Hi David,
I am trying to split data from an xml feed into 5 columns. This is the code I have but cant seem to get the column accross.
print "<table width='80%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='2'>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
foreach($item as $value){
}
print "<td width='20%' valign='top' bgcolor='#E4EAFC'>";
print "<div align='center'> ";
print "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "<div align='center'> ";
print "".$item["COUNTRY_NAME"]."";
print "</div>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
print "</div>";
print "</td>";
$itemCount++;
if ($itemCount == 3)
{
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
}
}
print "<tr>";
print "</table>";The current result can be seen at http://www.gynogapod.co.uk/stores/laterooms/index.php
Hiya,
Have a go with this:
<?php
$items[0]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "ENGLAND";
$items[1]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "IRELAND";
$items[2]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "SCOTLAND";
$items[3]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "WALES";
$items[4]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "FRANCE";
$items[5]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "GERMANY";
print "<html>";
print "<table width='80%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='2'>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
foreach($items as $item)
{
print "<td width='20%' valign='top' bgcolor='#E4EAFC'>";
print "<div align='center'> ";
print "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "<div align='center'> ";
print "".$item["COUNTRY_NAME"]."";
print "</div>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
print "</div>";
print "</td>";
$itemCount++;
if ($itemCount == 3)
{
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
}
}
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
?>
Hi David,
Thank for your previous post.
The code works but doesn't create the country list dynamically from the xml feed
<?php
function myRecordHandler($item)
{
$items[0]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "ENGLAND";
$items[1]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "IRELAND";
$items[2]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "SCOTLAND";
$items[3]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "WALES";
$items[4]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "FRANCE";
$items[5]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = "GERMANY";
print "<table width='80%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='2'>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
foreach($items as $item)
{
print "<td width='20%' valign='top' bgcolor='#E4EAFC'>";
print "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "".$item["COUNTRY_NAME"]."";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
print "</td>";
$itemCount++;
if ($itemCount == 5)
{
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
}}
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
return 1;
}
$url = "http://xxxxxxx.com/xml_ctry.php3?lang=eng";
MagicParser_parse($url,"myRecordHandler","xml|CTRY_LIST/COUNTRY/");
?>Should it no read something like this?
<?php
function myRecordHandler($item)
{
print "<table width='80%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='2'>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
foreach($item as $value)
{
$value = "".$item["COUNTRY_NAME"]."";
print "<td width='20%' valign='top' bgcolor='#E4EAFC'>";
print "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "".$item["COUNTRY_NAME"]."";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
print "</td>";
$itemCount++;
if ($itemCount == 5)
{
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
}}
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
return 1;
}
$url = "http://xxxx.com/xml_ctry.php3?lang=eng";
MagicParser_parse($url,"myRecordHandler","xml|CTRY_LIST/COUNTRY/");
?>Sorry Simon, I was just concentrating on the table part; not the feed reading. What I would do is read each country into an array first, and then build the table, something like this (might have some syntax errors as i've not test this, but it should be ok...!):
<?php
require("MagicParser.php");
// get all countries from the XML into $items array
$items = array();
function myRecordHandler($item)
{
global $items;
$items[]["COUNTRY_NAME"] = $item["COUNTRY_NAME"];
}
$url = "http://xxxx.com/xml_ctry.php3?lang=eng";
MagicParser_parse($url,"myRecordHandler","xml|CTRY_LIST/COUNTRY/");
// generate the HTML and table as per the previous example
print "<html>";
print "<table width='80%' border='0' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='2'>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
foreach($items as $item)
{
print "<td width='20%' valign='top' bgcolor='#E4EAFC'>";
print "<div align='center'> ";
print "<table width='100%' border='0' cellspacing='0' cellpadding='0'>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "<div align='center'> ";
print "".$item["COUNTRY_NAME"]."";
print "</div>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
print "<td>";
print "</td>";
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
print "</div>";
print "</td>";
$itemCount++;
if ($itemCount == 3)
{
print "</tr>";
print "<tr>";
$itemCount = 0;
}
}
print "</tr>";
print "</table>";
?>
Hi,
It shouldn't be down to this but just very quickly - your last 2 lines should be:
print "</tr>";print "</table>";
...other than that it looks OK so i'll have a go in a test script..
