PHP - Rows Not Being Updated With If() Statement

Hi. I am trying to figure out the best approach to pull THE most recent record for display, and ONLY the most recent one. I am really not sure how to go about doing this. Ive just started into stored procedure programming and php, but havent found anything yet on this one. Thanks.

i am a beginerr in php..
and here is my code..which shows error in the querry line..
erro goes like this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in C:\xampp\htdocs\restafinal\process_edit_page.php on line 56

and code goes like this..
echo part works well...that query line is the error line..please tell me whats the problem...

Code: [Select]
<?php



//$id=$_GET["id"];
$id= $_GET['id'];
 $menu_name= $_POST['menu_name'];

 $position= $_POST['position'];
 $visible= $_POST['visible'];
 $note= $_POST['note'];
 $content= $_POST['content'];
 
 
 //echo part works well..
echo "menu_name"; echo $menu_name;
 echo "<br/>";
 echo "position"; echo $position;
   echo "<br/>";
 echo "visible";  echo  $visible;
    echo "<br/>";
  echo "note";  echo $note;
   echo "<br/>";
echo "id"; echo $id;

echo $content;



[b]$result = mysql_query(UPDATE page SET note =$note, nevigation = $menu_name WHERE id = $id,$connection)[/b]

// test to see if the update occurred
if (mysql_affected_rows() == 1) {
// Success!



} else {
$message = "The page could not be updated.";
$message .= "<br />" . mysql_error();

I have been using an inventory application built on PHP/MySQL. Since this morning I could submit the data and they were perfectly reflected on the MySQL Table. However, for a few hours I cannot save the submitted data to the table and it doesn't show any error message. Please note no change have been made since it was successfully running. The developer of this application is not available right now.   PLEASR HELP I AM A NOVICE IN PHP/MYSQL.

I'm creating a game where 2 people, on separate computers can battle each other. I'm doing it turn-based, like Final Fantasy but I came across a problem, how do I check if the other person has ended their turn?

I was thinking that I would have an area in my database that would be true/false if it was their turn. So if the first person ends their turn, their 'turn' becomes false in the database, but how, on the other users computer, do I constantly check if the 'turn' has become false so that they may now play without having to keep updating the browser.

Or is their a better way to do something like this?

Hi guys,

I need your help. I am checking on a database as I want to see if the records have been updated or not.

        echo "already updated!";
      }
    } else {
      echo "user not found";
    }
  }
} 
?>

When I run debug the code on my php, if i input the data in a url bar while the records are the same as the data that I enter in the url, i should get the print out on my php "already updated", but I keep getting "update!".

Do you know how i can check on mysql database to see if the records have been updated or not??

I think I've gotten as far as I can with my troubleshooting so hopefully someone can help me here.
I have a constructor for a controller class that receives the $_SESSION array from index.php by reference. An instance variable is then created when references this references so that any changes made to this instance variable update the real $_SESSION variable. This was working until it mysteriously stopped after not touching it for a few hours.
The local $this->session variable is working because it completes some tasks using it. I've also hardcoded values into the session from the index.php file and when they are hard coded the session works as you would expect so it seems to just not be connecting this local variable to the $_SESSION array anymore for some reason.

index.php snippet:
Code: [Select]
session_start();
$action = 'login';
$controller = new UserController($_POST,$_SESSION);

call_user_func(array($controller,$action));

constructor and login action from UserController (constructor is actually from a base controller but that shouldn't matter).
Also the activeSession() function that checks if a session is valid and kicks the user if its not (which is what happens when anything is tried after logging in):
Code: [Select]
    function __construct($post,&$session){
        $this->post = $post;
        $this->session = &$session;
        $this->view = 'views/login.php';
        $this->title = '';
        $this->error = '';
    }

    function login(){
        try{
            $user = $this->validateString($this->post['username'],'Username');
            $pass = $this->validateString($this->post['password'],'Password');
            $dao = new UserData();
            $this->session['userid'] = $dao->login($user, $pass);
            $this->session['username']=$user;
            $dao = new PostData();
            $this->posts = $dao->getFeedPosts($this->session['userid']);
            $this->view = 'views/posts.php';
            $this->title = 'Post Feed';
        }
        catch(Exception $e){
            $this->handleException($e);
        }
    }

    function activeSession(){
        if(!empty($this->session['userid']))
            return true;
        else return false;
    }


Any help would be amazing. I really don't know how this stopped working.
Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to get a simple javascript popup script going anytime the database is updated in real-time. I'm not sure as to what to do next, because I'm still a newbie with jQuery and ajax, but the following code is what I have right now:   PHP MySQL query page:

<?php

$con = mysqli_connect('localhost','root','root','mydb');
if (!$con) {
	die('Could not connect: ' . mysqli_error($con));
}

mysqli_select_db($con,"mydb");
$sql="SELECT * FROM incoming_calls";
$result = mysqli_query($con,$sql);

while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
	$callArray[] = array('phonenumber' => $row['phone_number'], 'id' => $row['phone_login_id']);
}
if (!empty($callArray)) {
	//echo json_encode($callArray);
	for ($i = 0; $i < count($callArray); ++$i) {
		print $callArray[$i]['id'] . ": " . $callArray[$i]['phonenumber'] . "<br>";
	}
}

mysqli_close($con);
?>

MySQL "incoming_calls" db table (I have a node.js script, that draws SMDR data from a phone system and posts it to this table):

id	phone_number	phone_login_id	date_created
3	000-000-0000	1225	        12/15/2014 14:53
6	000-000-0000	1222	        12/15/2014 14:53

Any help with this is greatly appreciated! Thanks ahead of time!

I am creating a stream page that updates automatically without the page reloading by reloading a div on the page using a timer. However, I only want it to run the update and fade in/fade out when there is a new status in the table. I tried doing it through PHP getting the number of rows in the table on the page itself and then checking the number of rows on an action page, however, the number of rows didnt update when the div was reloaded. I then tried doing it using jquery/javscript but had the same problem.

How can I acheive this?   Thanks in advance

I am trying to set the hidden input in the javascript but it doesn't set it in the php. 

This is the form with the hidden input. It corresponds to a field in the database table with the name of draggables.

<form method="post" accept-charset="utf-8" id="myForm2" action="/mealplans/add">

<input type="hidden" name="draggables" id="drag12"/>

<button id="myId" type="submit">Submit Form</button>

</form>

This is where I change the value in the javascript:

if(data == "draggable3"){
alert("data " + data);
var x = document.getElementById("drag12").value;
x =  "draggable3";
alert(x);
} //end if

                
The alert pops up with draggable3 as it should but the value of null is what gets saved in the database. The javascript doesn't change the PHP value; it only changes the client side value.         

I've also tried getElementsByName but that didn't work either.

var y = document.getElementsByName("draggables").value;    //only changes it on the client

This is actually a cakephp site but this problem is with the PHP so I am publishing it here.

I have 2 queries that I want to join together to make one row  

I'm having issues with the following:

Code: [Select]
<?php
session_start();

I can log-in, and get to the page with the two links on it. However, once I click one of the links it falls back to the log-in page, and it ends up being a never ending loop.

It's doing this:
Log-In --> Page with links ---> Log-In page again

Should be doing this:
Log-In --> Page with links --> Add Product page or View Products page

I can never get into the the actual sub page.

Just to be clear, the address bar actually shows product=add or product=view, but it still shows the log-in page.

Well I have a script that executes a scan on a system set to run infinitely, and I need it to echo out a message each time it loops through, but I don't want it to echo out the message with the next loop message below it, and the next one below that etc... I've tried using the flush(); function and been messing around with that with no luck. For security reasons I don't want to release any of the processing code, but here is the basic construction of the script:

<?PHP
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
$RepeatIt = -1;
for($g=1; $g!=$RepeatIt+1; $g++)
{
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***

$ScanMessage = ":.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: ".$MobName." (SCAN #$g) :.:.:"."<br/><br/>";
echo $ScanMessage;

***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
***PROCESSING AND SCAN CODE***
}
?>

At the moment it's returning:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #1) :.:.:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #2) :.:.:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #3) :.:.:

:.:.: SCANNING THE HITLIST FOR MOBSTER: DEUS EX DESTROYER (SCAN #4) :.:.:

So what I want it to do is just delete the scanning message and replace it with the next scan message so while running this script you would see just the number increment on the same line.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

My script is finally working as intended, but I want to add some additional data results.

I am trying to resolve how I can display a count of ONLY the records updated by my query:

// START :: Query to replace matches
mysql_query("UPDATE orig_codes_1a AS a
      JOIN old_and_new_codes_1a AS b ON concat(a.orig_code_1, a.orig_code_2) = concat(b.old_code_1, b.old_code_2)
   SET a.orig_code_1 = b.new_code_1,
                           a.orig_code_2 = b.new_code_2") or die(mysql_error());
// END :: Query to replace matches


In this query I count ALL records selection:


// START :: Create query to be displayed as final results of original codes table.
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM orig_codes_1a") 
or die(mysql_error());  

I want to display a count on this part of the query:

....concat(a.orig_code_1, a.orig_code_2) = concat(b.old_code_1, b.old_code_2)....
