in the mysql DB so the ID remains there.
The easiest way is to not display the ID in the first place i am guessing, 
but it would be good to know if there is another way.



There are 16 DVDs titles.

Re: [PHP] ID based on position?

2005-09-01 Thread Mark Rees
 Auugh!!  Why would you want to do this? You're flying in the face of
 relational database theory and practice. Position of a record in the table
 is, or should be irrelevant.

Agreed - position is a notional concept. The data is stored physically in
some sort of order, but what order that is is the database's business, not
yours. It could be subject to change when upgrading, and it is very likely
to differ on different platforms or RDBMSs.

You should also be aware that unless you use an order by clause in your
select statement, you don't have a guarantee that all RDBMSs will return the
records in the same row.

I don't know exactly what you want to do, perhaps you can provide more
details?


 What if you have twenty thousand records, or two hundred, and the 45th
 record in the table is deleted? Fetching an ID from anything beyond that
 record, based on the order of insertion (position), is instantly broken.

 Please rethink what you want to do, and if you are not familiar with
 relational databases read some of the excellent tutorials available on the
 'Net about them and their design. It's pretty straightforward, common
sense
 stuff -- but you can back yourself into an awkward corner.

Why don't you use MySQL's LIMIT clause? Example:

SELECT * FROM myTable LIMIT 1,1

will retrieve the second row from myTable. You could combine that with 
WHERE clauses or whatever. Note that the LIMIT syntax is LIMIT 
[rowcount] or LIMIT [offset],[rowcount] and the offset starts at 0.

You could LIMIT your query to the record number you are looking for, and 
grab the last element in the array from your result set. But this is a 
serious hack, and I am really wondering why you need to do what your asking, 
it seems (without knowing more) that you are tackling the problem in the

RE: [PHP] id name when identifying html elements

2003-05-29 Thread Ford, Mike [LSS]
 -Original Message-
 From: Roland Tarver [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Sent: 28 May 2003 10:07
 
 I've got a question about about naming html components (text fields, 
 select boxes etc) when submitting a form to a php page.
 First I tried identifying an element using the id attribute 
 and found 
 that it was not being posted to the php page. When I use the name 
 attribute it did get posted to the page?
 
 I had a look on the w3c html spec and name takes precedence 
 over id 
 if used together but you should be able to use them 
 individually with no 
 problems.
 
 When you submit a form with this select box, country will is not 
 submitted to the php page.
 select *id*=country onChange=alterForm();
 option value=oneone/option
 option value=twotwo/option
 /select
 
 
 When you use this code, it works fine. country  gets 
 submitted to the 
 php page?
 select *name*=country onChange=alterForm();
 option value=oneone/option
 option value=twotwo/option
 /select
 
 Any thoughts?

This is according to the HTML 4.01 specification, which says:

   When a form is submitted for processing, [...] controls have
their name paired with their current value and these pairs
are submitted with the form.

This also applies to XHTML 1.0 -- indeed, the XHTML 1.0 Strict DTD says that the name= 
attribute is *required* for all input  types except submit and reset.

None of this is likely to change in the foreseeable future -- name= will always be the 
one to use for submitted form elements.

The id= attribute is for identifying a particular element uniquely within the [X]HTML 
document -- no two elements can have the same id= attribute.  Its most likely uses are 
for specifically targeted stylesheet formatting, or manipulating a specific element 
using a client-side technology such as JavaScript.  It is absolutely *not* a 
substitute for name= in form elements. 

Hope this clears things up a bit for you.

Cheers!

[PHP] id name when identifying html elements

2003-05-28 Thread Roland Tarver
Hi

I've got a question about about naming html components (text fields, 
select boxes etc) when submitting a form to a php page.
First I tried identifying an element using the id attribute and found 
that it was not being posted to the php page. When I use the name 
attribute it did get posted to the page?

I had a look on the w3c html spec and name takes precedence over id 
if used together but you should be able to use them individually with no 
problems.

When you submit a form with this select box, country will is not 
submitted to the php page.
select *id*=country onChange=alterForm();
option value=oneone/option
option value=twotwo/option
/select

When you use this code, it works fine. country  gets submitted to the 
php page?
select *name*=country onChange=alterForm();
option value=oneone/option
option value=twotwo/option
/select

Any thoughts?
best wishes

Re: [PHP] id name when identifying html elements

2003-05-28 Thread Jason k Larson
PHP uses only the 'name' attribute of an element to assign the variable to.

You can use 'id' and 'name' together, but the two are different, for instance no two form 
elements should have the same 'id', but depending on multiform pages with similar inputs, 
an identical 'name' attribute could be used several times without conflict.

For PHP use, you have to use the 'name' attribute, but you've already figured that out.

[PHP] ID NUMBER HELP

2002-03-26 Thread Omland Christopher m

Can someone help me with this. I'm trying to get ?id= set to the id number
of the name in the database. I can get ?id=THE NAME but I can't get it
to pick up the id number. here is the code im trying:
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{

 printf(a href=\%s?id=%s\%s/abr\n, $PHP_SELF,
$row[ID], $row[Name], $row[Name]);
}

If I change the first $row[ID] to $row[Name] then ?id=Name here but
then when I try to extract the information from the database using:

$result = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM Profiles WHERE id=$id, $dbcnx);
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);

It won't work, but in the address bar if I manually change ?id=1 then the
information will load fine. Can anyone help?
Thanks.
-Chris

2002-03-26 Thread Demitrious S. Kelly

Try echo 'a
href='.$PHP_SELF.'?id='.$row[ID].''.row[name].'/a';

if $row[id] still isn't shown, then you most likely aren't getting the
right data from the database to the correct variable...

This post gave me an idea -- is it possible to write a quick mini-script 
that would allow me to see the contents of all cookies stored in my 
browser in a web page?  I know that technically I could just open up the 
browser's prefs and look at them this way, but I could format the cookie 
list/contents better with a script, and it wouldn't require me clicking 
all over my preferences (I have a lot of cookies too).

Just a thought.

[PHP] ID variable alsways set

2002-03-03 Thread Chris N

Ive just found a rather weird bug that im experiencing Im running PHP 412
with Apache 1323 on Linux Redhat 7 When ever I try and use variable $id
it always has a value of 1 no matter what It only does it if its in a get,
think a post too I can hard code it in a script and itll have a correct
value but in a GET it gets messed up Ive tried running it several ways of
having it be first in the list or last, no matter what its always 1

Example:
url = http://wwwdomaincom/testphp?id=12345name=Kalamazoo

File :
?php
echo name = $namebr;
echo id = $idbr;
echo a href=\$PHP_SELF?id=12345name=Kalamazoo\click/a;
?

Result :
name = Kalamazoo
id = 1
click ( http://wwwdomaincom/testphp?id=12345name=Kalamazoo )

Anyone have any ideas what this could come from?

Um... Search for it.

$findit = mysql_query("Select username from usertable where username =
'$inputted_username'");
If (mysql_num_rows($findit)) {
echo "Error! username exists";
}

Or whatever code you want to add there.

Re: [PHP] ID value

2001-01-31 Thread Piotr Duszynski

  $sql = "INSERT INTO songs (id,name,url) VALUES
 ('','Foobar','test.php?id=id)";
 
 The id is autoincrement so obviously left blank, yet I'd like to put it into
 the url where id is.
 
 How do I go about dragging back the id even though it is being created (I
 suppose) while the statement is being made -- is it possible or do I have to

Try this:
 
mysql_db_query("
INSERT INTO songs (id,name,url) 
VALUE ('','Foobar','')
";
mysql_db_query($sql);
$id=mysql_insert_id($link);
mysql_db_query=("
UPDATE songs 
SET (url='test.php?id=$id') 
WHERE id=$id
";

This should work but notice that you have to do 2 SQL queries and this
could slow down executing your script if there is some loop.

[PHP] ID value

2001-01-23 Thread Robert Morrissey

Hi,

I wonder whether anyone can shed some light onto this for me...

Say I have this example insert:

 $sql = "INSERT INTO songs (id,name,url) VALUES
('','Foobar','test.php?id=id)";

The id is autoincrement so obviously left blank, yet I'd like to put it into
the url where id is.

How do I go about dragging back the id even though it is being created (I
suppose) while the statement is being made -- is it possible or do I have to
do something hackish?

Sorry if that's a simple problem...

Regards,

Robert Morrissey

If you are using mysql as your database, you can use mysql_insert_id.

See http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-insert-id.php for more info
