I'm working with PHP and Microsoft Access database (.mdb).
Until this below code I'm sure this is connected to the .mdb file database.
$db = realpath("att2000.mdb") or die('<b>Connectie met database mislukt</b>');
$conn = new COM("ADODB.Connection");
$conn->Open("DRIVER={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)}; DBQ=$db");
$a = $conn->Execute("SELECT * FROM USERINFO");
\\I need to do while loop on this query data.
Now actually I don't know how to get the data on loop like doing while.
Inside the table USERINFO have column USERID.
So my question, how to show the data on loop using my above code?
Try this:
//your open ..
$sql = "SELECT * FROM USERINFO";
$rs = $conn->Execute($sql);
while (!$rs->EOF) {
foreach($rs->Fields as $field){
echo "Fieldname: ".$field->name." Value: ".$field->value."<br>\n";
}
echo "____<br>";
$rs->MoveNext();
}
$rs->Close();
$conn->Close();

I am writing a application that will read values from an SQlite3 database and display them through webbrowser with PHP. This is new to me and I have tried several things but can't seem to get it to work! The values are listed as REAL in the database, which should be PARAM_STR.
<?php
$db = new SQLite3('/home/pi/ECE522/test.db');
if(!$db) {
echo $db->lastErrorMsg();
} else {
echo "Opened DATABASE!";
$query = $db->prepare('SELECT df1, df2 FROM PLCValues');
$query->bindParm('df1', $df1,PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->bindParm('df2', $df2,PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->execute();
var_dump($df1);
var_dump($df2);
echo $df1;
echo $df2;
}
?>
On the webpage I get "Opened DATABASE!" but nothing else?
Thanks for any ideas!
You don't define the $df1 and $df2 before executing the query, that you bind as param at
$query->bindParm('df1', $df1,PDO::PARAM_STR);
$query->bindParm('df2', $df2,PDO::PARAM_STR);
Do you realy need that?
If you just want to select all values in columns 'df1' and 'df2' from PLCValues table, I think you need something like this:
$res = $db->query("SELECT df1, df2 FROM PLCValues");
while (($row = $res->fetchArray(SQLITE3_ASSOC))) {
var_dump($row);
}
For more information see examples from http://php.net/manual/ru/sqlite3stmt.bindparam.php
If you want to select values with certain df1, I think you need something like this:
$stmt = $db->prepare("SELECT df1, df2 FROM PLCValues WHERE df1=:df1");
$stmt->bindParam(':df1', '[WHAT_YOU_WANT_TO_SELECT]', [YOUR_DATA_TYPE]);
$result = $stmt->execute();
var_dump($result->fetchArray());
I need some help with my PHP. I have a trouble with fetching the data from the database. I have hired a PHP developer who did not do his job properly that he have messed up the code which make it don't work so I need some help to fix the issue to get it working again.
When I try this:
//open the database File
$db = new SQLite3('myChannel.db');
if(!$db)
{
echo $db->lastErrorMsg();
}
else
{
$channel_name = $_GET['channels'];
$sql ="SELECT channel, title, start_date, stop_date, description FROM programs WHERE channel='$channel_name'";
$results = $db->query($sql);
while ($row = $results->fetchArray())
{
print_r($row);
}
What happen with the code is it will not fetching the matched data from the database as it will not do anything. I think there is something wrong with the $sql variable.
What I'm expecting to do is I want to look for data in the database where I use the variable called $channel_name, then I want to fetch the matched data to output them in my PHP.
Can you please help me how I can fetch the matched data in the database?
Try this code based on the SQLite PHP docs
class MyDB extends SQLite3 {
function __construct() {
$this->open('myChannel.db');
}
}
$db = new MyDB();
if (!$db) {
echo $db->lastErrorMsg();
} else {
$channel_name = $_GET['channels'];
$sql = "SELECT channel, title, start_date, stop_date, description FROM programs WHERE channel='{$channel_name}'";
$results = $db->query($sql);
while($row = $results->fetchArray(SQLITE3_ASSOC) ) {
print_r($row);
}
}
I changed a few things. I turned your database connection into a class, and I changed your while to include SQLITE3_ASSOC.
Warning: OP's code and as a result this answer has code that is
vulnerable to SQL Injection!
I'm building a mobile application that requires push notifications to be sent whenever a new post is added.
Here's the PHP notification script: (it should be added inside the loop so it will be used again for each result.
$to = (should get DEVICEID from the database).
$title = "A new request"
sendPush($to,$title,$message);
function sendPush($to,$title,$message){
//Sends noti.
}
So How do I place the above code in a while loop, and get the DEVICEID from the database and place it into $to ?
I suppose that you have an mysql connection set up and that you are using mysqli.
After you have created the connection to the database, you should have a variable holding your connection:
$con = mysqli_connect("localhost","my_user","my_password","my_db");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
So right now you are able to execute a SQL statement to your database. Your SQL statement should look similarily to this:
$sql = "SELECT DeviceID FROM Devices";
Now we can execute the statement we created to the database:
$result = mysqli_execute($con, $sql);
Now we get a result object. We can use this to get a while loop:
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$to = $row["DeviceID"];
// Rest of your code, this will be executed for every DeviceID in the database.
}
If you are using PDO you can read more about it here: http://php.net/manual/en/ref.pdo-mysql.php
But in general, the steps are the same.
Can anyone see what the problem with my code is / where im going wrong?
I know i have the correct host,database,user and password.
This is the code in the php file, it should get all the details available on the players from my sql database, however if i go on the page it just gives me a white page. Im using go daddy as a host and my database is also on there.
Any ideas? thanks
<?php
$host = "abc12345"; //Your database host server
$db = "abc12345"; //Your database name
$user = "abc12345"; //Your database user
$pass = "abc12345"; //Your password
$connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass);
//Check to see if we can connect to the server
if (!$connection) {
die("Database server connection failed.");
} else {
//Attempt to select the database
$dbconnect = mysql_select_db($db, $connection);
//Check to see if we could select the database
if (!$dbconnect) {
die("Unable to connect to the specified database!");
} else {
$query = "SELECT * FROM Player";
$resultset = mysql_query($query);
$records = array();
//Loop through all our records and add them to our array
while ($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultset)) {
$records[] = $r;
}
//Output the data as JSON
echo json_encode($records);
}
}
?>
The script is all right, I checked it with a different query.
Assuming that the table Player is not empty, the error can be either with your raw sql query (as pointed by #Sharikov in comments), otherwise the error is with the way you have configured your godaddy server.
For debugging that, I would suggest inserting dummy print_r or echo statements before you execute the query, and going through your apache logs at /var/log/apache2/access.log.
Also make sure that you don't have any core php package missing on your server (like php5-mysql if you use mysql).
I have done a fair bit of research into what i want to do, although i haven't found anything. I am not too sure if i am looking for the right thing :( I am also a little bit new to PHP and MySQL syntax, so please be kind.
I wish to perform the following in this order:
Connect to a database (DONE)
Query for a specific string (I think im done)
From here is gets a bit fuzzy :(
If a match is found for the variable, copy the whole row (I need other variables).
Assign the values from the SQL query to a PHP variables.
From there i will be right to carry on.
I have established the connection to the database with the following:
function connect() {
$dbname = 'database';
$dbuser = 'username';
$dbpass = 'password';
$dbhost = 'localhost';
mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Unable to connect to database");
}
And then calling the function connect();
I then wish to query the database for a particular value, for the sake of this argument i will use a static value. This is what i have:
mysql_select_db(DATABASENAME) or die( "Unable to select database");
$query = "SELECT * FROM `TABLE` WHERE `COLUMN` LIKE 'VAULE'";
$result=mysql_query($query);
From here i am not too sure how to compare the query result to see if it is a match (something along the lines of mysql rows?).
If there is a match, then i would like to obtain the entire row, and assign each value to a php variable.
I am not asking for you to do it for me, simply i kick in the right direction should be fine!
Hope it explains it enough :)
Thanks for your kind guidance
Ok. You will want to keep the connection to the mysql database somewhere. A common use is $conn.
So you would have
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Unable to connect to database");
Then, either from the URL or Post, or just some variables you have sitting in your php file, you can query the database by putting the variables in the query itself. Also, here you can use $conn so that you have one place to connect to the database, in an include for example, and you won't have to make all of the connection string in each place you need to connect to the DB.
$query = "SELECT * FROM `TABLE` WHERE `COLUMN` LIKE '%" . $varToCompare . "%'";
$result=mysql_query($query,$conn);
Above you are using a like. You may want to just look at doing .. Where column=$var.
Then you can use php to spin through the results into an array (for queries where would get multiple rows).
Where the hell you learned how to use MySQL in PHP ? The mysql_* functions are more then 10 years old and not maintained anymore. Community has already begun to work on deprecating them.
You should be using PDO or MySQLi for that.
// connection to database
$db = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=datadump_pwmgr;charset=UTF-8',
'datadump_pwmgr',
'kzddim05xrgl');
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, false);
// setting up prepared statement for the query
$statement = $db->prepare('SELECT * FROM table WHERE column LIKE :value');
$statement->bindParam(':value', $some_variable, PDO::PARAM_STR, 127);
// executing query and fetching first result
if ( $statement->execute())
{
$data = $statement->fetch(PDO::FETCH_OBJ);
var_dump( $data );
}
This should give you something like what you needed. Though, I would recommend to try this tutorial. And learning more about prepared statements could be useful too.
Also , if you are working with objects, then it is possible to create a single DB connection object , and pass it to multiple other classes to use it:
$pdo = new PDO('sqlite::memory:');
$a = new Foo( $pdo );
$b = new Bar( $pdo, 'something');
This way you pass both objects the same database connection, and you do not need to reinitialize it.
I think you're looking for something like this:
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);
//if there is more then 1 record retrieved from the database
if($count > 0)
{
//Do what ever you want to do here, which I think you want to be
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
echo $row["Columnname1"];
echo $row["Columnname2"];
echo $row["Columnname3"];
}
}
else
{
echo "There are no matches for this specific value";
}
You can get the queried data by rows as an associated array using mysql_fetch_array():
$row = 0;
$data = mysql_query("SELECT name1,name2 FROM ....");
while(($result = mysql_fetch_array($data)) !== false)
{
echo "row = $row, name1 = " . $result["name1"] . ", name2 = " . $result["name2"];
$row ++;
}
... or as an objects using mysql_fetch_object():
$row = 0;
$data = mysql_query("SELECT name1,name2 FROM ....");
while(($result = mysql_fetch_object($data)) !== false)
{
echo "row = $row, name1 = $result->name1, name2 = $result->name2";
$row ++;
}
I'm not too sure of what you want, but I can see one probable bug here: you're using LIKE in a way which means =: in order to have LIKE to behave like a like, you need some joker chars :
"SELECT * FROM `TABLE` WHERE `COLUMN` LIKE 'VAULE'" // This will return all rows where column='VAUL'
"SELECT * FROM `TABLE` WHERE `COLUMN` LIKE '%VAULE%'" // This will return all rows where column='%VAUL%' // This will return any row containing 'VAUL' in column
"SELECT * FROM `TABLE` WHERE `COLUMN` LIKE '%VAULE'" // This will return all rows where column='%VAUL' // this will return all rows ending by VAUL. I guess you get it now :)
An to retrieve the actual results:
$query = "SELECT * FROM `TABLE` WHERE `COLUMN` LIKE '%VAULE%'";
$result=mysql_query($query);
while (false !== ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))) {
//here $row is an array containing all the data from your mysql row
}
Try to write the database connection in another page no need to use function and include that page in where ever you need.
ex: require_once 'dbConnect.php';
dbConnect.php consists:
<?php
$dbname = 'datadump_pwmgr';
$dbuser = 'datadump_pwmgr';
$dbpass = 'kzddim05xrgl';
$dbhost = 'localhost';
mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die("Unable to connect to database");
?>
