Can you please give the DB table structures which you are using ?

How do you get to know if a particular employee was present for a particular working day ? In the table structures mentioned above there is no field which stores that information. Are you retrieving that information from a log file or something ?
Please provide more information about that.

<?php
 
 $dates = array();
 $employee = array();
 $attendance_record = array();
 $getdates = "select * from mar2010 order by Date";
 $dates_resultset = mysql_query($getdates);
 while ($dates_data = mysql_fetch_assoc($dates_resultset)) {
 	$dates[] = $dates_data['date'];
 }
 
 $get_employee = "select * from emp_company";
 $employee_resultset = mysql_query($get_employee);
 while ($employee_data = mysql_fetch_assoc($employee_resultset)) {
 	$get_attendance = "select * from at0310 where ecode=".$employee_data['ecode']." and atdate in (".implode(",",$dates).") order by atdate;";
 	$employee[$employee_data['ecode']] = $employee_data['name'];
 	$attendance_resultset = mysql_query($get_attendance);
 	// Now we build the data into a mutlidimensional array() of format $attendance_record[$empcode][$date]['attendance']
 	while ($attendance_data = mysql_fetch_assoc($attendance_resultset)) {
 		// I dont know if there will a record stored in at0310 table even if the employee is absent.
 		// Hence i assume the following 2 possibilities.
 		// 1. There is no record present in at0310 if the employee is absent.
 		// 2. There is a record present in at3010 even if the employee is absent but the value in field IO is null.
 		
 		// USE any one of the following as applicable.
 		
 		
 		// FOR SCENARIO 1
 		$attendance_record[$employee_data['ecode']][$attendance_data['atdate']]['attendance'] = "P";
 		
 		// FOR SCENARIO 2
 		if ($attendance_data['IO'] != "") {
 			$attendance_record[$employee_data['ecode']][$attendance_data['atdate']]['attendance'] = "P";
 		} else {
 			$attendance_record[$employee_data['ecode']][$attendance_data['atdate']]['attendance'] = "A";
 		}
 	}
 }
 
 $tabledata = "";
 $tabledata .= "Emp code/ Name \t";
 foreach ($dates as $key => $value) {
 	$tabledata .= $value." \t";
 }
 $tabledata .= "\r\n";
 foreach ( $employee as $emp_key => $emp_value ) {
 	$tabledata .= $emp_key."/".$emp_value;
 	foreach ( $dates as $dates_key => $dates_value ) {
 		$tabledata .= "\t";
 		if ( isset($attendance_record[$emp_key][$dates_value]['attendance']) ) {
 			$tabledata .= $attendance_record[$emp_key][$dates_value]['attendance'];
 		} else {
 			$tabledata .= "A";
 		}
 		
 	}
 	$tabledata .= "\r\n";
 }
 
 $file_resource = fopen("attendance_march.txt","w+");
 fwrite($file_resource,$tabledata);
 
?>

I have used the array $attendance_record as multidimensional so that you can store as many information you want.

I hope the above snippet works.

I guess you are getting those errors coz i haven't provided the database connection.
Also please make sure you go through the comments.

oh sorry, i made a mistake in the query...

$getdates = "select * from mar2010 order by Date";

change that to

$getdates = "select * from mar10 order by Date";

I had given the wrong table name.

OK, my bad there is one more thing i went unnoticed in the tables..
In table 'mar10' the field type of 'Date' is int(5) as you have mentioned in your earlier post. So what you have to do is
1. change this to type 'DATE'
OR
2. If you are storing the 'date' details in some other format and want to continue with the same field type, You will have to make changes in the script where you are storing the data into $dates on line

$dates[] = $dates_data['Date'];

Make sure that the value stored in the $dates array() is of format YYYY-mm-dd

One more thing you need to change is replace the query

$get_attendance = "select * from at0310 where ecode=".$employee_data['ecode']." and atdate in (".implode(",",$dates).") order by atdate" or die(mysql_error());

with

$get_attendance = "select * from at0310 where ecode=".$employee_data['ecode']." and atdate in ('".implode("','",$dates)."') order by atdate";

Also in the query that has been assigned to variable $get_attendance , do not add "or die(mysql_error())" ... coz that the place where query is executed.

If you really want to have that, put it after executing the query using mysql_query().

if(!$attendance_resultset) {
die(mysql_error());
}

hey.. you are genius.......... this prob solve........
i take date as a date Datatype and then dat run........ but coding part is done but the format for text file is not looking gud...........
dat is-
empcode/ename 2004-09-09 2004-08-14
but i want 1 2 3 like this .......... is it possible ?

as.bhanuprakash 2 Junior Poster · Answer 10 · 2010-03-09T17:42:27+00:00

Yes that can be done. You need to use the date() function for that.

To have Day of the month, 2 digits with leading zeros

foreach ($dates as $key => $value) {

$tabledata .= date("d",strtotime($value))." \t";

}

OR
To have Day of the month without leading zeros

foreach ($dates as $key => $value) {

$tabledata .= date("j",strtotime($value))." \t";

}
