If I replace the variables with values, the function works fine, but not with variables. Code: [Select] function updateCandidate($id, $F_Name, $L_Name, $Gender, $Bday, $PhoneNo, $Address, $City, $Country, $Nationality, $experience, $Stat) { $q = "UPDATE candidates SET F_Name = '$F_Name', L_Name='$L_Name', Gender='$Gender', Bday='$Bday', PhoneNo='$PhoneNo', Address = '$Address', City='$City', Country = '$Country', Nationality = '$Nationality', Experience_idExperience='$experience', Status= $Stat WHERE Users_UsersID = $id"; return mysql_query($q, $this->connection); Hello, I have a form where individuals can update there personal information that is already stored in a database, i.e name, address, phone number etc. There are several fields they can update. Right now it sends an email to the owner that an individual has updated their records, and sends all the fields that are in the table. Is it possible to let the owner be notified by email which individual field was updated? Example their phone number has changed they make the update and the owner gets an e-mail with just that field update. I hope I explained myself properly. Thank you in advance. Hi guys, I have had to make some changes to a database that I updated hockey players stats with. Since doing this I can no longer edit player stats in my admin section of the website. I was wondering if someone could possibly have a look at it for me. It is driving me nuts not being able to fix it. What should happen is: I choose the player from a list of teams to update. Their stats show up on next page in a table for the different competitions they play in (league, cup, play-offs). I could then update the stats and then once pressing the edit button at the bottom, this then updates my SQL database. Can anyone help? <?php if ($stat==1) { // normal players $table = "players"; } else { // snl_players $table ="snl_players"; } if ($act==edit) { $query11 = "SELECT * FROM `$table` WHERE `PlayerID` = '$PlayerID'";

Jo I am caught between a rock and a hard place here... My update page (to update an existing entity in the database) is a normal selection page, which then directs you to the page where you can update or change the data (1st srcipt snippet below), up to here everything works well, but on submit the page must be directed to a page that verifies the data (2nd script snippet below) and if correct, update the database or redirect to the 2nd page to correct the faulty data entry - easy right (well I have been struggling to get this working for 2 days straight. Pleeaaaaase Help.

Now everything works as it should until the data from the form (on the edit target page) should be updated in the database. I require that the user must update at least one field. For example they may want to extend the completion date so I would only want to update the completion date field in the database and the fields the user left blank should not be updated in the database. The problem I am having is regardless of if the user enter a value into the field it updates the database so if the user leaves a field blank it updates the database will a blank value. Here is my code: //If the user clicks the update button on a WEIGHT LOSS target run the following code to update the database if(isset($_POST['target_weight_loss_update'])){ $target_weight_loss_update = $_POST['target_weight_loss_update']; $weight_loss_complete_update = $_POST['weight_loss_complete_update']; $weight_loss_comment_update = $_POST['weight_loss_comment_update']; $weight_loss_user_id_update = $_POST['weight_loss_user_id_update']; //Check that at least one value has been entered into the form if(empty($target_weight_loss_update) && empty($weight_loss_complete_update) && empty($weight_loss_comment_update)){ $error_msg = 'Please enter at least one value to update your '.$target_type.' target'; } //Check to see what variables have values in them so we know what fields to update in datebase //If the user has entered a value for their TARGET WEIGHT LOSS update that value in the database if(isset($target_weight_loss_update) || !empty($target_weight_loss_update)){ $target_weight_loss_update_sql = mysql_query("UPDATE user_targets SET target_weight='$target_weight_loss_update' WHERE id='$target_id' LIMIT 1") or die (mysql_error()); //Check that the update was successful if($target_weight_loss_update_sql){ $error_msg = 'Target '.$target_type.' updated successfully'; } else { $error_msg = 'Could not update target. Please try again.'; } } //If the user has entered a value for their TARTGET WEIGHT LOSS DATE update that value in the database if(isset($weight_loss_complete_update) || !empty($weight_loss_complete_update)){ $weight_loss_completion_date_sql = mysql_query("UPDATE user_targets SET target_date='$weight_loss_complete_update' WHERE id='$target_id' LIMIT 1") or die (mysql_error()); //Check that the update was successful if($weight_loss_completion_date_sql){ $error_msg = 'Target '.$target_type.' updated successfully'; } else { $error_msg = 'Could not update target. Please try again.'; } } //If the user has entered a value for their TARGET WEIGHT LOSS COMMENT update that value in the database if(isset($weight_loss_comment_update) || !empty($weight_loss_comment_update)){ $weight_loss_comment_update_sql = mysql_query("UPDATE user_targets SET extra_info='$weight_loss_comment_update' WHERE id='$target_id' LIMIT 1") or die (mysql_error()); //Check that the update was successful if($weight_loss_comment_update_sql){ $error_msg = 'Target '.$target_type.' updated successfully'; } else { $error_msg = 'Could not update target. Please try again.'; } } } So the question I ask is how can I stop entering blank values into the database and only update the information the user enters into the form? Also I was thinking of having one mysql query at the end and using the IF statements to build the query. Thoughts? Thanks for any advice.

I've installed easy php and using phpMyAdmin I have setup a database for a list of employees in an office, I have managed to get some help to return this information to a webpage using some php and sql, but now I want people to be able to go on the site and update their status (either in or out), any help would be great.
