I am in learnig process of php hoping to find some directions here on stack.
I am tring to write a simpe script that can output an individual pdf for all the rows of a specific table
Here is my script i get the $html variable printed on pdF but only 1 file and 1 row. Then the other problem is when i try to output the file instead of displaying it on browser I get this error.
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'FPDF error: Incorrect output destination: ./output/pdf_ganesh.pdf' in C:\xampp\htdocs\crud\Classes\fpdf.php:271 Stack trace: #0 C:\xampp\htdocs\crud\Classes\fpdf.php(1028): FPDF->Error('Incorrect outpu...') #1 C:\xampp\htdocs\crud\makepdf.php(38): FPDF->Output('./output/pdf_ga...') #2 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\crud\Classes\fpdf.php on line 271
I would like the output to be in the project in a specific folder.
Thanks ahead.
<?php
$databaseHost = 'localhost';
$databaseName = 'test';
$databaseUsername = 'root';
$databasePassword = '';
$db = mysqli_connect($databaseHost, $databaseUsername, $databasePassword, $databaseName);
require('./Classes/fpdf.php');
$users = mysqli_query($db, "SELECT * FROM users ORDER BY id DESC");
foreach ($users as $user) {
$pdf = new FPDF('P','mm','A4');
$pdf->AddPage();
$on_id=$user['id'];
$on_name=$user['name'];
$on_age=$user['age'];
$on_email=$user['email'];
$on_safe_name=strtolower(str_replace(' ', '_', $on_name));
$on_filename="pdf_$on_safe_name.pdf";
$html = $on_name.'</br>'.$on_age.'</br>'.$on_email;
}
$pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',16);
$pdf->Write(5, $html);
$pdf->Output('./output/'.$on_filename);
?>
The error seems to be pointing to this line
$pdf->Output('./output/'.$on_filename);
