I was asked that the output file should only output the name and id of the last person who uploaded a file with a specific name. confusing right? even I am confused. so let me give an example
let us say that you have 3 employees registered in your company. lets call them
- Pikachu,
- Raichu and
- Pichu.
Pikachu has 3 files uploaded in the company, Raichu has 2 files uploaded and Pichu has also 2 files uploaded. The files must also be ordered according to employeename(ASC) and filename(DESC). Mine is already in ordered by. This is my only problem. In this case the output should look like this:
*noticed that the employee name and employee id is in the last file uploaded?? does anyone knows how to do that?please i beg you guys to help me out here T-T the task is way too hard and im just a rookie
Im thinking of using 2 tables here. table 1 for the employee id and employee name, table 2 for the file name, etc. so i guess this would also involve 2 while clause. i have the idea but i dont know how to mix them all up.
my code before I edited it like sir vincent look like this:
if ($_SESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()] == 'sa'
OR $_SESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()] == 'admin')
{
$sql= "select * from gmdc_employee
where employee_name like '%$search%'
AND employee_name like '$listname%'";
} else {
$sql = "select b.* from gmdc_user a, gmdc_employee b
where a.username = '".$_SESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()]."'
AND a.company_id = b.company_id
AND b.employee_name like '$listname%'
AND b.employee_name like '%$search%'";
}
$query = mysql_query("$sql ORDER BY employee_name,confirmation DESC
,file_id DESC,file_date DESC
LIMIT $offset,$limit") or die ( mysql_error () );
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die (mysql_error());
$total = mysql_num_rows($result);
if(!$result || mysql_num_rows($result) <= 0)
{
$fgmembersite->HandleError("No file found.");
return false;
}
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query))
{
$file_id = $row['file_id'];
$file_desc = $row['file_description'];
$file_date = $row['file_date'];
$file_name = $row['file_name'];
$file_accs = $row['folder_access'];
$file_employee = $row['employee_id'];
$file_confir = $row['confirmation'];
$file_ename = ucwords($row['employee_name']);
$info = pathinfo($file_name);
$file_ext = $info['extension'];
echo '<tr><td> </td></tr>
<tr class="subone"><td class="sub" width="100">'.$file_employee.'<br />
</td>';
if($_开发者_StackOverflowSESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()] == 'sa')
{
?>
<td class="sub" width="100">
<a href="" onclick = javascript:newPopup('addfile.php?emp=
<?php echo $file_employee ?>');><?php echo$file_ename?></a>
<br /> </td>
<?php
} else {
echo '<td class="sub" width="182">'.$file_ename.'<br /> </td>';
}
echo'<td class="sub" width="218">
<a href="'.$file_accs.$file_name.'" target="_blank"
style="text-decoration: underline;">'.$file_desc.'</a>
<br /> </td><td class="sub" width="100">
'.date('M d, Y',mktime(0,0,0,substr($file_date,5,2)
,substr($file_date,8,2),substr($file_date,0,4))).'
<br /> </td><td class="sub" width="100">'.$file_confir.'
<br /> </td>';
if($_SESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()] == 'sa')
{
if($file_confir == 'Pending' OR $file_confir == 'NotApproved')
{
if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
$fgmembersite->Delete_Db($_GET['id']);
}
echo '<td class="sub" width="100">
<a href="index.php?id='.$file_id.'">Delete</a>
<br /> </td>';
}
}
else if($_SESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()] == 'admin')
{
if($file_confir == 'Pending')
{
if(isset($_GET['yes']))
{
$fgmembersite->UpdateYesDB($_GET['yes']);
//echo "<script>location.reload();</script>";
}
else if(isset($_GET['no']))
{
$fgmembersite->UpdateNoDB($_GET['no']);
//echo "<script>location.reload();</script>";
}
if (!isset($_GET['offset'])) {
$prevoffset = 0;
} else {
$prevoffset = $_GET['offset'];
echo'<td class="sub" width="100">
<a href="index.php?offset='.$prevoffset.'&searchfile='.$search.'
&namelist='.$listname.'&yes='.$file_id.'">Approve</a>
//there's a link here<br /><br />
<a href="index.php?offset='.$prevoffset.'&searchfile='.$search.'
&namelist='.$listname.'&no='.$file_id.'">NotApprove</a>
//there's a link here
</td> ';
}
}
}?>
Just ignore every if($_SESSION[$fgmembersite->GetLoginSessionVar()] == 'admin')
and whatever, this is for different output since my file can be logged into by 3 different users. SA(programmers), admin(the approver of the file uploaded), and user(company). There are TD and TR there as well, I don't know why wont it appear here.
output looked like this:
employee_id + employee_name + file_name
3 | pichu | file6
3 | pichu | file1
1 | pikachu | file7
1 | pikachu | file4
1 | pikachi | file3
2 | raichu | file8
2 | raichu | file5
2 | raichu | file2
and I want my output to be like this:
***OUTPUT***
**employee_id employee_name file_name**
3 pichu file6
file1
1 pikachu file7
file4
file3
2 raichu file5
file2
for example that raichu uploaded another file, the output should now look like this:
OUTPUT
**employee_id employee_name file_name**
3 pichu file6
file1
1 pikachu file7
file4
file3
2 raichu file8
file5
file2
Using Vincent table structure will likely solve your problem. And to get the result you wanted, you can use single query using join for the two table. So there's no need to use two query.
SELECT e.employee_id as employee_id, //Display column for employee_id
e.employee_name as employee_name,
f.file_name as file_name
FROM employee e // The e is an alias for table
INNER JOIN file f // The inner join will return all the rows which have same employee_id on both table
ON e.employee_id = f.employee_id
ORDER BY e.employee_name, f.file_name DESC; // Order of the result default is ASC
UPDATE
I assume you have two tables and the structure is same with Vincent. Now This query will get the data on two tables. The join part here is that, when an employee_id
on employee table
has a same employee_id
on the file table
, this will return a row. Please see mysql join for more information. Then the order e.employee_id
is the employee_id on employee
table, since there's no order specified it will use the default which is ascending
.
Then output of the above query could be the below code.
employee_id + employee_name + file_name
3 | pichu | file6
3 | pichu | file1
1 | pikachu | file7
1 | pikachu | file4
1 | pikachi | file3
2 | raichu | file8
2 | raichu | file5
2 | raichu | file2
You will notice that employee_id and employee_name is repeated. This is because the query include all the columns value in a row that specified in SELECT column_name
. You can filter the duplicate value in your php, specially if you will store it first in an object rather than directly printing it.
PHP
$query = $see_the_query_above;
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error($db));
$emp_id = ""; //This will be use to remove employee_id if its already echoed.
$emp_name = ""; //This will be use to remove employee_name if its already echoed.
echo '<table>';
echo '<tr><th>employee_id</th><th>employee_name</th><th>file_name</th></tr>';
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
//Check $emp_id and $emp_name if same with the current, if same just print nothing or space else replace it with new.
$emp_id = $emp_id == $row['employee_id'] ? "" : $row['employee_id']
$emp_name = $emp_name == $row['employee_name'] ? "" : $row['employee_name'];
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td>'.$emp_id.'<td>';
echo '<td>'.$emp_name.'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$row['file_name'].'</td>';
echo '</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';
sounds like not that hard.
TABLE employee
:
this table may have two fields(in the simplest way): employee_id, employee_name
TABLE file
:
this table may have three fields: file_id, employee_id(this is a foreign key), file_name
when the file is uploaded, change its name to this format: "file" + file_id
therefor, we have:
TABLE employee
:
employee_id | employee_name ----------------------------- 1 | pikachu 2 | raichu 3 | pichu
TABLE file
:
file_id | employee_id | file_name ------------------------------------- 1 | 3 | file1 2 | 2 | file2 3 | 1 | file3 4 | 1 | file4 5 | 2 | file5 6 | 3 | file6 7 | 1 | file7 8 | 2 | file8
then it is really easy to make them all up, what do you think?
assuming you use MySQL and assuming we have establish a database connection using a reference $db:
$query = 'SELECT employee_id, employee_name FROM `employee` ORDER BY employee_name ASC';
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error($db));
echo '<table>';
echo '<tr><th>employee_id</th><th>employee_name</th><th>file_name</th></tr>';
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo '<tr>';
echo '<td>'.$row['employee_id'].'<td>';
echo '<td>'.$row['employee_name'].'</td>';
echo '<td>';
$query2 = 'SELECT file_name FROM `file` WHERE employee_id='.$row['employee_id'].' ORDER BY file_id DESC';
$result2 = mysql_query($query2) or die(mysql_error($db));
while ($row2 = mysql_fetch_assoc($result2)) {
echo $row2['file_name'].'<br />';
}
echo '</td>';
echo '</tr>';
}
echo '</table>';
this piece of code will work.
