Setting event using a date, not a day in every month? - El Forum - 11-01-2007
[eluser]stef569[/eluser]
Hi,
When I add a event to my calendar I want to set it to a specific date.
atm I use
Code:
<?php $events = array(
1/11/2007 => 'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA',
7 => 'B',
13 => 'C',
26 => 'D'
); ?>But it appears to only work with days, I tried to put a date in but AAA is not showing up.
Does the calender only support reoccuring events over months?
nvm reading uri.. can't delete this topic.

It took me a while to understand what you mean but I think you want something like the following?
Code:
<?php
class Some_class extends Controller {
function Some_class() {
parent::Controller();
$base = base_url();
$prefs = array (
'start_day' => 'monday',
'month_type' => 'long',
'day_type' => 'short',
'show_next_prev' => TRUE,
'next_prev_url' => $base."/index.php/some_class/show/"
);
$this->load->library('calendar', $prefs);
}
function show() {
$events = array();
if ($this->uri->segment(3) == '2007') {
if ($this->uri->segment(4) == '11') {
$events = array(7 => 'B', 13 => 'C', 26 => 'D');
}
}
echo $this->calendar->generate($this->uri->segment(3),
$this->uri->segment(4),
$events);
}
}

Well, yes but I use a db so my code looks as following:
Code:
function show() {
$month = $this->uri->segment(3);
$year = $this->uri->segment(4);
$query = $this->db->query('SELECT user_id, event_Bday, event_EDay FROM events WHERE event_month='.$month.' AND event_year='.$year);
$data['events'] = this->createEvents($query);
$data['heading'] = 'Week toeren Kalender';
$this->load->view('calender_view', $data);
}
// Create array of days with content
function createEvents($query) {
foreach($query->result() as $row) {
$curDay = $row['event_Bday'];
while($curDay < $row['event_EDay']) {
$curDay++;
$events = array($curDay => $row['user_id']);
}
}
return $events;
}but I get

Code:
// Create array of days with content
function createEvents($query) {
$events = array();
foreach($query->result_array() as $row) {
$curDay = $row['event_Bday'];
while($curDay < $row['event_EDay']) {
$curDay++;
$events[$curDay] = $row['user_id'];
}
}
return $events;
}I'll put my pennies worth in..
think as you are using arrays to access the query result you should be using $query->result_array();
you need to default the events array in case nothing is returned and also you were also overwriting the events array (not sure that was desired behavior?)
I have tried to do a fix see above but it is untested.
another tip, if your debugging use echo and print_r to display variables (you can take them out when it works)
e.g.
Code:
...
...
while($curDay < $row['event_EDay']) {
$curDay++;
$events[$curDay] = $row['user_id'];
echo "Current Day:".$curDay."<br>";
echo "Events Array<br>";
print_r($events);
}
...

Hi, I saw my errors and correct them,
1. I was overwriting my array (no that wasen't part of the plan :d)
2. I thought I got an aray when it was an object.
3. Input validation
4. Testing i didn't know about the print_r will look into it.
This works:
Code:
// Create array of days as key with content(userId)
//@param $query db record object.
function createEvents($query) {
if ($query->num_rows() > 0) {
foreach ($query->result() as $row) {
$curDay = $row->event_Bday;
while($curDay <= $row->event_EDay) {
echo 'Day: '.$curDay.' UserId: '.$row->user_id.'<br/>';
$events[$curDay++] = $row->user_id;
}
}
} else {
echo 'No Events for this month.';
}
return $events;
}Thx for the help once again, I realy learnt alot from your code examples
Mayby once I can help you out
so we are even again
