Duplicate output?

burstroo

Can anyone explain to me why I'm getting a duplicate output of my html? Don't worry about my html_main stuff.. this is for integration of another product. Although everything outputted is in the $DATA before it goes there.. so before it gets to $DATA it's screwing up.

 $list = '';
 if ($handle = opendir('./uploads/')) {
   while (false !== ($file = readdir($handle)))
      {
          if ($file != '.' && $file != '..')
	  {


            $temp = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `uploads`");
            while ($upload = mysql_fetch_array($temp)) {
			  $list = "<tr><td style='border-bottom:2px #335566 solid;color:#335566;font-weight:bold;font-size:11px;background-color:#DDDDBB'><a href=\"./uploads/".$upload['name']."\">".$upload['name']."</a>&nbsp;-&nbsp;".$upload['description']."<td></tr>";
			}


      }
   }
  closedir($handle);
  }




$DATA = "
<br /><br />
<table align='center' style='color:#FFFFFF;font-weight:bold;font-size:2em;background-color:#335566; border: 3px #DDDDBB solid;' width='95%'>
 <tr>
  <td align='center'>
   <font style='color:#DABF2C;'> Sales Ideas (.PDF Format) - (</font><a href='./pdf_upload.php'><font style='color:#DABF2C;'><u>Upload New</u></span></a>)
  </td> 
 </tr> 
 ".$list."
</table>
<br /><br />
 ";




html_main($DATA,"","");

It's been a long long night/day.

In your "$list = ... " line you have a "<td>" that should be "</td>". Later you have a closing span tag for which I see no opening tag, and no closing tag for the second "<font...". Also, the "$list" string will end up containg data from only the last result row. So shouldn't that be "$list .= ..."?

If you correct those and still get incorrect output, I'd say the "html_main()" function contains the double output problem.

Those HTML issues didn't present a problem. I'm 99% positive the html_main() doesn't have the replication bug. The developers of the software were the ones who released this code, etc and others aren't getting this problem. I'm fairly sure the problem is generated before it gets placed into the function.

Infact, I'm so positive now. I printed it prior to it getting to the wrapper.. and it duplicated it TWICE.

It looks like you have two files in your uploads directory. Add one more file for triple output, two more for quadruple, etc.

BTW, the code in your first post will output only one table row, and can't be the code that produced the problem you described.

The follow up, it was that code that caused the duplicate entry. I later to find out the code causing it was

 && $file != '..'

Can't describe why it did, but it did.

Installer

No. What would cause duplication was performing the db query once for each file in the upload directory. No use describing why it would, but it would.
