PHP - Help With Developing A Select Menu To Display Info From Two Mysql Tables.
I am working on a project where I want a select form to display information from a MySQL table. The select values will be different sports (basketball,baseball,hockey,football) and the display will be various players from those sports. I have set up so far two tables in MySQL. One is called 'sports' and contains two columns. Once called 'category_id' and that is the primary key and auto increments. The other column is 'sports' and contains the various sports I mentioned. For my select menu I created the following code.
<?php #connect to MySQL $conn = @mysql_connect( "localhost","uname","pw") or die( "You did not successfully connect to the DB!" ); #select the specified database $rs = @mysql_SELECT_DB ("test", $conn ) or die ( "Error connecting to the database test!"); ?> <html> <head>Display MySQL</head> <body> <form name="form2" id="form2"action="" > <select name="categoryID"> <?php $sql = "SELECT category_id, sport FROM sports ". "ORDER BY sport"; $rs = mysql_query($sql); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($rs)) { echo "<option value=\"".$row['category_id']."\">".$row['sport']."</option>\n "; } ?> </select> </form> </body> </html> this works great. I also created another table called 'players' which contains the fields 'player_id' which is the primary key and auto increments, category_id' which is the foreign key for the sports table, sport, first_name, last_name. The code I am using the query and display the desired result is as follows <html> <head> <title>Get MySQL Data</title> </head> <body> <?php #connect to MySQL $conn = @mysql_connect( "localhost","uname","pw") or die( "Err:Db" ); #select the specified database $rs = @mysql_SELECT_DB ("test", $conn ) or die ( "Err:Db"); #create the query $sql ="SELECT * FROM sports INNER JOIN players ON sports.category_id = players.category_id WHERE players.sport = 'Basketball'"; #execute the query $rs = mysql_query($sql,$conn); #write the data while( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $rs) ) { echo ("<table border='1'><tr><td>"); echo ("Caetegory ID: " . $row["category_id"] ); echo ("</td>"); echo ("<td>"); echo ( "Sport: " .$row["sport"]); echo ("</td>"); echo ("<td>"); echo ( "first_name: " .$row["first_name"]); echo ("</td>"); echo ("<td>"); echo ( "last_name: " .$row["last_name"]); echo ("</td>"); echo ("</tr></table>"); } ?> </body> </html> this also works fine. All I need to do is tie the two together so that when a particular sport is selected, the query will display below in a table. I know I need to change my WHERE clause to a variable. This is what I need help with. thanks Similar TutorialsI have a 'user' table and a display users page. How would I display them in alphabetical order by their username? Heres my current basic display page: <?php include 'dbwire.php'; include 'header.php'; $query = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM user'); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo '<b>Username:</b> ' . $row['user'] . '<br />'; echo '<b>Real Name:</b> ' . $row['name'] . '<br />'; echo '<b>Email:</b> ' . $row['email'] . '<br />'; echo '<b>Location:</b> ' . $row['location'] . '<br /> <hr>'; } ?> Theres also an id row but since user wouldn't be added alphabetically I wouldn't be able to order them by id. Hi there. I have this simple code which displays 5 results. How can i grab each element separately instead of displaying all the results at once. Thanks:) Code: [Select] <?php $query = mysql_query("SELECT product_name, product_price FROM products WHERE product_type = 'laptop' LIMIT 5"); $numrows = mysql_num_rows($query); if ($numrows != 0) { while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { $product_name = $row['product_name']; $product_price = $row['product_price']; echo $product_name . '<br />'; echo $product_price . '<br /><br />'; } } ?> Hi I have tried and tried and tried again to get this to work
in simple terms I have very little knowledge with PHP and even less with mysql
I have a paid subscription and domain in order to learn more and I feel I have made ok progress so far
then I realised how unsafe my current work is;
here is my experience this far
I created a site for a group of voluntary online game hosts where they can posts points from their tournaments in a forum
and some info pages to go with this,
however what I did was create a base template and style sheet and then an admin dashboard linked to individual forms to allow the group admin to edit the info pages they go to my form and enter the desired info and submit this then sends through and action file which posts the text and <BR> to a .txt file,
then the connecting page reads the .txt file using the PHP code of " <? php include ( 'index.txt'); ?>
yes you are seeing this correctly I have allowed a direct edit of text in a .txt file rather silly of me but I didn't realise how unsafe this was until now I guess its a good job I trust that the admin has no knowledge or skills in coding
ok since all this I have created a DB in MySQL on my server,
My server uses PHPMyAdmin I have create a DB named " mnvbcou1_content1 " and a table named " home " with rows " ID " and " home "
what I am trying to do:
I want my page to display the content of the table row home and a form once submitted to send to the table row home
or if needed I can re make this DB if the names are not suitable
I have tried to create the needed coding to make this work but for some reason this just will not work I have already added 2 rows to my table to try and make the page to display the content but it just is not working I got an error every time
so I hope that someone out there is rather patient and is willing to help me learn how to do this correctly and safely,
also this is a closed group website the address to this site is only known by a handful of none programmers I am mainly trying to make this work for my own personal knowledge and server safety please help me
Heres what i got... function printLB1 (){ $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM leaderboards ORDER BY CollegeFootballPoints DESC"); while ($row = mysql_fetch_object($result)) { $leaderboard[] = $row->Username; $leaderboardPoints[] = $row->CollegeFootballPoints; } $num = mysql_num_rows($reault); //I know from here to ................... needs to be in a var or echo or something. <tr> <td>1.</td> //This will auto increment too like i++ but i cna do that myself! <td>echo $leaderboard;</td> <td>echo $leaderboardPoints;</td> </tr> //Here......................................................... } I need to pull a table row per user.

I have a photo album style gallery to build and i'm finding it dificult to list all the table names (these are names of photo albums) and then enter the data into a seperate query for each album name (these will change often so i cant keep updating the file as normal. this will then post all the data to the xml file and show the set of photos in the individual albums in a flash file. can anyone help me where im going wrong at all? <?php $dbname = 'cablard'; if (!mysql_connect('localhost', 'cablard', '')) { echo 'Could not connect to mysql'; exit; } $sql = "SHOW TABLES FROM $dbname"; $result = mysql_query($sql); if (!$result) { echo "DB Error, could not list tables\n"; echo 'MySQL Error: ' . mysql_error(); exit; } while ($row = mysql_fetch_row($result)) { echo "Table: {$row[0]}\n"; } mysql_free_result($result); $query = "SELECT * FROM photo ORDER BY id DESC"; $result2 = mysql_query ($query) or die ("Error in query: $query.

I think this is a PHP problem though. My code for the select form including AJAX code Code: [Select] <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en-GB"> <head> <title>AJAX Example</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Form.css" media="screen" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function(){ $("tr:odd").addClass("odd"); }); </script> <script type="text/javascript"> function showPlayers(str) { var xmlhttp; if (str=="") { document.getElementById("DataDisplay").innerHTML=""; return; } if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {// code for IE7+, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari xmlhttp=new XMLHttpRequest(); else {// code for IE6, IE5 } xmlhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP"); } xmlhttp.onreadystatechange=function() { if (xmlhttp.readyState==4 && xmlhttp.status==200) { document.getElementById("DataDisplay").innerHTML=xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET","Query.php?category_id="+str,true); xmlhttp.send(); } </script> </head> <body> <h1">AJAX Example</h1> <?php #connect to MySQL $conn = @mysql_connect( "localhost","username","pw") or die( "You did not successfully connect to the DB!" ); #select the specified database $rs = @mysql_SELECT_DB ("MyDB", $conn ) or die ( "Error connecting to the database test!"); ?> <form name="sports" id="sports"> <legend>Select a Sport</legend> <select name="category_id" onChange="showPlayers(this.value)"> <option value="">Select a Sport:</option> <?php $sql = "SELECT category_id, sport FROM sports ".

When I echo out the SQL the result is Code: [Select] SELECT * FROM sports INNER JOIN players ON sports.category_id = players.category_id WHERE players.category_id = '' so the category_id is not being selected properly and that is the primary key/foreign key in the MySQL table which connects the JOIN. Hi, I have come up with the following code, I need it to get the details of several scattered products and echo the results, the trick is I don't want it to echo the results one after the other... I want to have the products scattered between unique text on the page but don't want to run the query several times for performance reasons. E.g.- PAGE to look like this: $Product_1 unique text/images $Product_2 $Product_3 unique text/images $Product_4 Current Code: Code: [Select] <? $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products where Product_ID IN (475, 465, 234, 567, 845)"); while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $x = "1"; while ($x<=3) { echo $x; $Product = "Product_"; $Product = $Product.$x; echo $Product; $Product = $row['Product_ID']; echo $Product; $x++; echo $x; } } At the moment it returns the following results: Quote 1 Product_1 465 2 2 Product_2 465 3 3 Product_3 465 4 1 Product_1 475 2 2 Product_2 475 3 3 Product_3 475 4 A few problems... In Blue... it duplicates for product 465 In Red... It repeats again for 475 Also.... it starts with 465, but I want it to go in order as how it appears - $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM products where Product_ID IN (475, 465, 234, 567, 845)"); so should start with 475 I want to get the following result: Quote 1 Product_1 475 2 2 Product_2 465 3 3 Product_3 234 4 4 Product_4 567 4 (and so on.....) If anyone could provide me assistance with my troubled 'while loop' statement that would be much appreciated! Im doing a search system and Im having some problems.
I need to search in two tables (news and pages), I already had sucess doing my search system for just one table, but for two tables its not easy to do.
I already use a select statment with two tables using UNION because I want to show number of search results, that is number of returned rows of my first sql statment.
But now I need to do a select statment that allows me to acess all fields of my news table and all fields of my pages table.
I need to acess in my news table this fields: id, title, content, link, date, nViews
I need to acess in my pages table this fields: id, title, content, link
Im trying to do this also with UNION, but in this case Im not having any row returning.
Do you see what I have wrong in my code?

I've been working on something with no luck and I'm wondering if you have any ideas. I have two tables; Members and Events. When a member logs in they are redirected to a page where I want them to be able to see a list of events that they have created based on a user ID that is common in both tables. So if the member has a memberID of 123 I want them to see any events that have the userID of 123. I used two different column names just for clarity. I've tried a number of variations on the following code: <?php session_start(); header("Cache-control: private"); // Connect to Database include ('includes/db.php'); //Has login info // If not logged in if (!$_SESSION['pkMemberID']) { echo ("<div class='box'><h2>Sorry, you are not logged in!</h2>"); exit(); } // Convert Session variable 'pkMemberID' to simple variable. $memberID = $_SESSION['memberID']; $pkMemberID = $_SESSION['pkMemberID']; $name = $_SESSION['name']; //Query Events $sql = "SELECT * FROM events WHERE userID = $memberID"; $result = mysql_query($sql); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); echo ("<div>Events:<br />"); // Event exists if (!($num_rows == 0)) { $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result); do { printf ('<span>– <a href="event_edit.php?pkEventID=%s">%s</a></span><br />', $myrow['pkEventID'], $myrow['eventName']); } while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)); } echo ("</div>"); //End Events //end page ?> Sometimes I get errors, sometimes just nothing. Any advice would be appreciated. Hi, All: I'm trying to figure out what way it's the best way to pull info belonging to a specific user based on whether he's a logged-in "member", and want to make sure he's not able to access any other member's details... would the best way be to try to match the user's "username" stored in a $_SESSION when fetching his info, something like this: Code: [Select] <?php // Assume the login combo is this: $username = $_POST['username']; $password = $_POST['password']; // Assume he has already logged in: $_SESSION['username'] = $username; //EXAMPLE 1: SELECTING user info simply from actual DB username/password match: if ($_SESSION['username']) { $userRecords = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = '$username' AND password = '$password'"); $userInfo = mysql_fetch_array($userRecords); echo $userInfo['id'] . $userInfo['username'] . $userInfo['first-name'] . $userInfo['last-name'] . $userInfo['date-register']; } // EXAMPLE 2: or SELECTING user info based on $_SESSION['username'] value: if ($_SESSION['username']) { $userRecords = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = . $_SESSION['username'] . AND password = '$password'"); $userInfo = mysql_fetch_array($userRecords); echo $userInfo['id'] . $userInfo['username'] . $userInfo['first-name'] . $userInfo['last-name'] . $userInfo['date-register']; } ?> So, my question is, are this actually working differently? is one better than the other as far as security, preventing other users from hacking either on purpose or accidenally into other user's details? thank! Appreciate any feedback... Or something like that... I am not sure how to put this.. Anyway, I'll just get started with explaining my problem. I have an admin-page in which you can delete the comments given on blogs, using checkboxes and clicking on a button with the value 'verwijderenSubmit'. The deletion part works just fine, nothing wrong. However, I also want to be able to EDIT the comments with an other button called 'bewerkenSubmit', using the same checkboxes that I use for deletion. Selecting the right CID (CommentID) is no problem, because that works the same as the deletion-part, but selecting the right textarea to update into the database is the problem... I uploaded a file here with the whole code: http://dhost.info/ddfs/myproblem.html I escaped the textarea within with square brackets, because otherwise the whole textarea would screw up.. I also added <!-- RELEVANT CODE --> to select the parts that I need to change. Well, I hope you understand my problem and can help. Hello. I am trying to display info from two tables with this code. Code: [Select] <?php $query = mysql_query("SELECT users.username, users2.username FROM users INNER JOIN users2 ON users.id = users2.id"); $numrows = mysql_num_rows($query); if ($numrows != 0) { while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { $username = $row['username']; echo $username . "<br />"; } } ?> However it displays info only from one db (users). I suppose there's something wrong with Code: [Select] <?php ... while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($query)) { $username = $row['username']; echo $username . "<br />"; } ... ?> Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. I'm currently trying...struggling....to teach myself PHP and I'm really bugged with this database stuff. I am slowly managing but I'm a tad bit stuck now. I want to show a specific piece of information from a table. Lets say my table is structured like so: id user email 1 Bob Bob@Name.com 2 Fred Fred@Name.com 3 Matt Matt@Name.com What would I need to do to display ONLY Freds user? One way I tried only displayed the first rows info (Bob) the second way I tried (with a while loop) only displayed the last rows info (Matt) Heres my current code: <html> <body> <?php include 'dbwire.php'; $query = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM user'); $row = mysql_fetch_array($query); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query)) { echo '<b>User:</b> ' . $row['user'] . '<br />'; } ?> </body> </html> This portion is kind of stumping me. Basically, I have a two tables in this DB: users and users_access_level (Separated for DB normalization) users: id / username / password / realname / access_level users_access_level: access_level / access_name What I'm trying to do, is echo the data onto an HTML table that displays users.username in one table data and then uses the users.access_level to find users_access_level.access_name and echo into the following table data, I would prefer not to use multiple queries if possible or nested queries. Example row for users: 1234 / tmac / password / tmac / 99 Example row for users_access_level: 99 / Admin Using the examples above, I would want the output to appear as such: Username: Access Name: Tmac Admin I am not 100% sure where to start with this, but I pick up quickly, I just need a nudge in the right direction. The code I attempted to create just shows my lack of knowledge of joining tables, but I'll post it if you want to see that I did at least make an effort to code this myself. Thanks for reading! I have 2 queries that I want to join together to make one row
Howdy, I'm trying to display text from a table in a database. It's a list of quotes, so I just need to pull out the quote and the author name. However, the quote and name are not fields in the same record; they are separate records. Example data: Code: [Select] quoteid name value 1 content You guys are great! Thanks for being awesome. 1 author John Jackson 2 content Gosh you're amazing! Always been so darn helpful! 2 author Peter Davis So, I just need to rip out the data from 'content' and 'author', and then group them together based on the quoteid. This is my code thus far: $testimonial_resource = mysql_query("SELECT name, value FROM quotes GROUP BY quoteid ORDER BY author ASC") or die(mysql_error()); while ($testimonial = mysql_fetch_assoc($testimonial_resource)) { echo '<p>'.$testimonial['value']'.<br /><strong>'.$testimonial['value'].'</strong></p>'; } Any help would be greatly appreciated for this novice. Cheers. |
