Passing a select value to Oracle database - php

I'm working on this code I used Oracle HR database as my database, I'm trying to filter database results based on multiple select, but I keep getting this error:
Warning: oci_execute(): ORA-00933
Warning: oci_fetch_array(): ORA-24374
and no results, my code:
index.php
<html>
<head>
<title>Employees Search</title>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function checkinput()
{
if(document.Form2.DEPARTMENT_ID.value=="" && document.Form2.MANAGER_ID.value=="")
{
alert("Please select department or manager!");
return;
}
document.Form2.submit();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="get" name="Form2" id="Form2">
<select id="DEPARTMENT_ID" name="DEPARTMENT_ID">
<option value="">DEPARTMENT:</option>
<option value="90">90</option>
<option value="60">60</option>
<option value="100">100</option>
<option value="30">30</option>
</select>
<select id="MANAGER_ID" name="MANAGER_ID" >

<?php
$conn = oci_connect('hr', ' ', 'My-PC:1521/XE');
if (!$conn) {
$e = oci_error();
trigger_error(htmlentities($e['message'], ENT_QUOTES), E_USER_ERROR);
}
if(isset($_GET['DEPARTMENT_ID'])||isset($_GET['MANAGER_ID'])){
$DEPARTMENT_ID=$_GET['DEPARTMENT_ID'];
$MANAGER_ID=$_GET['MANAGER_ID'];
$sql="SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE ";
if($DEPARTMENT_ID != "")
{
$sql = $sql."DEPARTMENT_ID=".$DEPARTMENT_ID;
if($MANAGER_ID != "")
{
$sql = $sql."MANAGER_ID=".$MANAGER_ID;
}
}
else
{
if($MANAGER_ID != "")
{
$sql = $sql."MANAGER_ID=".$MANAGER_ID;
}
}
$stid = oci_parse($conn, $sql);
oci_execute($stid);
echo " <table><tr><th>Employee No.</th><th>First Name</th><th>Last Name</th><th>PHONE NUMBER</th><th>Email</th><th>Job Title</th><th>MANAGER_ID</th><th>DEPARTMENT_ID</th></tr>";
while ($row = oci_fetch_array($stid, OCI_ASSOC )) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>".$row['EMPLOYEE_ID']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['FIRST_NAME']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['LAST_NAME']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['PHONE_NUMBER']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['EMAIL']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['JOB_ID']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['MANAGER_ID']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['DEPARTMENT_ID']."</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo"</table>";
}
}
?>

Everything seems correct expect SQL when Department and manager id is not null.
<?php
$conn = oci_connect('hr', ' ', 'My-PC:1521/XE');
if (!$conn) {
$e = oci_error();
trigger_error(htmlentities($e['message'], ENT_QUOTES), E_USER_ERROR);
}
if(isset($_GET['DEPARTMENT_ID'])||isset($_GET['MANAGER_ID'])){
$DEPARTMENT_ID=$_GET['DEPARTMENT_ID'];
$MANAGER_ID=$_GET['MANAGER_ID'];
$sql="SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE ";
if($DEPARTMENT_ID != "")
{
$sql = $sql."DEPARTMENT_ID=".$DEPARTMENT_ID;
if($MANAGER_ID != "")
{
$sql = $sql."AND MANAGER_ID=".$MANAGER_ID;
}
}
else
{
if($MANAGER_ID != "")
{
$sql = $sql."MANAGER_ID=".$MANAGER_ID;
}
}
$stid = oci_parse($conn, $sql);
oci_execute($stid);
echo " <table><tr><th>Employee No.</th><th>First Name</th><th>Last Name</th><th>PHONE NUMBER</th><th>Email</th><th>Job Title</th><th>MANAGER_ID</th><th>DEPARTMENT_ID</th></tr>";
while ($row = oci_fetch_array($stid, OCI_ASSOC )) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>".$row['EMPLOYEE_ID']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['FIRST_NAME']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['LAST_NAME']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['PHONE_NUMBER']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['EMAIL']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['JOB_ID']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['MANAGER_ID']."</td>";
echo "<td>".$row['DEPARTMENT_ID']."</td>";
echo "</tr>";
echo"</table>";
}
}
?>
Changed Line :
$sql = $sql."AND MANAGER_ID=".$MANAGER_ID;
May be reason as SQL failed to parse this query.
As If both are not empty and assumed 10 then you query will be looked like SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE DEPARTMENT_ID=10 MANAGER_ID=10; which is not syntactically correct.

Dynamic table using Bootstrap3 is not working properly.

Table sorting and searching text filed is not working properly using bootstrap 3. I am basically developing a query builder and making a dynamic table of my data but table sorting and searching is not working properly. Data display accurately but the table sort and search text box do not display data.

Your code uses relative links. Don't do that. Use Absolute links!
<script src="jquery-3.3.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Depending which folder this script is in, it will look from there, and not the site root.
However, changing it to
<script src="/path/to/jquery-3.3.1.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
Will load it from the site root all the time! In the example I put /path/to/jquery.js, if your index.php is in the public folder, then i usually put js in a js folder, so the link would be /js/jquery-3.3.1.js

Data not being able to be saved into database PHP

I have this problem here where when I press the Add button, it should save my selected choices into my table in database.
But when I press it, my table in database did not receive any data.
Did I do something wrong with my code? I need to find a right way to save the data into my designated table.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Your error is where you check for button click.
Change to this

For future purposes and references, When doing the above, include the name attribute from your button and not the value attribute

How to connect the html drop down to fetch the records from mysql database

I'm struggling for this, please some one help. I'm not a html or php expert.
I've created a simple webpage that pulls the records from mysql database from last 7 days, 10 days etc by changing the select statement every time. Works fine till here.
But it is a pain to change the select statement every time, instead I want to create a simple drop down list.
I've added simple drop down with the list of the dates like 1(indicates one day of records), 7- 7 days of records etc. Once the user select 7, then it has to jump to that query that pulls 7 day records and then continue.
But what am I doing wrong here, I can't able to execute it.
Here is my code
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>
<select name="value">
<option value="7">7</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
</select>
<?php
$dbh = mysqli_connect("","", "", "");
if (!$dbh) {
echo "Error: Unable to connect to mysqli." . PHP_EOL;
echo "Debugging errno: " . mysqli_connect_errno() . PHP_EOL;
echo "Debugging error: " . mysqli_connect_error() . PHP_EOL;
exit;
}
print ("<h1>Metrics</h1>");
print ("<table class=\"hovertable\">\n");
if($_POST['value'] == '7')
{
// query to get 7 records
$select="select * from table where FROM_UNIXTIME(date)>= (NOW() - INTERVAL 7 DAY)";
}
else
{
// query to get 1 records
$select="select * from table where FROM_UNIXTIME(date)>= (NOW() - INTERVAL 1 DAY)";
}
$result = $dbh->query($select);
print "Total records :". ' '. $result->num_rows ;
if ($result->num_rows > 0)
{
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc())
{
// Capture each record
$data = array('row'=>$row);
print ("<tr>");
print ("<td style=\"white-space: nowrap\"> $ID</td>");
print ("<td style=\"white-space: nowrap\"> $department</td>");
print ("<td style=\"white-space: nowrap\"> $customername</td>");
print ("<td style=\"white-space: nowrap\"> $date</td>");
print ("</tr>\n");
}
}
else
{
echo "0 results";
}
exit;
?>
$dbh->close();
</p>
</body>
</html>
I see that you are checking for the user posted value here :
$_POST['value']
But I did not see where and how you are posting this value to the page. Maybe you need a form and a submit button to post the selected value:
<form action="youpage.php" method="post">
//your dropdown code here
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
You most post the value of the select by either a form or JavaScript.
Using a form would look like:
<form method="post">
<select name="value">
<option value="7">7</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="go" />
</form>
Using JavaScript
<form method="post" >
<select name="value" onchange="this.form.submit()">
<option value="7">7</option>
<option value="1">1</option>
</select>
</form>
If you don't want the whole page to reload, you'd want to separate or copy the query and table into another PHP page, and submit the form using an XHR.
Updated to include a function to create the select options.
<?php
Function ddform_Interval($array) {

updating sql table for selected check box values

I dynamically create table rows with checkboxes. Check a few of them and then perform and update query on the selected ones. But the problem I face is that only the first selected record gets updated even though I have used foreach loop.
Following is the code.
<?php
$checkbox = $_POST['pr'];
$year = $_POST['promoteyearselect1'];
$semester = $_POST['promotesemselect1'];
# $db = mysql_connect("abc", "abc", "");
mysql_select_db("abc");
foreach($checkbox as $value){
if(isset($checkbox)){
if(($semester%2)==0) {
$strSQL = "UPDATE student SET year='".++$year."', semester='".++$semester."' WHERE enrollment='".$value."'";
$rs = mysql_query($strSQL);
if($rs){
echo 'Promotion Successful';
header("location:page1.php");
echo '<script> alert("Promotion Successful");</script>';
}
else echo "Sorry, but that did not work. ";
}
else{
$strSQL = "UPDATE student SET semester=".++$semester."' WHERE enrollment='".$value."'";
$rs = mysql_query($strSQL);
if($rs){
echo 'Promotion Successful';
header("location:page1.php");
echo '<script> alert("Promotion Successful");</script>';
}
else echo "Sorry, but that did not work. ";
}
}
}
mysql_close($db);
?>
Even though I use the foreach loop to get through the array of checkboxes, still only the first checked record gets updated.
This is the html part
<div class="dropdown dropdown-dark">
<select name="promoteyearselect1" id="promoteyearselect1" class="dropdown-select" onfocus="showhidephdmenu()" form="promotionform" required>
<option value="">Select an option</option>
<div id="yearselect1">
<option value="1">1st</option>
<option value="2">2nd</option>
<option value="3">3rd</option>
<option value="4">4th</option>
<option value="5">5th</option>
</div>
</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="dropdown dropdown-dark">
<select name="promotesemselect1" id="promotesemselect1" class="dropdown-select" form="promotionform" required>
<option value="">Select an option</option>
<option value="1">1st</option>
<option value="2">2nd</option>
<option value="3">3rd</option>
<option value="4">4th</option>
<option value="5">5th</option>
<option value="6">6th</option>
<option value="7">7th</option>
<option value="8">8th</option>
<option value="9">9th</option>
<option value="10">10th</option>
</select>
</div>
<button id="promotego" class="login-button" style=" position:relative; padding: 0 0 0; " onclick="getpromotestudents()"></button>
</div>
<form id="promotionform" action="promotestudents.php" method="POST">
<div id="promoteresults">
The results will show up here..!!
</div>
<div style=" position:relative; margin-top:10px; padding-left:44%;">
<input type="submit" value="Promoted" class="button black"></input>
Passed Out
</div>
</form>
This is the PHP that gets the records and generates checkboxes.
$i=1;
while($r = mysql_fetch_array($rs)){
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td class='promotetabledata'>".$r[7]."</td>";
echo "<td class='promotetabledata'>".$r[6]."</td>";
echo "<td class='promotetabledata'><input type='checkbox' name='pr[]' value='".$r[7]."'/></td>";
echo "</tr>";
$i++;
}
Here is the modified code that finally worked for me, I added spaces in the if($semester % 2 != 0)
<?php
$checkbox = $_POST['pr'];
$year = $_POST['promoteyearselect1'] + 1 ;
$semester = $_POST['promotesemselect1'] + 1;
$con = mysqli_connect("localhost","root","","university") or die("Error " . mysqli_error($con));
foreach($checkbox as $value){
if(isset($checkbox)){
// echo $value;
if( $semester % 2 != 0) {
// echo $value;
$strSQL = "UPDATE student SET year='".$year."', semester='".$semester."' WHERE enrollment='".$value."'";
$rs = mysqli_query($con, $strSQL);
if($rs){
echo 'Promotion Successful';
header("location:page1.php");
echo '<script> alert("Promotion Successful");</script>';
}
else echo "Sorry, but that did not work. ";
}
else{
$strSQL = "UPDATE student SET semester='".$semester."' WHERE enrollment='".$value."'";
$rs = mysqli_query($con, $strSQL);
if($rs){
echo 'Promotion Successful';
header("location:page1.php");
echo '<script> alert("Promotion Successful");</script>';
}
else echo "Sorry, but that did not work. ";
}
}
}
mysqli_close($con);
?>
I didn't found any checkbox with name 'pr' in your code..If there is any ..please make it an array and try
like <input type="checkbox" name="pr[]">

PHP/JS: Dynamic Dropboxes and echoing SELECTED value

I am currently working with a dynamic dropdown menu(dependable select boxes). I am pulling the values straight from MySQL DB(if your curious here is how i have the DB SETUP). I am able to get the values of each table and display them accordingly. The problem I am having is echoing the SELECTED value of each selct box. I have a created JS function that will request postfile.php which will then echo the SELECTED value of each box. I am not getting anything echoed. I have checked with firebug but nothing is being posted.
How can I make this work? or Am I approaching this wrong? or Is there a better way? EXAMPLE
Working HTML/PHP
<?php
include ('includes/dbConnect.php');
try {
$pdo = get_database_connection();
$sql = "SELECT *
FROM `categories`
WHERE `master_id` = 0";
$statement = $pdo->query($sql);
$list = $statement->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
} catch(PDOException $e) {
echo 'There was a problem';
}
?>
<select name="main" id="main" size="7" class="update">
<option value="">Select one</option>
<?php if (!empty($list)) { ?>
<?php foreach($list as $row) { ?>
<option value="<?php echo $row['id']; ?>">
<?php echo $row['name']; ?>
</option>
<?php } ?>
<?php } ?>
</select>
<select name="subc1" id="subc1" size="7" class="update" disabled="disabled" hidden="hidden">
<option value="">----</option>
</select>
<select name="subc2" id="subc2" size="7" class="update" disabled="disabled" hidden="hidden">
<option value="">----</option>
</select>
<select name="subc3" id="subc3" size="7" class="update" disabled="disabled" hidden="hidden">

Maybe you would like to use jQuery UI auto-complete. It is easier to use and less code. It has a remote data source also. Try this one, maybe this can solve your problem. http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/
Add on submit action to the form. In the function use the following:
var Myvar = $('#subc3 :selected').text();
