Array to String conversion error

Jyotsna

This is the code I use in the first page:

while ($linhadocente=mysql_fetch_array($resultado)){
$doc='$linhadocente["id_doc"]'
?>

In the second page, I need the doc that is given through, I do it this way:

$_GET("doc");

Then I get this error:

Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\WebPub[url]www.upt.pt\www\htdocs\Departamentos\docente.php[/url] on line 2

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: array() in C:\WebPub[url]www.upt.pt\www\htdocs\Departamentos\docente.php[/url] on line 2

What did I do wrong?

esure that you have some single quotes around the value of the href

note: i added spaces to make it more apparent what i added...please remove them to avoid errors

Jyotsna

Thank you for you solution, but it isn't working. Now I get this error:

Parse error: parse error, unexpected $end in C:\WebPub[url]www.upt.pt\www\htdocs\docentes.php[/url] on line 46

bastien

needed to close the <? ?> bracket...sorry

Jyotsna

Can't get it working...still the same errors :-(

check this line as well

$doc='$linhadocente["id_doc"]'

missing semicolon + the singlequotes are not needed

bastien

consider this

<?
//lots of your code

$doc_id=$linhadocente["id_doc"];
$doc_name=$linhadocente["nome_doc"];

echo "<a href='docente.php?doc=$doc_id'>$doc_name</a> ";

it may be a little easier to handle and clearer for you

amchargue

$doc='$linhadocente["id_doc"]'

missing semicolon as someone noted above;

plus, why are you putting single quotes around it?

plus, you don't use $doc anywhere else on the page?

plus, agree you don't need single quotes in your <a href.. but you should have double quotes.

plus,

<a href=docente.php?doc=<?echo $linhadocente["id_doc"];?> ><?echo $linhadocente["nome_doc"];?></a>

there's a space between ?> and ><? which I guess could mess up the value of doc in the querstring there -- might have a space appended to the intended value

My code is like this now:

<?
include("mysql.uportu.inc");
$sql="SELECT * FROM docentes WHERE nome_doc<>'' ORDER BY nome_doc";
$resultado=@($sql);
while ($linhadocente=mysql_fetch_array($resultado)){
//$doc=$linhadocente["id_doc"];
$doc_id=$linhadocente["id_doc"];
$doc_name=$linhadocente["nome_doc"];

And still...I get the same errors. I can see in the explorer, that it gives through the doc like this:

http://admbeta0:8080/docente.php?doc=226

But s it doesn't want to take it in the second page 🙁

I'm almost getting crazy about this...It worked in Linux Apache, but now in Windows IIS it refuses to work

bernouli

the second page should be

$_GET["doc"];

I'm almost getting crazy about this...It worked in Linux Apache, but now in Windows IIS it refuses to work

With all your errors, i dont think it worked in Linux Apache

Jyotsna

It really worked in Apache...I'm just converting the site, didn't program it myself

But still...this solution isn't working either

bernouli

which errors do yo get now? can you copy it here, and with your codes, but pls with colors

Jyotsna

I attached my code in a zip-file.
This is the code with the $_GET("doc"). Then I get these errors:

Notice: Array to string conversion in C:\WebPub[url]www.upt.pt\www\htdocs\Departamentos\docente.php[/url] on line 2

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: array() in C:\WebPub[url]www.upt.pt\www\htdocs\Departamentos\docente.php[/url] on line 2

If I use your solution $_GET["doc"] then I get this error:

Notice: Undefined variable: doc in C:\WebPub[url]www.upt.pt\www\htdocs\Departamentos\docente.php[/url] on line 3

$GET("doc") is wrong.
$GET["doc"] is correct, but you don't seem to be doing much with it.

instead of

$_GET["doc"];
if ($doc) {

it is probably supposed to be

$doc = $_GET["doc"];
if ($doc) {

or even easier

if ($_GET["doc"]) {

Jyotsna

It works!!! Thank you all so much for your help!!!
