noob problem: i have some issues with a loop in php...here is the code (i used the same methodology for other pages and it works); the code it is supposed to display the names of the products from a order, it works, but it is not showing the very first product , i don't know why :
<?php $i=1; while($row_selectOrderItems = mysqli_fetch_array($result_selectOrderItems)){ ?>
<tr>
<td> <?php echo $i; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo $row_selectOrderItems['pro_name']; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo $row_selectOrderItems['pro_price']; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo $row_selectOrderItems['q']; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo $row_selectOrderItems['q']*$row_selectOrderItems['pro_price']; ?> </td>
</tr>
<?php $i++; } ?>
and here is the code where i used mysqli_fetch_array before the loop
$query_selectOrderItems = "SELECT *,order_items.quantity AS q FROM orders,order_items,products WHERE order_items.order_id='$order_id' AND order_items.pro_id=products.pro_id AND order_items.order_id=orders.order_id";
$result_selectOrderItems = mysqli_query($con,$query_selectOrderItems);
$row_selectOrderItems=mysqli_fetch_array($result_selectOrderItems);
Does anyone have any idea how should i modify this code? Thank you!
You're reading and ignoring the first record in the results. Consider how your loop works:
while($row_selectOrderItems = mysqli_fetch_array($result_selectOrderItems))
Each iteration calls mysqli_fetch_array, stores the record in $row_selectOrderItems, then uses that to display the record. Then consider what you do before the loop:
$row_selectOrderItems = mysqli_fetch_array($result_selectOrderItems);
You're doing exactly that same thing, but not displaying that first record.
Simply remove that first call to mysqli_fetch_array before the loop.
$row_selectOrderItems=mysqli_fetch_array($result_selectOrderItems);
remove this line, so that, it will not read the 1st result at starting.
Now, when you use it in the while loop, it reads the first line
may be you used mysqli_fetch_array($result_selectOrderItems) before this for loop.

Thank you for any assistance that you may offer with this...
I'm creating a page with a bunch of weather reports from various weather instruments. The issue that I'm having is that sometimes these instruments do not send the certain pieces of data, for various reasons. I'm using a foreach loop to display all of the weather conditions...but if a station didn't submit, for example a wind gust value, then I get a warning within the list. Obviously, I would rather have the list just say "no data" or something...rather than the big red warning box.
Here is the code that I've been working on...
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<th>Site</th>
<th>Temperature°F</th>
<th>Dew Point°F</th>
<th>Humidity%</th>
<th>Wind Direction</th>
<th>Wind Speed MPH</th>
<th>Wind Gust MPH</th>
<th>Pressure (mb)</th>
</tr>
<?php foreach($data->STATION as $site): ?>
<tr>
<td> <?php echo($site->NAME); ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->air_temp_value_1)->value; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->dew_point_temperature_value_1d)->value; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->relative_humidity_value_1)->value; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->wind_cardinal_direction_value_1d)->value; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->wind_speed_value_1)->value; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->wind_gust_value_1)->value; ?> </td>
<td> <?php echo($site->OBSERVATIONS->sea_level_pressure_value_1d)->value; ?> </td>
</tr>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</tbody>
</table>
These all come from JSON data from an API. The issue is that if a new observation from weather instrument does not send a wind gust value...then there is nothing in the JSON data for that variable. But, my code is still searching for it in the JSON data. Therefore, I get the warning:
Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$wind_gust_value_1 in C:\wamp64\www\mesowesttable.php on line 48
Is there some way to have the table populated with "No data" rather than getting the warning? Some type of "if/then" statement?
Thank you all,
Justin
you can check if is value set for that variable:
$wind_gust_value = isset($site->OBSERVATIONS->wind_gust_value_1->value) ? $site->OBSERVATIONS->wind_gust_value_1->value : 'empty';
echo $wind_gust_value;
or first initialize with some data
You could use PHPs null coalescing operator (??) to check if the value is set or not.
<?php echo $site->OBSERVATIONS->wind_gust_value_1->value ?? 'no data'; ?>
I Need to show three records of MySql table in three different column using php.My Query is
SELECT * FROM TABLE1 WHERE Id IN(1,2,3)
I want to show the result as here
How can i Write LOOP for it?like
while(loop condition)
{
//what will go here?
}
UPDATE: First row fields will show in first column of html table and second record fields will display in second column and so on...I am not asking only show three records
OP saying, it's not so simple. But it is.
So, you have 2 ways to do it.
First. In this case, you are loop through on the 3 columns. Fetch the first row. This put all the data into a div. Class name is column_1. Do it for the other 3. Then floating the divs to left to each other.
$i = 1;
while($row = $db->fetch_row()) {
?>
<div class="column_<?php echo $i; ?>">
<div class="picture">
<?php echo $row["image"]; ?>
</div>
<div class="description">
<?php echo $row["desc"]; ?>
</div>
... and so on...
</div>
<?php
$i++;
}
Second one, when you first collect the data about 3 rows, and then put them into a table rows by row.
<?php
while($row = $db->fetch_row()) {
$results[] = $row;
}
?>
<table>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $result[0]['image'] ?></td>
<td><?php echo $result[1]['image'] ?></td>
<td><?php echo $result[2]['image'] ?></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $result[0]['desc'] ?></td>
<td><?php echo $result[1]['desc'] ?></td>
<td><?php echo $result[2]['desc'] ?></td>
</tr>
</table>
EDIT
I forgot that, there is a third solution. You can just build the table empty, and then you can update the cells with an ajax call with jQuery.
One way of looping through them is foreach()
assuming you have your results in $results array:
foreach($results as $result) {
//create your table
$result['id']; //has the item id
$result['title']; //has item title
//and so on...
}

To provide a answer to your comment you must understand how HTML tables work...
<tr> = table row
<td> = table data
You are asking for an entire source code, and this is NOT that place, we don't do your job for you, but if you want, you will have to pay me :) and I am not sure that you agree with this :)
HERE is a good and easy to understand tutorial on HTML tables.
while ($data=mysql_fetch_array($rs)) {
}
Idea:
I want to do a print layout, my solution is by absolute div's. to fill it, i use php.
On every page is a table. On one page is enough space for 10 rows.
So i do the following code to prevent more than 10 rows on a page, the rest gets ignored (im solving this later by a message).
here is the code:
<table>
<?php $i=1;
while($info5=mysqli_fetch_array($data5)): ?>
<?php while($i <'10'):?>
<tr>
<td width="50px"><?php echo $i; ?></td>
<td> foo </td>
<td> bar </td>
</tr>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php $i++; endwhile; ?>
Unfortunately this code causes firefox, chrome and IE to break. The site starts loading, and then freezes, ending up in a "send crash report".
Why?
$i++;
Should be inside the inner while, otherwise $i always remains 1 and that generates an endless loop and that is what causes your page to crash.
Like this
<?php $i++;?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
You can see that I have a 3 element array. I am using a while loop to then print out all 3 values into a table, one row for each of the three values, but I do not understand how three rows are being printed out when I only have one row hard coded using html code. The PHP while loop does not echo the tr and td tags for each row because those row and detail tags are outside the PHP code. The code works -- it prints out one additional new table row for each value of "mary","donna","shirley", but I do not understand how. I could see it working if the tr and td tags were output by a PHP echo statement inside the while loop, but that is not the case here.
<html>
<body>
<table cellspacing ="2" cellpadding ="2" align ="center" border="8">
<?php
$ar1=["mary","donna","shirley"];
$len=count($ar1);
$ct=0;
?>
<?php while ( $ct<$len) { ?>
<tr>
<td>
<?php echo $ar1[$ct];
$ct++;
?>
</td>
</tr>
<?php } //end while loop?>
</table>
</body>
</html>
I believe the answer lies in the fact that HTML is an interpreted language not a compiled language.
So in this case your php while loop is setting the browser back to the spot just before your first tr tag so it goes through and interprets those tags again, and as it does this it puts them to the page again. Doing your while loop like this is a cheap way to do echos essentially.
I'm not a PHP master by any means, but from my understanding of how HTML is read and how PHP works this is my answer.
Your <tr> tag is inside the while loop. If you want just one row, try this-
<html>
<body>
<table cellspacing ="2" cellpadding ="2" align ="center" border="8">
<?php
$ar1=["mary","donna","shirley"];
$len=count($ar1);
$ct=0;
?>
<tr>
<?php while ( $ct<$len) { ?>
<td>
<?php echo $ar1[$ct];
$ct++;
?>
</td>
<?php } //end while loop?>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
</html>
This piece of code:
<?php while ( $ct<$len) { ?>
<tr>
<td>
<?php echo $ar1[$ct];
$ct++;
?>
</td>
</tr>
<?php } //end while loop?>
is the same as
<?php while ( $ct<$len) {
echo "<tr>
<td>";
echo $ar1[$ct];
$ct++;
echo "</td>
</tr>";
} //end while loop?>
if you analyze code more deeply..u will understand it yourself..you said "The php while loop does not echo the tr and td tags for each row because those row and detail tags are outside the php code"
but it does ..the html code is not the part of php code it coded outside php scope...and whenever your while loop executes it again reads the tr and tg tag and insert row and hence u get three rows printed ...
It's an easy case of PHP basic capabilities.
See http://php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.phpmode.php
Everything outside of a pair of opening and closing tags is ignored by the PHP parser which allows PHP files to have mixed content.
PHP parser, don't need to know what is inside the While Loop, it just repeat to the output.
In a php file, by escaping the php code (by way of ?> you basicly say to the script, now comes something non php, you provide Html tags which are then interpreted by the browser as html code. But because you're still in the loop (you haven't ended it by adding an closing tag } you repeat the exit from the code, presenting html, and then entering the code again.
Some coders prefer to just exit php code and to show some html code with a few php tags here and there when there's a large amount of html being displayed. It's a lot less typing than continually using echo statements.
I have a pretty simple question, but for some reason I am drawing a blank. I have the following code in my view file, and I want to display the results in a two column table, so the first entry would be on the left, the next would be on the right then the next one after that would be below the first row, and eventually I will use the pagination class (haven’t gotten that far yet) For some reason I can not figure out how to get the results to display in a 2 column format… only one. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Ideally I would like to have 4 columns, but the code below was started with just the idea of 2 columns.
Thanks!
<table>
db->query($sql);
foreach ($query->result() as $row)
{
echo("");
echo("");
echo $row->Title;
echo ("<br/>");
?>
<img name="<?php echo $row->Thumb;?>" src="../uploaded/portfolio/thumbs/<?php echo $row->Thumb;?>" alt="">
<?php
echo("<br/>");
echo $row->DescText;
echo("</td>");
echo("<td>");
// Display next picture here
echo("</td>");
echo("</tr>");
}
?>
../
Your code example is rather confusing, but I think from your description that you're trying to do something like this:
<table>
<tr>
<?php $i = 0; foreach($query->result() as $row): ?>
<?php if ($i % 2 == 0): ?>
</tr><tr>
<?php endif; ?>
<td>
<?php //whatever you want to put in your column goes here; ?>
</td>
<?php $i++; endforeach; ?>
</tr>
</table>
If you want the table to be four rows across, just change the "if ($i % 2 == 0)" to "if ($i % 4 == 0)".
