mysql_select_db('new');

$name=$_FILES['file']['name'];

$type=$_FILES['file']['type'];

if($type=='image/jpeg' || $type=='image/png' || $type=='image/gif' || $type=='image/pjpeg')

{

if(file_exists(dirname($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']).'/oops/upload/image/'.$name))

{

echo'file is already present';

}

else

{

$up=move_uploaded_file($_FILES['file']['tmp_name'],dirname($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']).'/oops/upload/image/'.$name);

$q=mysql_query("insert into image values('','".$name."')");

if($up && $q)

{

echo'image uploaded and stored';

}

elseif(!$up)

{

echo'image not uploaded';

}

elseif(!$q)

{

echo'image not stored';

}

else

{

echo'Invalid file type';

{
echo'<tr><td>'.$user->name.'</td><td>'.$user->state.'</td><td>'.$user->country.'</td></tr>';
}
echo'</table>';
?>

When you give print_R() in above PHP file, you can see the output on screen like below.

Create XML file using PHP and MySQL

You can get output as XML format using PHP. You can import values to XML file from Mysql database using PHP.

XML expands Extensible Markup Language. It is used to share your data across various platforms. You can also retrieve values from XML file using PHP.

Get output as XML format using PHP

If you want to convert your Mysql table values into XML format using PHP, then follow below steps.

Step1: Add header to XML file in PHP

First you need to add content type of XML file in PHP in order to get output as XML format. It need to add below PHP codes in your PHP file.

header ("content-type: text/xml");

Step2: Connect mysql database

After added content type of XML, you need to connect Mysql database using PHP to retrieve values from it. You add below codes after content type in PHP file.

mysql_connect('localhost','root','');
mysql_select_db('fitness');

Step3: Add content to XML file

Then select required values from Mysql database using mysql_query(). Retrieve values from query result using mysql_fetch_array. Finally your PHP file look likes below one.

<?php
header ("content-type: text/xml");
mysql_connect('localhost','root','') or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('fitness') or die(mysql_error());
$xml='<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>';
$qr=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `f_img` order by id desc") or die(mysql_error());
$xml.='<userlist>';
while($res=mysql_fetch_array($qr))
{
$xml.='<user><name>'.$res['name'].'</name><state>'.$res['state'].'</state><country>'.$res['country'].'</country></user>';
}
$xml.='</userlist>';
echo $xml;
?>

You will get output as XML format like below,

<userlist>
<user>

<state>California</state>
<country>USA</country>
</user>
<user>
<name>Smith</name>
<state>London</state>
<country>United Kingdom</country>
</user>
<user>

JSON

JSON expands JavaScript Object Notation. It is one of the data interchange format. You can easily read and write data through JSON file.

It is language independent. So you can retrieve data from it using any familiar languages like PHP. It should be array format, object format and both array and object fotmat.

The array format of Json file should be like this,

The object of JSON should be like this,

{
'tutorial':'PHP',
'link':'http://www.phponwebsites.com/p/php.html'
}

Get output as json format using PHP and Mysql

Now you know something about JSON files. So we are going to know how to get output as JSON format using php and mysql.

Add header to create json file using PHP and Mysql

If you want to create json file, then you have to add header for json file. It is like below

header('Content-Type: application/json');

Where json indicate this is json file

Add content to json file using PHP

Then you need to add contents to your json file as you want as. Retrieve values from query result using mysql_fetch_array. Suppose you have more values in a variable. Then you need to store all values in array. Consider the following PHP code.

<?php
header('Content-Type: application/json');
$linklist=array();
$link=array();
mysql_connect('localhost','root','') or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db('quicksai_quick') or die(mysql_error());
$qr=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `links` ") or die(mysql_error());
while($res=mysql_fetch_array($qr))
{
$link['tutorial']=$res['tutorial'];
$link['url']=$res['url'];
array_push($linklist,$link);
}
//print_R($linklist);
echo json_encode($linklist);
?>

The above example explain how to create json file on multidimensional array using PHP and Mysql.
where,
array() - create array variable.
array_push() - insert values into array
json_encode() - encode the values and returns JSON representation of values

The above example will give output as json file. It should be like this:

[

{'tutorial':'PHP', 'link':'http://www.phponwebsites.com/p/php.html'},

{'tutorial':'Mysql', 'link':'http://www.phponwebsites.com/p/mysql.html'},

{'tutorial':'htaccess','link':'http://www.phponwebsites.com/p/htaccess.html'}

]

Now you can get output as json file. Then you should know how to retrieve values from json file using PHP.

First you create database for store your link details on it. The below MySQL query is used for create database.

Create database new

where new is database name

Use new

The above query is used to use database "new".
The MySQL query for create table is,

Create table links (id int not null auto_increment primary key, name varchar(200), link varchar(200), description varchar(250))

Now the table "links" is created. Then store values into table using below query

insert into table links values('','PHP','http://www.phponwebsites.com/p/php.html','PHP doubts are clarified at Phponwebsites')

After insert values into table, your table look likes below

insert values into MySQL table for RSS Feed

2. Add header type RSS Feed

header("Content-Type: application/rss+xml; charset=ISO-8859-1");

3. Add content to RSS Feed

First of all you need to store all links in your database. Then on;y you can retrieve it using PHP. The below example we Retrieve data from MySQL database using mysql_fetch_array in PHP.
After added header, you have to add some name spaces for RSS Feed. Finally add contents to RSS Feed.

<?php
header("Content-Type: application/rss+xml; charset=ISO-8859-1");
echo '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" media="screen" href="/~d/styles/rss2full.xsl"?>

while($row=mysql_fetch_array($rss)){
echo '
<item>
<title>'.$row['name'].'</title>
<link>'.$row['link'].'</link>
<content:encoded>
<![CDATA[<p align="left">
<a href="'.$row['link'].'"><img style="background-image: none; " border="0" src="'.$ImgPath.'" /> </a></p>]]>
</content:encoded>
<description>'.$row['description'].'</description></item>';
}
echo '</channel>
</rss>';
?>

When you run this file on firfox, you will get output like below
