Hi there

During the last 6 months I've put some time into learn and building simple web based apps using the cakephp framework. At this moment, a friend is asking me to build a website with shopping cart support. I was thinking to use a magento or oscommerce, but after some digs I've find some cakephp plugins for that:
infinitas[^] and kaching-php[^].

It is a hard choose for me, because I'll like to be a long term choose. Do you have any idea, which of those cakephp based apps has a better written code?

Hint: Try recording a macro in word and then checking out the generated vba code. Smile | :)

I would argue that the code functions perfectly well & answers the question.
The problem it seems, is that the question doesn't match desired outcome.

I've answered the question and you still don't have what you want. Perhaps you could consider making the question actually relate to your query?

Have a look at using word ml (word xml) format, then just push out all your data as xml text which can be read in word. (Just push it to the http stream with application/msword content type).

Hope this helps, not done this in PHP but the concept remains the same

I guess you mean you will extract a row of data with each column being placed into a text field?

if so it would kinf of look like this

$fld1 = '';
$fld2 = '';
$fld3 = '';

$sql = "select * from aTable";
$rst = mysql_query($sql);
if(mysql_num_rows($rst)>0)
{
   $fld1 = $row['col1'];
   $fld2 = $row['col2'];
   $fld3 = $row['col3'];
}

echo "<input type='text' value='".$fld1."'>";
echo "<input type='text' value='".$fld2."'>";
echo "<input type='text' value='".$fld3."'>";

Hope that helps =)

A colleague of mine came up with phpLiveDocx[^], a Zend Framework component and can read and write DOC and DOCX files in PHP on Linux, Windows and Mac.

But I haven't worked with it, might be helpful to you.

Oov.

. That could be nice.
So those people has played with the docx file format and has developed a script to generate a word document.
Hmm... like html2pdf conversions.

If people need to use in all platforms then why not convert it to a PDF.
There are lots of open sources written in simple php to convert so including images.
for all the users FYI. DOMPDF.com.

PHP/SQL -> Duplicate data on Insert when Page is refreshed

You need to check for duplication of data before
inserting it into database for all values you are
inserting.

A refresh will resubmit $_POST variables, that if you are using them in your page logic, means the logic will repeat. These values are stored on the users browser so using unset to clear the post variable will do you no good, you need to do 2 things the first is as the other poster says, make certain the information does not already exist. The second is when the data is processed send the user to a specific URL. This will keep the user from refreshing the page and having post vars repeated.

On a side note if you are echoing any information before you redirect the user, they will get a error message (headers already sent or some such). You can fix this with eith redirect by using javascript or you can redign your code to put all the echo'd information into a variable and echo that just after you redirection code.

I assume you are using an ajax framework which uses iframe to submit your form. In that case you are doing a normal refresh like you press F5. Or if you say that you are using javascript to reload the page like window.location.reload() then you will face that problem whether you are using F5 or reload using javascript. whatever. use window.location.href = window.location.href. this is like assigning a string to as the new url instead of meaning to the browser as reload. so the browser will load the page as a new request instead of page refresh. so we are reassigning a new(same) url (requesting the browser to load that page) instead of requesting the browser to reload the page. so the only difference here is loading a page and reloading a page.

To load a page use window.location.href = window.location.href (new request)
To reload a page use window.location.reload(). (refresh the same)

I suppose that your problem lies within this.

If you are not using ajax then use the redirect option in php to the same controller(page) to change the last loaded url. for example if you are posting your form data to a page called post.php in that after processing the database operation redirect to again the same post.php. by doing so you are changing the last request as a get request. and after that when you refresh the browser will issue a get request and not the previous post request because it will do a reload only with the last request.

DO YOU NEED A SAMPLE CODE?

IF THIS DID NOT SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM THEN USE
INSERT IGNORE INTO table (field1,field2) VALUES(1,2);

Better i should blog this answer with more possible combination.

I need to color a certain region of the map and for this I need the corner points' latitude and longitude.I am able to find latitude and longitude of any point in the map via the url "http://www.earthtools.org/" but I am not being able to find the corners of any region?for eg. I need to color Stockholm Sweden but I am facing problem with finding the actual border of Stockholm (Sweden) i.e what sub cities are included within Stockholm and what sub cities lies at the border of Stockholm?

Use geonames.org
or google.com geocoding.
but you need to do a lot of distance processing and angles with the lat and lng.
Use polyline option in google map or relative to it in your map tool.
That would be interesting. at least for me. haha.
I did plotting of an express bus route in the US map using google map and javascript. Interesting.

Family Tree PHP is freeware, so you could give it a try ... http://www.familytreephp.com/screenshots/[^]

Other offerings via this PHP Hot Scripts search http://www.hotscripts.com/search/all/family+tree[^]

However, I couldn't possibly comment on how good/bad/indifferent they are.

If you are asking for collaborators to develop a PHP scripting project, then post your request in this purpose built CP forum http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1651/Collaboration-Beta-Testing.aspx[^] or apply to join an existing project such as here http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=Family+Tree[^].

But if you have a specific question with regards to some aspect of your code etc then ask again giving as much specifics as possible, including errors/faults/code, otherwise, you may continue to have unanswered questions. Sorry if that sounds unhelpful.
