JSON/PHP script and callbacks [duplicate] - php

Question

This is my JSONP file:
<?php
header('Content-type: application/javascript;');
header("access-control-allow-origin: *");
header("Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET");
//db connection detils
$host = "localhost";
$user = "test";
$password = "test";
$database = "myradiostation1";
//make connection
$server = mysql_connect($host, $user, $password);
$connection = mysql_select_db($database, $server);
//query the database
$query = mysql_query("SELECT *, DATE_FORMAT(start, '%d/%m/%Y %H:%i:%s') AS start,
DATE_FORMAT(end, '%d/%m/%Y %H:%i:%s') AS end FROM radiostation1");
//loop through and return results
for ($x = 0, $numrows = mysql_num_rows($query); $x < $numrows; $x++) {
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query);
$shows[$x] = array("id" => $row["id"], "startminutes" => $row["startminutes"], "start" => $row["start"], "endminutes" => $row["endminutes"],"end" => $row["end"],"mediumname" => $row["mediumname"], "longname" => $row["longname"], "description" => $row["description"],"short_id" => $row["short_id"],"promomessage" => $row["promomessage"],"email" => $row["email"],"phonenumber" => $row["phonenumber"],"textnumber" => $row["textnumber"],"textprefix" => $row["textprefix"],"showimage" => $row["showimage"],"longdescription" => $row["longdescription"],"facebooklink" => $row["facebooklink"],"otherlink" => $row["otherlink"],"websitelink" => $row["websitelink"],"keywords" => $row["keywords"] );
}
//echo JSON to page
$response = $_GET["callback"] . "(" . json_encode($shows) . ");";
echo $response;
?>
It does work, up to a point, but getting the {"success":true,"error":"","data":{"schedule": as seen at this site before my json_encode is where I am.
However, I cannot get it to display any data in my table, although it DOES produce code on-screen when I view it at http://www.myradio1.localhost/onairschedule.php.
The actual code is stored at http://www.myradiostations.localhost/schedule.php
and the callback function works OK, one example being http://www.myradiostations.localhost/schedule.php?callback=?&name=Northern+FM and http://www.myradiostations.localhost/schedule.php?callback=?&name=Southern+FM but what do I need to do to make it change like in these examples:
this example and this example, and to generate an error message like this if no such file exists.
I'm halfway there, just need some advice on fixing my code!
Basically, what I'm trying to do... get a JSONP to work in my HTML table which will vary the content depending on the URL in my javascript file on my page, which is:
var doFades = true;
var LocalhostRadioStations = {
Schedule : {}
};
$(document).ready(function(){
LocalhostRadioStations.Schedule.days = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday', 'Saturday']
LocalhostRadioStations.Schedule.Show = function () {
_s = null;
_startDate = null;
_endDate = null;
this.days = LocalhostRadioStations.Schedule.days;
_selector = '';
this.setShow = function(s) {
this._s = s;
this._startDate = new Date( parseInt(s.startminutes, 10) * 1000);
this._endDate = new Date(parseInt(s.endminutes, 10) * 1000 );

//console.log(this._s.longname +' ends at midnight');
return 48;

return this.getEndDate().getMinutes() !== 0 ? (this.getEndDate().getHours() * 2) : (this.getEndDate().getHours() * 2);

return html;
};
this.setTableSelector = function(sel){
this._selector = sel;
};
// check if we should add the active class.
this.isActive = function(){

return t >= this.getStartDate() && t <= this.getEndDate();
};
};
LocalhostRadioStations.Schedule.ScheduleGen = function(){
return {
insertShow : function(show) {
var p = show.getCellPositions();
$('tr#units-' + p.startUnits).append(show.toHtml());
},
init : function (stationName){
var self = this;

$.getJSON('http://www.myradiostations.localhost/schedule.php?callback=?&name=', {
name: 'Northern FM'
}, function(json){
// loop each show and append to our giant table.

if(json.success === false)

$('td.time').each(function(i, cell){

}

}
});
}
};
}();
LocalhostRadioStations.Schedule.ScheduleGen.init(twittiName);
});
It should change the schedule according to the JSONP, but what do I do to fix it?
Basically, I am trying to make my own localhost version of http://radioplayer.bauerradio.com/schedule.php?callback=&name=Rock+FM and its JSON / JSONP (I am not sure exactly what type the original is, but then again the site is experimental and on a .localhost domain) for testing purposes where the content is taken from the database, and changes according to station name, e.g. http://radioplayer.bauerradio.com/schedule.php?callback=&name=Metro+Radio and http://radioplayer.bauerradio.com/schedule.php?callback=&name=Forth+One etc.
Edit: The full code for my page can be seen at http://pastebin.com/ENhR6Q9j

Answer 1

I'm not sure exactly what's missing, but from the code you gave so far, I made a jsfiddle:
Demo
I modified some things to make it work (mostly appending stuff), because I don't know your original HTML file. But I also made some changes based on what you say you wanted. First of all I modified your $.getJSON call to be something like:
$.getJSON('http://radioplayer.bauerradio.com/schedule.php?callback=?', {
name: stationName //stationName is from the argument passed
}, function(json){...})
Which should give back the station based on what is passed to
LocalhostRadioStations.Schedule.ScheduleGen.init(twittiName);
To make it more interesting, I also added a bit of code that reads from the url. In this case if you go to the page with a domain.htm/page?Northern FM it will read the text after the ? and put it in twittiName.
var twittiName="Rock FM"; //default station
if(window.location.search){
twittiName=window.location.search.substring(1) //or window.location.hash
}
Tried to look for other stations that might be on your publics site, but so far I could only test with "?Rock+FM". But does mean you can show the errors, which your code can handle as it is.
?Rock+FM
?Random Name
So it seems that your code mostly works but do comment if I have missed anything.
