Simple PHP Calendar

In:
12Nov2009

I was searching today for a pre-made script for a simple php calendar and after a bit of search I've found this.

The code is a bit old, and the author's website doesn't seem to work anymore, so I decided to clean it up a bit.
You can see the result below.

  1. <?php
  2. // This gets today's date
  3. $date = time ();
  4.  
  5. // This puts the day, month, and year in seperate variables
  6. $day  = date('d', $date);
  7. $month= date('m', $date);
  8. $year = date('Y', $date);
  9.  
  10. // Here we generate the first day of the month
  11. $first_day = mktime(0,0,0,$month, 1, $year);
  12.  
  13. //This gets us the month name
  14. $title = date('F', $first_day);
  15.  
  16. //Here we find out what day of the week the first day of the month falls on
  17. $day_of_week = date('D', $first_day);
  18.  
  19. //Once we know what day of the week it falls on, we know how many blank days occure before it. If the first day of the week is a Sunday then it would be zero
  20. switch($day_of_week) {
  21.   case "Sun": $blank = 0; break;
  22.   case "Mon": $blank = 1; break;
  23.   case "Tue": $blank = 2; break;
  24.   case "Wed": $blank = 3; break;
  25.   case "Thu": $blank = 4; break;
  26.   case "Fri": $blank = 5; break;
  27.   case "Sat": $blank = 6; break;
  28. }
  29.  
  30. // We then determine how many days are in the current month
  31. $days_in_month = cal_days_in_month(0, $month, $year);
  32. ?>
  33.  
  34. <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
  35.   <tr>
  36.     <th colspan="7"><?php print $month; ?> <?php print $year; ?></th>
  37.   </tr>
  38.   <tr>
  39.     <td>Sun</td>
  40.     <td>Mon</td>
  41.     <td>Tue</td>
  42.     <td>Wed</td>
  43.     <td>Thu</td>
  44.     <td>Fri</td>
  45.     <td>Sat</td>
  46.   </tr>
  47.    <?php $day_count = 1;// This counts the days in the week, up to 7 ?>
  48.   <tr>
  49.   <?php while ($blank > 0): //first we take care of those blank days ?>
  50.     <td>&nbsp;</td> <?php $blank = $blank-1; $day_count++; ?>
  51.   <?php endwhile; ?>
  52.   <?php $day_num = 1; //sets the first day of the month to 1 ?>  
  53.  
  54.   <?php while ($day_num <= $days_in_month): //count up the days, until we've done all of them in the month ?>
  55.     <td><?php print $day_num; ?></td>
  56.     <?php $day_num++; $day_count++; ?>
  57.     <?php if ($day_count > 7): //Make sure we start a new row every week ?>
  58.   </tr>
  59.   <tr>
  60.     <?php $day_count = 1; ?>
  61.     <?php endif; ?>
  62.   <?php endwhile; ?>
  63.    
  64.   <?php while ($day_count >1 && $day_count <=7): //Finaly we finish out the table with some blank details if needed ?>
  65.     <td>&nbsp;</td>
  66.     <?php $day_count++; ?>
  67.   <?php endwhile; ?>
  68.   </tr>

Simple PHP Tag Cloud (CodeIgniter)

In:
28Aug2008

Here's my simple tagCloud Codeigniter php script
video_to_tag table is a many_to_many relationship table.

I know that this code can be improved but right now it's a nice starting point.

  1. public function tagCloud($nr_entries)
  2. {
  3.  
  4.     $this->db->select('COUNT(video_to_tag.tag_id) as tag_entries,
  5.  
  6.                       tags.tag_name')
  7.  
  8.              ->from('video_to_tag')
  9.  
  10.              ->join('tags', 'tags.tag_id = video_to_tag.tag_id', 'inner')
  11.  
  12.              ->group_by('tags.tag_name')
  13.  
  14.              ->order_by('tags.tag_id')
  15.  
  16.              ->limit($nr_entries,0);   
  17.  
  18.     $result = $this->db->get();
  19.  
  20.    
  21.  
  22.     if (0 < $result->num_rows())
  23.     {
  24.  
  25.         $result = $result->result();
  26.  
  27.         $tags = array();
  28.        
  29.         // order the tags array
  30.  
  31.         foreach ($result as $entry)
  32.         {
  33.             $tags[$entry->tag_name] = $entry->tag_entries;
  34.         }            
  35.  
  36.  
  37.  
  38.         $max_size = 250; // max font size in %
  39.  
  40.         $min_size = 100; // min font size in %
  41.  
  42.  
  43.  
  44.         // get the largest and smallest array values
  45.  
  46.         $max_qty = max(array_values($tags));
  47.  
  48.         $min_qty = min(array_values($tags));
  49.  
  50.  
  51.  
  52.         // find the range of values
  53.  
  54.         $spread = $max_qty - $min_qty;
  55.  
  56.         if (0 == $spread) // we don't want to divide by zero
  57.         {
  58.             $spread = 1;
  59.         }
  60.  
  61.  
  62.  
  63.         // determine the font-size increment
  64.  
  65.         // this is the increase per tag quantity (times used)
  66.  
  67.         $step = ($max_size - $min_size)/($spread);
  68.  
  69.        
  70.  
  71.         // init the url helper
  72.  
  73.         $this->load->helper('url');
  74.  
  75.         // init the tag cloud
  76.  
  77.         $tag_cloud = '';
  78.  
  79.         // loop through our tag array
  80.  
  81.         foreach ($tags as $key => $value)
  82.         {
  83.             // calculate CSS font-size
  84.  
  85.             // find the $value in excess of $min_qty
  86.  
  87.             // multiply by the font-size increment ($size)
  88.  
  89.             // and add the $min_size set above
  90.  
  91.             $size = $min_size + (($value - $min_qty) * $step);
  92.  
  93.  
  94.  
  95.             $url_attributes = array('title' => "{$value} things tagged with {$key}",
  96.  
  97.                                     'style' => "font-size: {$size}%");
  98.  
  99.             $tag_cloud .= anchor('tag/'.url_title($key), $key, $url_attributes) . '&nbsp;';
  100.  
  101.          }
  102.  
  103.          
  104.  
  105.          return $tag_cloud;
  106.
