Here's the problem, I am trying to echo a statement or an array after dynamically generated HTML, and unfortunately the thing that i want to echo goes above the HTML, is there any way to echo it after that dynamic HTML or work around?
Code:
Link 1
Link 2
if(isset($_GET["id"]) && $_GET["id"] == "do_something") {
$html = "dynamic html generate";
echo $html;
//after this im using foreach
foreach($array as $item) { echo $item . "<br />"; }
}
As I click one of these two , dynamically generated HTML shows up. Now for example I have an array:
$array = array("error1", "error2");
All the generated PHP goes above the dynamic HTML :/.
How should i fix it so that i can echo all of this array below the dynamic HTML?
Thanks
Use buffering with ob_start
ob_start();
// dynamic html code generate
$dynamic_html = ob_get_clean();
echo $dynamic_html;
// your code
echo $dynamic_html;
Sounds like you missed some closing tags (most likely </table>) in the dynamic html. Thats why the later generated echo gets displayed at the top.
Example (Note the missing closing table):
<?php
echo "<table><tr><td>TableText</td></tr>";
echo "I should be bellow the table, but going to the top.";
?>
will produce:
I should be bellow the table, but going to the top.
TableText

I want to print some html code which i stored in database, when ever i try to print that variable through its returning the compiled result of HTML code.
CODE SNIP :
$html = '<html><body><h1>hello</h1></body></html>'(this one store in db)
echo $html;
OUTPUT:
hello in h1 format
But I want
'<html><body><h1>hello</h1></body></html>' this as output.
Can anyone help me on this.
Instead
echo $html;
Use that
echo htmlspecialchars($html);
Use this
echo htmlspecialchars($html);
I'm writing an if statement in which a button needs to show if the cart is empty.
For this button I need to get the form key of the product for the data-url
So something like this:
Order
As mentioned above I need to wrap this button in an if statement, so something like this:
<?php
$_helper = Mage::helper('checkout/cart');
if (1 > $_helper->getItemsCount()){
echo 'Order';
}
else{
'<p>hello</p>';
}
?>
But obviously I can't have php echo within echo. Can anybody point me in the right direction of how to do this?
You don't put PHP inside HTML inside PHP. Since you're already in the context of PHP code, just concatenate the values you want to the output:
echo 'Order';
The resulting output is always just a string. You can simply build that string with whatever values you have.
You can just use string concatenation:
echo '<a href="#" data-url=".../' . Mage::getSingleton(...) . '"' ...
Simply don't open PHP up again. You can terminate the HTML interpretation inside an echo.
Your code should look like this:
<?php
$_helper = Mage::helper('checkout/cart');
if (1 > $_helper->getItemsCount()) {
echo 'Order';
}
else {
'<p>hello</p>';
}
?>
Here is my variable that I am actually getting from my MySQL Database:
<h1>This is a H1</h1>
<p>NOT BOLD</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>BOLD</strong></p>
I am using TinyMCE to format the code.
Here is how I echo it
<?php
// WHILE LOOP GETTING $ROW FROM MYSQL
$conContent = $row['content'];
Then, when I go to the page, it displays the output like this...

I want the variable to make the echo formatted. So like then it will have all the html formatting.
You can insert your variable inside the <strong> tags using the following method:
<?php
/* getting row from your table */
$conContent = $row['content'];
?>
<strong> <?php echo $conContent; ?> </strong>
Another solution is:
$conContent = $row['content'];
echo "<strong>" . $conContent . "</strong";
//or echo "<strong> $conContent </strong";
If the styles are to be applied to all the rows, then you could use a foreach loop:
foreach($row as $v) {
echo "<strong>$v</strong";
}
Note: This assumes that you've the mysql array result stored in a variable called $row.
It's not just for <strong tags. You can use <h1>, <p>, <div> -- it doesn't matter. PHP will output the variable content in the location you specify.
Hope this helps!
Can you check the HTML source of the output? Is the HTML still around? It looks like strip_tags() or HTMLPurifier removes your HTML. Otherwise you would either see the formatting applied or the tags in the output.
If you have HTML code in your database you don't have to do anything with it in PHP, but can directly print it.
I would like to pose a question. I have an index.php file that dynamically populates all chapters contained in the database.
My code is this :
foreach($chapters_titles as $title){
echo "<a href='index.php?chapter_id=1>". $title ['title']."</a>";
}
foreach($chapter_contents as $content){
echo "<br/>". $content;
}
I want to be able to see each chapter's sub-chapters when I click on the chapters title and sub-chapter's content when I click on the sub-chapter.
How can I achieve that?
I know that at the top of the page i'll have a block of code like
if(isset($_GET['chapter_id'])){
code
}
if(isset($_GET['sub-chapter_id'])){
code
}
I would really appreciate any pointer.
I haven't found anytihng in Google or the PHP manual, believe it or not. I would've thought there would be a string operation for something like this, maybe there is and I'm just uber blind today...
I have a php page, and when the button gets clicked, I would like to change a string of text on that page with something else.
So I was wondering if I could set the id="" attrib of the <p> to id="something" and then in my php code do something like this:
<?php
$something = "this will replace existing text in the something paragraph...";
?>
Can somebody please point me in the right direction? As the above did not work.
Thank you :)
UPDATE
I was able to get it working using the following sample:
Place this code above the <html> tag:
<?php
$existing = "default message here";
$something = "message displayed if form filled out.";
$ne = $_REQUEST["name"];
if ($ne == null) {
$output = $existing;
} else {
$output = $something;
}
?>
And place the following where ever your message is to be displayed:
<?php echo $output ?>
As far as I can get from your very fuzzy question, usually you don't need string manipulation if you have source data - you just substitute one data with another, this way:
<?php
$existing = "existing text";
$something = "this will replace existing text in the something paragraph...";
if (empty($_GET['button'])) {
$output = $existing;
} else {
$output = $something;
}
?>
<html>
<and stuff>
<p><?php echo $output ?></p>
</html>
but why not to ask a question bringing a real example of what you need? instead of foggy explanations in terms you aren't good with?
If you want to change the content of the paragraph without reloading the page you will need to use JavaScript. Give the paragraph an id.<p id='something'>Some text here</p> and then use innerHTML to replace it's contents. document.getElementById('something').innerHTML='Some new text'.
If you are reloading the page then you can use PHP. One way would be to put a marker in the HTML and then use str_replace() to insert the new text. eg <p><!-- marker --></p> in the HTML and $html_string = str_replace('<!-- marker -->', 'New Text', $html_string) assuming $html_string contains the HTML to output.
If you are looking for string manipulation and conversion you can simply use the str_replace function in php.
Please check this: str_replace()
If you're using a form (which I'm assuming you do) just check if the variable is set (check the $_POST array) and use a conditional statement. If the condition is false then display the default text, otherwise display something else.
