  1. Justsome, So theoretically, this should work? $FirstVariable = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM blah"); while($FirstWhile = mysql_fetch_array($FirstVariable)) { $SecondVariable = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM blah2 WHERE somecolumn = {$FirstWhile[othercolumn]}"); while($SecondVariable = mysql_fetch_array($SecondVariable)) { //More Code } //End Of Original While } I have to revisit my script today and get it working, but just wanted to verify that this should be completely feasible.
  2. To prevent from opening a second topic, is it possible to fetch an array with an array value? EG: A "While" statement queries array #1 We use one of the array values from Array #1 to select the group for array # 2 in a select statement A "While" statement queries array #2 basically I'm trying to updating two tables with one script, and I thought this would be possible, but I'm not getting the values from array # 2 to come through.
  3. Followed your few pointers, and got everything working. I didn't quote the (foodstored) because that was a int value. Other than that, all good, so thank you!
  4. justsomeguy, I took a stab at it in hopes it would better show you guys what I'm looking for, so here it is, and obviously, it's not working, which means I'm missing somehting (I'm thinking it has something to do with looping through each result, though I'm not sure how to implement it here...) //Select All Supply Depots$HQR = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM buildingso");//While We Are Fetching The Rows Associated With THe HQ's....while($HQROW = mysql_fetch_assoc($HQR)) { //Getting Quantities Per Person Based On Setting (This is the amount of supplies to distribute to each person based on the setting for that HQ) if($HQROW[foodlevel] == 'Minimal') { $Food = '12'; } if($HQROW[foodlevel] == 'Moderate') { $Food = '24'; } if($HQROW[foodlevel] == 'Full') {$Food = '48'; } if($HQROW[foodlevel] == 'Abundant') { $Food = '60'; } //Get The Number Of People, and therefore, number of supplies that need to be distributed. $TPPL = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM npcs WHERE hq = $HQROW[id]"); $TotalPeople = mysql_num_rows($TPPL); // Total supplies to subtract is the number of people stationed there * the food amount. $TSN = $TotalPeople * $Food; if($TSN < $HQROW[foodstored]) { } // If they have enough food at the Supply Depot, let's subtract the food and give it to the members assigned to that HQ if($TSN >= $HQROW[foodstored]) { mysql_query("UPDATE buildingso SET foodstored = foodstored - $TSN WHERE id = '$HQROW[id]'"); mysql_query("UPDATE npcs SET nourishment = nourishment + $HQROW[foodlevel] WHERE hq = $HQROW[id]"); }
  5. I guess what I'm missing is that I don't know how to run through one row at a time, and update based on the settings for that individual row?
  6. birbal, Thanks for the timely response. I just am not sure how JOIN would perform the task I need to do. I can see it for putting the information together, but the fact remains that I need to do something like supplydepot1 gives 10 supplies to id 1 2 and 10supplydepot2 gives 15 supplies to id 18 11 and 4supply depot3 gives 50 supplies to id 4 8 and 20 Since none of them are giving the same amount to the same ID's, I'm not seeing how join would work here, maybe I'm missing something? Thanks!
  7. Hello Everyone, I just wanted to drop in here and ask a couple questions of the PHP & SQL experts here. I've done work with the basics of SQL / PHP and ChronJob integration. However, I'm now on to trying to perform something a little more complex, and I'm banging my head a little bit on how exactly to get this done. In this I'm going to be using 2 tables, one we'll call Supply, another we'll call Distribution. A user (this is a browser based game), needs to elect to give X amount of supply to X member(s). The supply table contains the amount of supplies in each "Supply Depot". Basically using a ChronJob I need to do the following: 1: Select each individual Supply Depot, detect how much supply is requested (There is a column for the amount of supplies a location has, and a column for the level of supply they've requested to distribute), and then if the Supply Depot has enough supplies, release the supplies to the individual member(s). The problem I'm running into is that 1) there are multiple depots all distributing to different member(s), and 2) that the different depots may be releasing a different number of supplies. Tables/Columns In Use Table: Supply DepotColumns Within Table: TotalSupplies(int), SupplyLevel(varchar) <--- Supply level corrosponds to X amount of supplies per day, held elsewhere Table: MembersColumns Within Table: TotalSupplies(int), The index for both of these is a simple ID# column. The script will run once every 24 hours. My only guess on this was something along the lines of doing a different pull in the script for each supply level, something like: SELECT * FROM SupplyDepot WHERE SupplyLevel = 'Level1' Then some kind of For Each loop. But the exact method is elluding me, and I'm not sure if this is even the most effective method (I'm trying to do this with as little server load as possible because I expect traffic to be high. Thanks in advance guys!
  8. Hello Everyone, Just wanting to know how to parse XML from an email automatically when it comes in, and then have it place that information into a SQL database. It sounds simple enough, but I so far haven't been able to find the right guide that's made it click for me. Any help would be appreciated, or even a small sample piece with 1 or 2 XML elements and the process used. Thanks in advance!
