Beginner PHP code help


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi I'm new to php but if someone could please read the question below and help it would be great.

a)create an html page to enter a row number (1-6) in a textbox to choose a list of student records.

Did you know?Explore Trending and Topic pages for more stories like this.
b) Create a php script to receive the chosen row number
- Assign 6 values (rows) into a 2 dimensional sequential array using the array function:
$list = array(array(42356, ‘J Smith’,55), ………,array(45243, ‘M Fisher’,39) );

- The 6 values should be those of the student number (5 figure integer), student name and
module mark for 6 different students using values of your choice

-Print out the name of the student (got from the student list array), then underneath return an html table with the complete details of the student for the row chosen (got from the student list array), along with table heading values Student Number, Student Name & Module Mark.

Below is the code I have so far, if someone could help me with the rest it would be great.

Code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>

<form name="input" action="" method="get">
Enter a row number 1-6:<br/>
<input type="text" name="row" /> <br/>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

<?php

$list = array(array(42356,'J Smith',55), array(45243,'M Fisher',39), array(45363,'T White',77),
array(45676,'J Blogs',68), array(43212,'M Grey',45), array(43576,'T Brown',49) );


print "<table border=1><tr><th>Student Number</th> <th>Student Name</th> <th>Module Mark</th></tr>";
print "<tr> <td> $list[0][0]</td>";
print "<tr> <td> $list[0][1]</td>";
print "<td> $list[0][2]</td></tr>";
print "</table>"; // prints the first row

?>

</body>
</html>
