PHP - Updating A Count In A Form
I want to write a guessing game that gives a user four tries to guess a number between 1 and 10.
The problem is that every time the user hits submit, count is reset to zero and 1 is added. Please help. Here is my code: <html> <head> <title>Guessing Game </title> </head> <h1>Guessing Game </h1> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post"> <input type="hidden" name="count" value="<?php $count++; ?>" /> <p><input type="text" name="guess" /></p> <p><input type="submit" value="Guess" /></p> </form> </body> </html> <?php $random = rand(1,10); $guess = $_POST['guess']; if ($guess >= 10) { echo"Guess has to be lower than 10"; } elseif (isset($guess) && ($guess <= 1)) { echo "Guess has to be higher than 1"; } else { if ($guess == $random) { echo "Congratulations. You Win!!!!"; $count = 4; } elseif (isset($guess) && ($guess != $random)) { echo "Try again"; $count++; } elseif (($count == 4) && ($guess != $random)) { echo "Game Over. You Lose!!!"; } } ?> Similar TutorialsI can't get my form to update the database with user personal information. Any help greatly appreciated. Upon submitting the form, it just reloads the page, no information added to the DB. I used the update statement because I want the users to be able to update the info at a later date. Not sure if that was the right thing to do. thank you.

I've got a database and I have a script that displays the values from that database in editable fields and has an update button this is that script: <?php session_start(); include("dbinfo.inc.php"); mysql_connect($servname,$dbusername,$dbpassword); @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); $query="SELECT * FROM ($newdbname) "; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); mysql_close(); $i=0; while ($i < $num) { $username=mysql_result($result,$i,"username"); $password=mysql_result($result,$i,"password"); //$real_name=mysql_result($result,$i,"real_name"); echo "$username, $password, $real_name"; ?> <form action="updated.php"> <input type="hidden" name="ud_id" value="<? echo "$id"; ?>"> Username: <input type="text" name="username" value="<? echo "$username"?>"><br> Password: <input type="text" name="password" value="<? echo "$password"?>"><br> <input type="Submit" value="Update"> </form> <?php ++$i; } ?> it passes the "updated" values to this script: <?php session_start(); include("dbinfo.inc.php"); mysql_connect($servname,$dbusername,$dbpassword); $query="INSERT $newdbname SET username (user_id, username, password)='$ud_username', password= PASSWORD('$ud_password') WHERE id='$ud_id'"; @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); mysql_query($query); echo "Record Updated"; mysql_close(); ?> I get no errors, and everything runs just fine. except it doesn't update any thing.

I am trying to retrieve info. from mySql database and update 3 textfields.
I also have 4 selects on the form that need populating during the running of the program. My problem is using console I can see the info - Customer name - but it does not appear in the text field. The onchange request in the DIV container seems to be where it fails. Here are the files I am using:

What would the best way of doing this be?
Thanks.
This topic has been moved to MySQL Help. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=331562.0 Hi All, I've searched long and hard accross the web for an answer to this and finnally given in and requesting help. Here's what i have, i have a database setup and working fine. What i would like to do is for an administrator to be able to update my users details. It may sound odd, why don't you let your users update their own details? Well the administrators are dispatchers if you like, and my users are the 'dispatchees', for want of a better word. So i would like my administrators to be able to dispatch my users with routes and my users be able to see the routes that have been dispatched to them. I've setup a login area and a page that pulls there routes off the database, depending on their login details, i.e. jack will see his routes and jill will see her's independantly. This works by me editing the appropriate columns/rows of my database using phpmyadmin. What i'd like now is for administrators (who are directed to a seperate page, with more controls) to be able to do the same as me (updating the database) but by using a php form/script. I'd like to be able to select the routes from a second table on the same database if possible, to try and keep everything tidy. So my dispatcher would select Route001 from a drop down list, this would fill in the text fields next to the route field with From To, so my dispatcher would know what route001 actually is from/ too, choose a username (now being driven from my other table) and hit dispatch. My user would login to their area, hit view dispatched routes and it would display Route 001 with the correct information. The login area was a downloaded script i modified to suit and is called Login-Redirect_v1.31_FULL Many thanks in advance, hope you can sort of understand what i want Josh PHP/MySQL ability:Novice Why am I getting this error when there are 3 Fields with 3 values?
