PHP - Pulling Data From Mysql Database (this Today/week/month)

Good evening,

This has been bugging me for 24 hours now. I have created 2 web applications. The first one is the dummy, and the second one is the final. Basically, this two web applications does the same, just a few modifications made on the final one. I have a process of pulling out of information from the database should the user would want to modify a field. I have a problem though, the dummy one works perfectly, but the new one don't. In fact, if I use the dummy php file together with the new files, the dummy won't be working. But if I use it together with the old files, it works perfectly fine.

This is the error I am getting:


Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in C:\xampp\htdocs\invent-asia\edit_client.php on line 46

Can anyone help me solve this issue? This is the only feature in my project that is left bugged

Your quick response is well appreciated. Thank you very much

Code: [Select]
id: 20 Reason: this is a test
id: 21 Reason: Tests

id: 36 Reason: Test
As you can see on the 2nd code box there are id's 20,21,22 and 36 in the database the rest are not active in the database.

i am using using Code: [Select]
for to pull out the id that starts with the lowest value in the database, and only have it run until it gets to the maximum value.
Code: [Select]
for ($id=$set_min; $set_max<=7; $id++)
{
                // $id=$set_min is pulling the smallest value and $set_max is pulling the maximum value so it stops  after it gets to 36
$query=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM posted WHERE id = $id");
$query_row=mysql_fetch_array($query);

$reason = $query_row[reason];
$pulled_id = $query_row[id];
$pulled_pic22 = $query_row[picture];
$href_pull = "<a href=" . "search.php?id=" . "$id" .">";

echo "<td>" . $href_pull . "<img src=$pulled_pic22 height=200 width=150 />" . "</td>";
}

how would i make it so i do not pull the values 23-35 which are not in the active database.

Hey!

I have it so users can submit info to my site. They have to check some check boxes and radio buttons. I want them to be able to edit this information, so I want to have the data pulled from the MySQL database and have the correct radio button selected (and the text bolded). So I'm thinking some sort of array to check for each value in the database... but I don't really know.

There are a few groups of radio boxes and check boxes but here is an example of one.

Code: [Select]
<input type="radio" name="stage" value="Stage 1" /> Stage 1
 <input type="radio" name="stage" value="Stage 2" /> Stage 2
 <input type="radio" name="stage" value="Stage 3" /> Stage 3

The information is pulled from the database like this:

Code: [Select]
$res=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM ACTIVE WHERE INDEX_ID=$id");
if(mysql_num_rows($res)==0) echo "There is no data in the table <br /> <br />";
else
{
 for($i=0;$i<mysql_num_rows($res);$i++)
 {
  $row=mysql_fetch_assoc($res);
 }
}

So when I pull information (lets say I want to echo it) it'd look like this:

Code: [Select]
$row[STAGE]
The value for the stage selection can only be Stage 1, Stage 2 or Stage 3 so I need it to be selected when the page loads.

Thanks!

(continuing from topic title)
So if I set a date of July 7 2011 into my script, hard coded in, I would like the current date to be checked against the hard coded date, and return true if the current date is within a week leading up to the hard coded date.

How could I go about doing this easily?

I've been researching dates in php but I can't seem to work out the best way to achieve what I'm after.

Hello to all,

I have problem figuring out how to properly display data fetched from MySQL database in a HTML table.

In the below example I am using two while loops, where the second one is nested inside first one, that check two different expressions fetching data from tables found in a MySQL database. The second expression compares the two tables IDs and after their match it displays the email of the account holder in each column in the HTML table.

The main problem is that the 'email' row is displayed properly while its while expression is not nested and alone(meaning the other data is omitted or commented out), but either nested or neighbored to the first while loop, it is displayed horizontally and the other data ('validity', 'valid_from', 'valid_to') is not displayed.'

Can someone help me on this, I guess the problem lies in the while loop?
Here is part of the HTML code:

<thead>
 <tr>
 <th data-column-id="id" data-type="numeric">ID</th>
 <th data-column-id="email">Subscriber's Email</th>
 <th data-column-id="validity">Validity</th>
<th data-column-id="valid_from">Valid From</th>
 <th data-column-id="valid_to">Valid To</th>
</tr>
</thead>

Here is part of the PHP code:

 

    <?php
    while($row = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC))
    {
        echo '
            <tr>
                <td>'.$row["id"].'</td>
        ';
        while ($row1 = $stmt1->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC)) {
        echo '
                <td>'.$row1["email"].'</td>
        ';
        }
        if($row["validity"] == 1) {
            echo '<td>'.$row["validity"].' month</td>';
        }else{
            echo '<td>'.$row["validity"].' months</td>';
        }
        echo '  <td>'.$row["valid_from"].'</td>
                <td>'.$row["valid_to"].'</td>
        </tr>';
    }
    ?>

P.S. Please know that I have purposely omitted the connection part and the methods in the class that are used in this code to keep the spot of the problem as clean as possible. If you need me to rephrase the question, please ask.

Thank you.
