[FX.php List] Re: FX.php_List Digest, Vol 31, Issue 30

[Lindal, Mark]

Here is my code for selecting three random publications for an array:

$groupSize=3;
$search=new FX($serverIP,$webCompanionPort);
$search->SetDBData('PUB_Publication_.fp5','ForPHP',$groupSize);
$search->AddDBParam('BookStore_DateAdded_Find', $newdate2 , 'gte');
$search->AddSortParam('BookStore_DateAdded_Find','descend');
$searchResult=$search->FMFind();

//looking for new network tag "hot"
$tagHot=new FX($serverIP,$webCompanionPort);
$tagHot->SetDBData('PUB_Publication_.fp5','ForPHP');
$tagHot->AddDBParam("ResearchNetworkIDs", "RN018");
//Rn018 is our code for hot publications
$tagHotResult=$tagHot->FMFind();
$i=0;
foreach($tagHotResult['data'] as $key2=>$tagHotData)
    {$temparray[$i] .= $tagHotData['CatalogNumber'][0];
    $i = $i + 1 ;
    }
$randomHot = array_rand($temparray, 3);
// This picks 3 pubs randomly from those marked hot in the database.

$hotsearch=new FX($serverIP,$webCompanionPort);
$hotsearch->SetDBData('PUB_Publication_.fp5','ForPHP', $groupSize);
$hotsearch->AddDBParam("CatalogNumber", $temparray[$randomHot[0]]);
$hotsearch->AddDBParam("CatalogNumber", $temparray[$randomHot[1]]);
$hotsearch->AddDBParam("CatalogNumber", $temparray[$randomHot[2]]);
$hotsearch->AddDBParam("-lop", "or");
$hotsearchResult=$hotsearch->FMFind();
