1 PHP: Date() Function The PHP date() function formats a timestamp to a more readable date and time.

2 PHP: Date() Function The required format parameter in the date() function specifies how to format the date/time. d - Represents the day of the month (01 to 31)‏ m - Represents a month (01 to 12)‏ Y - Represents a year (in four digits)‏ Other characters, like"/", ".", or "-" can also be inserted between the letters to add additional formatting.

3 PHP: Date() Function

4 PHP: Date() Function The optional timestamp parameter in the date() function specifies a timestamp. If you do not specify a timestamp, the current date and time will be used. The mktime() function returns the Unix timestamp for a date. The Unix timestamp contains the number of seconds between the Unix Epoch (January :00:00 GMT) and the time specified.

5 PHP: Date() Function

6 PHP: Server Side Includes (SSI)‏
You can insert the content of one PHP file into another PHP file before the server executes it, with the include() or require() function. include() generates a warning, but the script will continue execution require() generates a fatal error, and the script will stop

7 PHP: Server Side Includes (SSI)‏
These two functions are used to create functions, headers, footers, or elements that will be reused on multiple pages. SSI saves a lot of work. This means that you can create a standard header, footer, or menu file for all your web pages. When the header needs to be updated, you update the include file, or when you add a new page to your site, you can simply change the menu file (instead of updating the links on all your web pages).

8 PHP: include() Function
The include() function takes all the content in a specified file and includes it in the current file. If an error occurs, the include() function generates a warning, but the script will continue execution.

9 PHP: include() Function
Assume that you have a standard header file, called "header.php". To include the header file in a page, use the include() function:

10 PHP: include() Function
Assume we have a standard menu file, called "menu.php", that should be used on all pages:

11 PHP: include() Function

12 PHP: include() Function

13 PHP: require() Function
The require() function is identical to include(), except that it handles errors differently. If an error occurs, the include() function generates a warning, but the script will continue execution. The require() generates a fatal error, and the script will stop.

14 PHP: require() Function

15 PHP: require() Function

16 PHP: require() Function

17 PHP: require() Function

18 PHP: Cookies A cookie is often used to identify a user. A cookie is a small file that the server embeds on the user's computer. Each time the same computer requests a page with a browser, it will send the cookie too. With PHP, you can both create and retrieve cookie values.

19 PHP: setcookie() Function
The setcookie() function is used to set a cookie. Note: The setcookie() function must appear BEFORE the <html> tag.

20 PHP: setcookie() Function
In the example below, we will create a cookie named "user" and assign the value "Alex Porter" to it. We also specify that the cookie should expire after one hour:

21 PHP: setcookie() Function
You can also set the expiration time of the cookie in another way. It may be easier than using seconds.

22 PHP: $_COOKIE The PHP $_COOKIE variable is used to retrieve a cookie value. In the example below, we retrieve the value of the cookie named "user" and display it on a page:

23 PHP: $_COOKIE

24 MySQL: Introduction MySQL is a database.
The data in MySQL is stored in database objects called tables. A table is a collection of related data entries and it consists of columns and rows.

25 MySQL: Tables A database most often contains one or more tables. Each table is identified by a name (e.g. "Customers" or "Orders"). Tables contain records (rows) with data. Below is an example of a table called "Persons":

26 MySQL: Queries A query is a question or a request.
With MySQL, we can query a database for specific information and have a recordset returned. Look at the following query:

27 MySQL: Queries The query above selects all the data in the "LastName" column from the "Persons" table, and will return a recordset like this:

28 MySQL: mysql_connect()‏
Before you can access data in a database, you must create a connection to the database. In PHP, this is done with the mysql_connect() function.

29 MySQL: mysql_connect()‏
In the following example we store the connection in a variable ($con) for later use in the script. The "die" part will be executed if the connection fails:

30 MySQL: mysql_close()‏
The connection will be closed automatically when the script ends. To close the connection before, use the mysql_close() function:

31 MySQL: Create a Database
The CREATE DATABASE statement is used to create a database in MySQL. To get PHP to execute the statement above we must use the mysql_query() function. This function is used to send a query or command to a MySQL connection.

32 MySQL: Create a Database

33 MySQL: Create a Table The CREATE TABLE statement is used to create a table in MySQL. We must add the CREATE TABLE statement to the mysql_query() function to execute the command.

34 MySQL: Create a Table

35 MySQL: Create a Table

36 MySQL: Create a Table Important: A database must be selected before a table can be created. The database is selected with the mysql_select_db() function. Note: When you create a database field of type varchar, you must specify the maximum length of the field, e.g. varchar(15).

37 MySQL: Create a Table Primary Keys and Auto Increment Fields
Each table should have a primary key field. A primary key is used to uniquely identify the rows in a table. Each primary key value must be unique within the table. Furthermore, the primary key field cannot be null because the database engine requires a value to locate the record.

38 MySQL: Create a Table The following example sets the personID field as the primary key field. The primary key field is often an ID number, and is often used with the AUTO_INCREMENT setting. AUTO_INCREMENT automatically increases the value of the field by 1 each time a new record is added. To ensure that the primary key field cannot be null, we must add the NOT NULL setting to the field.

39 MySQL: Create a Table

40 MySQL: Inserting Data The INSERT INTO statement is used to add new records to a database table. Syntax It is possible to write the INSERT INTO statement in two forms.

41 MySQL: Inserting Data The first form doesn't specify the column names where the data will be inserted, only their values: The second form specifies both the column names and the values to be inserted:

42 MySQL: Inserting Data To get PHP to execute the statements above we must use the mysql_query() function. This function is used to send a query or command to a MySQL connection. Example Previously we created a table named "Persons", with three columns; "Firstname", "Lastname" and "Age". We will use the same table in this example. The following example adds two new records to the "Persons" table:

43 MySQL: Inserting Data

44 MySQL: Inserting Data - forms
Now we will create an HTML form that can be used to add new records to the "Persons" table.

45 MySQL: Inserting Data - forms
When a user clicks the submit button in the HTML form in the example above, the form data is sent to "insert.php". The "insert.php" file connects to a database, and retrieves the values from the form with the PHP $_POST variables. Then, the mysql_query() function executes the INSERT INTO statement, and a new record will be added to the "Persons" table.

46 MySQL: Inserting Data - forms

47 MySQL: Selecting Data The SELECT statement is used to select data from a database. To get PHP to execute the statement above we must use the mysql_query() function. This function is used to send a query or command to a MySQL connection.

48 MySQL: Selecting Data

49 MySQL: Selecting Data The example above stores the data returned by the mysql_query() function in the $result variable. Next, we use the mysql_fetch_array() function to return the first row from the recordset as an array. Each call to mysql_fetch_array() returns the next row in the recordset. The while loop loops through all the records in the recordset. To print the value of each row, we use the PHP $row variable ($row['FirstName'] and $row['LastName']).

50 MySQL: Selecting Data The output of the code above will be:
Here's how to return the data in an HTML table:

51 MySQL: Selecting Data

52 MySQL: Selecting Data

53 MySQL: Selecting Data The WHERE clause is used to extract only those records that fulfill a specified criterion. To get PHP to execute the statement above we must use the mysql_query() function. This function is used to send a query or command to a MySQL connection.

54 MySQL: Selecting Data

55 MySQL: Ordering The ORDER BY keyword is used to sort the data in a recordset. The ORDER BY keyword sorts the records in ascending order by default. If you want to sort the records in a descending order, you can use the DESC keyword.

56 MySQL: Ordering

57 MySQL: Ordering It is also possible to order by more than one column. When ordering by more than one column, the second column is only used if the values in the first column are equal:

58 The UPDATE statement is used to update existing records in a table.
MySQL: Updating The UPDATE statement is used to update existing records in a table.

59 MySQL: Updating Note: Notice the WHERE clause in the UPDATE syntax. The WHERE clause specifies which record or records that should be updated. If you omit the WHERE clause, all records will be updated! To get PHP to execute the statement above we must use the mysql_query() function. This function is used to send a query or command to a MySQL connection.

60 MySQL: Updating

61 MySQL: Deleting The DELETE FROM statement is used to delete records from a database table.

62 MySQL: Deleting Note: Notice the WHERE clause in the DELETE syntax. The WHERE clause specifies which record or records that should be deleted. If you omit the WHERE clause, all records will be deleted! To get PHP to execute the statement above we must use the mysql_query() function. This function is used to send a query or command to a MySQL connection.

63 MySQL: Deleting

64 MySQL: Examples

65 MySQL: Examples $order = 'date ASC'; $current_time = time();
$getevents = $DB->query("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "p18_events WHERE activated = '1' AND date >= '$current_time' ORDER BY " . $order . " LIMIT 5"); $rows = $DB->get_num_rows($getevents); echo '<br /> <hr /> <br /> <b><font color="maroon"> Upcoming JCF & Mythological RoundTable® Group Events </font></b><br /><br /> <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">';

66 $rotate = 0; for($i = 0; $i < $rows && $i < $limit; $i++)‏ { $event = $DB->fetch_array($getevents); echo '<tr> <td style="padding: 4px;" bgcolor="'.iif($rotate, $rowcolor3, $rowcolor2).'"> <a href="' .

'</td> </tr>'; if($rotate)‏ { $rotate = 0; } else { $rotate = 1; } }

67 MySQL: Examples echo '</table>
<p style="padding: 7px 0px 0px 4px;"> <a href=" style="color: maroon;"> See the entire calendar of events >></font></a></p>';
