MySQL Report generation in PHP. http://www.weberdev.com/get_example.php3?count=3720 Hi friends, I am back again with another very useful piece of code. MySQL has no easy report generation tool as Oracle has, so its always developers who have to do this. The following code helps you in developing reports for the MySQL Database. The code has been tested by me and is working perfectly at http:// galileo.tamucc.edu/~sri/PDF/pdfreportdemo.php Please let me know if there is some problem with this code. I'll be glad to help you. Please take care of the broken lines they mess your code a lot. If you indent them properly and run the script with the few changes required to do, I am sure it would run perfectly. Thank you, Srikanth Turaga. PSS: One of the members on the site has requested me to send some more stuff on PDF file generation using FPDF. I didn't expect to come up with such a good code. Finally thanks to Philip Clarke. <?php define('FPDF_FONTPATH','yourdirectorypath/FPDF/font/'); require('yourdirectorypath/FPDF/fpdf.php'); class PDF extends FPDF { var $tablewidths; var $headerset; var $footerset; function _beginpage($orientation) { $this->page ; if(!$this->pages[$this->page]) // solved the problem of overwriting a page, if it already exists $this->pages[$this->page]=''; $this->state=2; $this->x=$this->lMargin; $this->y=$this->tMargin; $this->lasth=0; $this->FontFamily=''; //Page orientation if(!$orientation) $orientation=$this->DefOrientation; else { $orientation=strtoupper($orientation{0}); if($orientation!=$this->DefOrientation) $this->OrientationChanges[$this->page]=true; } if($orientation!=$this->CurOrientation) { //Change orientation if($orientation=='P') { $this->wPt=$this->fwPt; $this->hPt=$this->fhPt; $this->w=$this->fw; $this->h=$this->fh; } else { $this->wPt=$this->fhPt; $this->hPt=$this->fwPt; $this->w=$this->fh; $this->h=$this->fw; } $this->PageBreakTrigger=$this->h-$this->bMargin; $this->CurOrientation=$orientation; } } function Header() { global $maxY; // Check if header for this page already exists if(!$this->headerset[$this->page]) { foreach($this->tablewidths as $width) { $fullwidth = $width; } $this->SetY(($this->tMargin) - ($this->FontSizePt/$this->k)*2); $this->cellFontSize = $this->FontSizePt ; $this->SetFont('Arial','',( ( $this->titleFontSize) ?
