Hello
I would appreciate some help from someone who has knowledge of working with
css, php javascript and how they interact.
Ive been working on a task for the last few days and have started to hit a
brick wall. I need general advice on whether I m tackling the problem the
correct way and some solutions for my current problems
Ive posted my project below where ive detailed the current problems im
having http://www.iddsoftware.co.uk/test.php
in short im trying to allow my users to take their records from my database
and arrange them dynamically on a web page into custom reports. which they
can them print directly or download into something like Word
Hope you can help as that brick wall is looming

Javascript ain't my strong point, so I will just think about php and css.
First of all you should have some default starting points, as you already
have. Store those into variables, as $xh1=40;, you will also need to check if
the page has been updated or show for the first time, you can add the
<input name="updated" type="hidden" value="1">
to your form
in your php you will need to make a check something like
if($_REQUEST['updated']==1) {
$xh1=$_REQUEST['xh1'];
} else {
$xh1=40;
}
Then you have your inputs in html
<input name="xh1" class="BodyText" value="<?PHP echo $xh1;>" size="1" type="text">
You should include the css code that handles the location of the text in the
php file, and with usage of php in the same manner that in the input tag, you
will dynamically change the coordinates in the css/style part of the code.

PHP doesn't interact with either CSS or Javascript. To PHP, CSS and
Javascript are just strings being written out as part of the web page,
just as they HTML is. To CSS and Javascript, PHP doesn't exist, since
they operate only within the browser, and the browser only knows what's
on the HTML page it has been sent, and nothing about the programming
used to generate and send that page.
By the way, please do not post questions to six different groups. It
isn't necessary and annoys people who read multiple groups. One or two
of these would probably have been sufficient.
Unless it's absolutley neccesary, don't bother giving this much contorl to users for a report.
Really think if is't worth the hassle.
I suggest give the users maybe 3 or 4 templates to pick from, possibly show a picture of example
report they pick the template then select and the data is 'replaced' with your template. Here is a
example of what I do.
first make your report templates - make it elaborate as needed with css whatever...
this is just one simple sample
save this as template1.html
<html>
<head></head>
<body>
Thank you for signing up, %%name%%! <br>
Company: %%companyName%% <br>
Email: %%email%% <br>
Phone: %%phone%% <p>
Event: %%title%%, %%grpdate%% <p>
Description: <br%%data%% <p>
Time & Location: %%time%%, %%location%% <p>
Content goes here: %%content%% <p>
Sincerely,<br>
The Team<p>
</body></html>
on another page give them a choice to select a template and do a content replacement...
// after a user selects a template and submits form here is code replacement example...
if (isset($_POST["submit"]){
$report = $_POST['report'];
...... blah blah other code here as needed
// at this point generate the content variables with query
$name = $data['name'];
$companyName = $data['companyName'];
$password = $data['password'];
$email = $data['email'];
$phone = $data['phone'];
$data = $data['data'];
if($report=='1') $message = implode(file("template1.html"));
if($report=='2') $message = implode(file("template2.html"));
if($report=='3') $message = implode(file("template3.html"));
$message = str_replace("%%companyName%%", $companyName, $message);
$message = str_replace("%%name%%", $name, $message);
$message = str_replace("%%password%%", $password, $message );
$message = str_replace("%%phone%%", $phone, $message );
$message = str_replace("%%data%%", $data, $message );
}
the above is just an example to follow. From there you can email the entire doc, display on
screen, or make it a pdf doc look into html 2 pdf at sourgeforge
Note you don't have to use %%somevalue%% it can be anything
~somevalue~
Good Luck

Some useful tips Gleep that I can use somewhere else
Unfortunately I do need this level of flexibility wher euser creates their
own report as there will be large variations between users.

Please don't do this.
1. The HTML markup is poor. No DTD and it's not even valid HTML.
2. There's no need to do this. Half-decent HTML and CSS will provide
just as much flexibility, without having to change the page generation
at all.
3. If you must use templating in HTML, then you can do better markers
than "%%title%%"

And you'll live if people choose not to answer your questions, if that's
how you want to play the game.
Another thing that is annoying when you open a reply to your post eagerly
thinking someone has answered your question, only to find it is just someone
moaning about something. That actually wastes time and is probably even more
annoying.

He crossposted properly; something is wrong with your newsreader if you
are seeing the question more than once.
Still 6 groups does seem like overkill.

Not nearly as annoying as opening a message thinking you could help them
and finding it posted to umpteen different newsgroups - and the question
not even being applicable to many of those newsgroups (including the one
you're looking at it from).
You go ahead and keep posting to all kinds of newsgroups. Watch your
responses drop to zero.
A friendly suggestion - do a little homework. Find 2 or 3 newsgroups
which are appropriate to your question and post in those.

Then don't use usenet as your tech support service if you don't like
the fact that anybody can post anything in a public forum. Go to a
moderated newsgroup, or hire a consultant and you'll get more direct
answers.

For templating, personally I'm a big fan of smarty -- see http://smarty.php.net
CSS lets you separate styling from markup.
Smarty lets you go further, separating php scripts from HTML
content.
The HTML content is all in templates and the php scripts perform
all the logical operations, set the smarty template variables to be
filled in, etc. The smarty templates have directives to include
other templates, if/elseif/then logic, math and logic operators,
etc.

Top-posting is another annoying thing.
So is ignoring the fact that someone did in fact provide a valid answer
to your question, as I did.
But beyond that, one of the most annoying things is someone who solicits
help but then, when someone explains posting etiquette to him, gives a
response like "they'll live", showing a puzzling disregard for the very
people whose assistance he's hoping to enlist.

Yes. In fact, I think six is the maximum my news provider will allow me

It wouldn't be the first time I've seen someone say something flip and
then follow it with a smiley in the sense of, "yeah, I know I just said
something obnoxious, but you're not going to hold me responsible for it,
are you?" I guess the difference between this and a smiley I would buy
is that in this case the flip line came by itself, rather than as an
amusing follow-up to some acknowledgment of the point that had been
brought to your attention.

Hello
Java Applets are new teritory for me. I will take a look at your link and
see what they are all about perhaps they can help.
Regarding my orginal problem. I think Ive cracked it. Its to do with
the'relative' bit in the style. it limits how widely the bits of text can be
moved arround. I found that putting <brbetween each seems to help but it
still means that they can only move around within their natural order.
Unfortunately changing it to absolute will only solve the problem if one
record is dispayed. but because I have many records populating a table using
absolute dumps them all on top of each other.
Looks like I will have to use relative and allow less manipulation by the
user

Actually, 3 is the max recommended by most usenet gurus. This was twice

Yes, I agree that this is a rare case where the newsgroups were all

Please don't do this.
1. The HTML markup is poor. No DTD and it's not even valid HTML.
2. There's no need to do this. Half-decent HTML and CSS will provide
just as much flexibility, without having to change the page generation
at all.
3. If you must use templating in HTML, then you can do better markers
than "%%title%%"
