Problem with FPDF

[papadammy]

Good day Mr. Moderator,
Please I’m having problem displaying database data in my fpdf. I created the pdf document using fpdf and everything about that is working fine. The challenge now arise from here:
I have a class called JobCardManager which manages the jobcard. Anytime I want to create a pdf format of the job card from my database, i make this call shown below when Print JC button is clicked on a web form:

//Print out the Job Card
elseif(isset($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'Print JC')
{
	$results['jobcards'] = JobCardManager::getJobCardById( (int)$_POST['id'] );
    
    $action = 'printJobCard';
	$id = $results['jobcards']->id;
	$repairId = $results['jobcards']->repairId;
	$openDate = $results['jobcards']->openDate;
	$openTime = $results['jobcards']->openTime;
	$repairTime = $results['jobcards']->repairTime;
	$repairOrderType = $results['jobcards']->repairOrderType;
	$section = $results['jobcards']->section;
	$pryRepairOrderNo = $results['jobcards']->pryRepairOrderNo;
	$preparedBy = $results['jobcards']->preparedBy;
	$promDelDate = $results['jobcards']->promDelDate;
	$promDelTime = $results['jobcards']->promDelTime;
	$revisedDelDate = $results['jobcards']->revisedDelDate;
	$revisedDelTime = $results['jobcards']->revisedDelTime;
	$kmIn = $results['jobcards']->kmIn;
	$kmOut = $results['jobcards']->kmOut;
	$mt = $results['jobcards']->mt;
	$at = $results['jobcards']->at;
	$estimateRef = $results['jobcards']->estimateRef;
	$contractorCustomer = $results['jobcards']->contractorCustomer;
	$splPackage = $results['jobcards']->splPackage;
	$estimateDate = $results['jobcards']->estimateDate;
	$others = $results['jobcards']->others;
	$lubServices = $results['jobcards']->lubServices;
	$noj1 = $results['jobcards']->noj1;
	$noj2 = $results['jobcards']->noj2;
	$noj3 = $results['jobcards']->noj3;
	$noj4 = $results['jobcards']->noj4;
	$noj5 = $results['jobcards']->noj5;
	$noj6 = $results['jobcards']->noj6;
	$noj7 = $results['jobcards']->noj7;
	$noj8 = $results['jobcards']->noj8;
	$noj9 = $results['jobcards']->noj9;
	$noj10 = $results['jobcards']->noj10;
	$opCode1 = $results['jobcards']->opCode1;
	$opCode2 = $results['jobcards']->opCode2;
	$opCode3 = $results['jobcards']->opCode3;
	$opCode4 = $results['jobcards']->opCode4;
	$opCode5 = $results['jobcards']->opCode5;
	$opCode6 = $results['jobcards']->opCode6;
	$opCode7 = $results['jobcards']->opCode7;
	$opCode8 = $results['jobcards']->opCode8;
	$opCode9 = $results['jobcards']->opCode9;
	$opCode10 = $results['jobcards']->opCode10;
	$rco1 = $results['jobcards']->rco1;
	$rco2 = $results['jobcards']->rco2;
	$rco3 = $results['jobcards']->rco3;
	$rco4 = $results['jobcards']->rco4;
	$rco5 = $results['jobcards']->rco5;
	$rco6 = $results['jobcards']->rco6;
	$rco7 = $results['jobcards']->rco7;
	$rco8 = $results['jobcards']->rco8;
	$rco9 = $results['jobcards']->rco9;
	$rco10 = $results['jobcards']->rco10;
	$labour = $results['jobcards']->labour;
	$parts = $results['jobcards']->parts;
	$tba = $results['jobcards']->tba;
	$gasAndOil = $results['jobcards']->gasAndOil;
	$sublet = $results['jobcards']->sublet;
	$others2 = $results['jobcards']->others2;
	$total = $results['jobcards']->total;
	$discountLabour = $results['jobcards']->discountLabour;
	$discountParts = $results['jobcards']->discountParts;
	$services = $results['jobcards']->services;
	$others = $results['jobcards']->others;
	$lubServices = $results['jobcards']->lubServices;
	$warrantyLabour = $results['jobcards']->warrantyLabour;
	$warrantyParts = $results['jobcards']->warrantyParts;
	$vat = $results['jobcards']->vat;
	$netAmountPayable = $results['jobcards']->netAmountPayable;
	
	  include 'pdf.php';
      exit();
  
}

The Print JC button actually calls this code from the JobCardManager class:

public static function getJobCardById( $id ) {
		$conn = DatabaseManager::getConnection();
		$sql = "SELECT *, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(openDate) AS openDate, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(promDelDate) AS promDelDate, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(revisedDelDate) AS revisedDelDate, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(estimateDate) AS estimateDate FROM jobcard WHERE id = :id";
		$st = $conn->prepare( $sql );
		$st->bindValue( ":id", $id, PDO::PARAM_INT );
		$st->execute();
		$row = $st->fetch();
		$conn = null;
		if ( $row ) return new JobCardManager( $row );
	}

My generated pdf is working fine when I display normal data embedded in it directly but when I tried to output the value of $openDate inside it, it gave me this error:

Notice: Undefined variable: openDate in C:\wamp\www\me\customers\pdf.php on line 32

I tried to output the database data called when Print JC is pressed in another html/php page and it displayed my data rightly. What am I doing wrong with this fpdf doc? How do I output the database info into the generated pdf? Thanks in advance.

What does your pdf.php look like, can you at least post the line in question? and any variables you may have defined at the top of the pdf.php script?

[rpkamp]

I don’t see the point of doing it, but if you want to have all vars in the global scope with all those lines like

$id = $results['jobcards']->id;

you can also just use

extract(get_object_vars($results['jobcards']));

to replace all the lines you have there. I.e., it just becomes

//Print out the Job Card
elseif(isset($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'Print JC')
{
    $results['jobcards'] = JobCardManager::getJobCardById( (int)$_POST['id'] );
    
    $action = 'printJobCard';
    extract(get_object_vars($results['jobcards']));
    include 'pdf.php';
    exit();
}

This is where I will agree with @ScallioXTX ; and say you shouldn’t be creating individual variables. Instead pass your JobManager object to your PDF class so it has access to the variable and its properties.

To recap,
Add private variable and Update the constructor

private $jobManager;
function __constructor($jobManager, $orientation='L', $unit='mm', $size='A4') 
{ 
    // Call parent constructor 
    $this->jobManager = $jobManager;
    $this->FPDF($orientation,$unit,$size); 

} 

Pass it in

$pdf = new PDF($results['jobcards']); 

Now you can reference your JobManager data using inside your PDF functions

$this->jobManager->openDate;

My mentors, I really appreciate you guys, I have it working now and I’ve learnt a lot from you guys. Please one more challenge, how do I display date in a correct format in the pdf document? Thanks so much, men.

[cpradio]

By probably using the [fphp]date[/fphp] command.
Example:

date("F j, Y", $this->jobManager->openDate)
