PHP - Not Updating Database
why does this code not update database.....any errors you see off the bat? none of the messages are displaying for whether it posts or not......so I think there is something wrong with posting or a loop or something.
Code: [Select] <?php session_start(); include "config2.php"; if (!isset($_SESSION['id'])) { echo 'Please <a href="login.php">log in</a> to access your account'; exit(); } //Connect to the database through our include include_once "connect_to_mysql.php"; // Place Session variable 'id' into local variable $userid = $_SESSION['id']; ?> <?php //action: view users ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- if (isset($_GET['viewUsers'])) { //get all active users $query = "SELECT name, username, phone, address, city, state, zip, cell, email, accounttype, badges, password, rank, userid FROM members WHERE userid=userid"; $rs = mysql_query($query); ?> <table width="563" border='1'> <tr> <th width="54">Name</th><th width="84">Username</th><th width="47">Email</th> <th width="148">Access Level</th> <th width="105"> </th> <th width="85"> </th> </tr> <?php //show the users while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs)) { ?> <tr> <td><?php echo $row['name'];?></td> <td><?php echo $row['username'];?></td> <td><?php echo $row['email'];?></td> <td><?php echo $row['accounttype']?></td> <td> </td> <td><a href='admin.php?edit&id=<?php echo $row['userid'];?>'>Edit</a>, <a href='admin.php?delete&id=<?php echo $row['userid'];?>'>Delete</a></td> </tr> <?php } ?> </table> <?php } //action: edit user ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- if (isset($_GET['edit']) && isset($_GET['id'])) { $userid = (int) $_GET['id']; if ($userid == 0) { die("Invalid ID provided."); } //execution when completed the edit user form and pressed submit button --------------------- if (isset($_POST['editUser'])) { //validate data ------------------------------------------------------------------------ //check empty fields $notRequired = array("email","phone","address", "city", "state","zip","cell" ); //passwords won't be checked, as they are not required foreach ($_POST as $k=>$v) { if ($v == "" && !in_array($k,$notRequired)) { $error[$k] = "<strong>This field is empty</strong>"; } } //escape string $name = "mysql_real_escape_string{$_POST['fname']} {$_POST['last']}"; $phone = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['phone']); $address = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['address']); $city = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['city']); $state = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['state']); $zip = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['zip']); $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); $cell = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['cell']); $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $last = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['last']); $first = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['fname']); //check email validation, the function is available at config.php //check username exists in database $res = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM members WHERE username='".$username."'

I have the code below where the data is generated form another page. The correct data is displayed but for some reason when I try to alter any data it does not work. I simply get the message, "Your profile has been successfully updated..." but nothing has been changed in the database. I think the code is not connecting to the correct table in the database.. I fail to see why this would be. Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi I am trying my first OOP update. I have it working exactly as I want except for one thing. For some reason if I try to update the database with the same information (every column exactly the same) it returns 0 affected rows. is there anyway of getting the database to update, even if all columns are exactly the same? Code: Code: [Select] $membershipID = Profile_membership::find_membership_ID($UID); $MID = $membershipID->id; $new_member = Profile_membership::make($MID, $UID, $acc_type, $membership, $upgradeL, $date, $dateUpgraded); if($new_member && $new_member->save()){ $flag = 1; }else{ $message .= "Error: Sorry, there was an error creating your membership. <br> Please try again<br>"; $flag = 0; } $new_member->save() will create the database entry if no ID exists, and will update if an ID does exist. So, I want the save() to return success. If it does, move on else give an error. However, I'm getting the error, if a user accidentally clicks submit, when no fields have been changed. I what it to still update, so $flag will be 1 Thanks I am trying to update last logged in entry in the database upon succesful login. I may be way off in the logic here or I may be missing something simple. I don't get any errors and it logs in fine. Just does not update the lastvisit field in the database. Code: [Select] //record date of most recent login $result = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM users WHERE user_id ='".$_SESSION['userId'] . "'"); $dtCreated = date('Y-m-d'); mysql_query("UPDATE users SET lastvisit=('$dtCreated') WHERE username = $result"); Im not to sure what I have done wrong here, I have tried a few }'s in places incase I have missed one, im still quite new to pdo so im not sure. Can anyone see why it isnt updating the database? Cheers Code: [Select] <?php if ($enemy_hp <= 0) { $sql = "UPDATE game_status SET battle = '1' WHERE id=1"; } else { $sql = "UPDATE game_character SET current_hp = (current_hp-100) WHERE id=1"; $statement = $dbh->prepare($sql); $statement->execute(); } ?> Here is my code to update a blog entry.

Basically, I have a table based PHP form in my html page that loops and adds a new row to the table depending on my variables The table itself displays the amount of 'squads' you have, the name of the individual squads, how many people are in your squad, and an 'add button': Your Squads: | People | Form Button Squad 'name' | 2/5 | Add More? Squad 'name' | 3/5 | Add More? Squad 'name' | 1/5 | Add More? Etc ..... Code for this table: Code: [Select] <p><strong> Add Soliders To Squads:</strong> <br />Soliders avalible: <? echo $solidersToAdd ?> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']?>" method="post"> <table width="500" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <?PHP $max = $squadNumbers - 1; $i = 0; while($i <= $max){ $print = $i + 1; echo"<tr>"; echo"<td width=\"200\" height=\"30\"><strong>Squad: ".$names_split[$i]."</strong></td>"; echo"<td width=\"200\" height=\"30\">".$content_split[$i]."/5</td>"; if($content_split[$i] != 5){ echo"<td height=\"30\">"; echo"<input name=\"submitAdd\" type=\"submit\" class=\"SquadWeaponSelector\" id=\"submitAdd_".$i."\" value=\"Add (".$solidersToAdd.")\" /></td>"; } else{ echo"<td height=\"30\">Squad is full</td>"; } $i++; } ?> </table> </form> This all works fine, but its the action form I'm struggling with, what I want is to be able to add a person to the specific squad the user pushed the button for and add to the database. NOTE: my database stores the content (players in squad) like so: 2,3,1 as a varchar and I use explode to split it into an array (this is the same with my squad names too). So here is a snippet of what I got at the top of my document, the form action: Code: [Select] $squadNumbers = $info['squadNumbers']; // = 3 $squadNames = $info['squadNames']; // = Alpha,Beta,Oscar $squadContent = $info['squadContent']; // = 2,3,1 // split the squad content \\ $content_split = explode(",", $squadContent); // split the squad names \\ $names_split = explode(",", $squadNames); $solidersToAdd = 3; // will soon be retrieving off DB if (isset($_POST['submitAdd']) && $solidersToAdd != 0) { $i = 0; $max = $squadNumbers - 1; $newContentArray = array(); while($i <= $max){ $print = $i + 1; $newContentArray[whatever button was pressed] = 1 + $squadContent[whatever button was pressed]; $i++; } //$solidersToAdd--; $glueContent = $_POST['submitAdd_1']; //implode(",",$newContentArray); $result = mysql_query("UPDATE users SET squadContent='$glueContent' WHERE username = '$username'") or die(mysql_error()); } First of, I dont know how to have a button actually pass on a value such as '+1', and I need it to talk specifically to that squad. I would appreciate any help, many thanks in advance. Have started to program my own cricket management game and wish to have the database update every 60 seconds; this is to facilitate players who are not watching the actual game. Games are starting (and finishing) at all times so it is not possible to allow the user to be the only one to activate the game code; it is also not possible to only play the games when the human players are online because other games depend on the results. The only answer I can think of at the moment is to have a copy of firefox running on the server which runs the PHP code to update all current games and have this page automatically refresh every 60 seconds. Is this even viable? Any other suggestions?

Any ideas? Hi All, Whenever I try to update any piece of PHP code to update a MySQL database, nothing happens. I have tried copying in some of the working codes of a website and tried the same, but no success. I recently installed XAMPP. I am connecting using the correct user id and pass to the database. The scripts are not giving me any error, but just not connecting, that's all. While making such a usage as noted below <FORM name="form1" method="post" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" > I get the following error Firefox can't find the file at /C:/xampp/htdocs/="<?php.. so on Why does this happen? I am pretty new to this, so please do help. Thanks, Satheesh P R |
