[Reading From .Txt Help]

Thanks Larry!!

 

This is what I came up with, for anyone who might be interested.

 

$fp = fopen("../data/bookings.txt", "r");

$search = $_POST['search'];

$match = FALSE;

 

while ($details = fgetcsv($fp, 1000, "\t")) {

if ($details[0] == $search){

$match = TRUE;

break;

}

}

fclose($fp);

 

$code = $details[0];

$hotel = $details[1];

$tour = $details[2];

$day = $details[3];

$month = $details[4];

$year = $details[5];

$persons = $details[6];

$lunch = $details[7];

 

if ($match) {

print "<p>Booking Code: $code</p>";

print "<p>Hotel Pick Up: $hotel</p>";

print "<p>Tour: $tour</p>";

print "<p>Tour Date: $day/$month/$year</p>";

print "<p>Number of Persons: $persons</p>";

print "<p>With Lunch: $lunch</p>";

} else {

print '<p class="error">Booking code not found!</p>';

}

 

Works a treat!

[Reading From .Txt Help]

Hi,

Firstly, I just got the book, was having some troubles in a class I'm taking at uni and this has helped me heaps so far. Thankyou!

 

So what I am trying to acheive, is to be able to read from a .txt file and print info from one line if what was put in the text input form is in that line, if not print an error.

 

So I already have a page that is a form that writes data to a .txt file. It puts each input from the form on the same line, spaced by a tab and then a new form completion will be the same but on a new line.

 

ie.

B0001 Medina Great Ocean Road 01 01 2011 2 Yes

B0002 Stamford Penguin Parade 01 01 2011 3 No

 

So I want to be able to have another page with a text input box where i can search for "B0001" and then it will print the results like so:

 

 

Booking Code: B0001

Hotel Pick Up: Medina

Tour: Great Ocean Road

Tour Date: 01/01/2011

Number of Persons: 2

With Lunch: Yes

 

But if I where to input say "B1" into the text input it would give an error message.

I can do all of the above fine at the moment.

 

But I can't get it to search past the first line of the .txt file.

 

This is the code I have at the moment.

 

 

$fp = fopen("../data/bookings.txt", "r");

$details = fgetcsv($fp, 1000, "\t");

 

if (($details [0]) == $_POST['search']){

print "<p>Booking Code: {$details [0]}</p>";

print "<p>Hotel Pick Up: {$details [1]}</p>";

print "<p>Tour: {$details [2]}</p>";

print "<p>Tour Date: {$details [3]}/{$details [4]}/{$details [5]}</p>";

print "<p>Number of Persons: {$details [6]}</p>";

print "<p>With Lunch: {$details [7]}</p>";

} else {

print '<p class="error">Booking code not found!</p>';

}

I'm not sure how to approach the next step to get what I want. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
