PHP - Inserting Multiple Records Into One Table
Hi I'm using this code to insert multiple records. The code executes but nothing is entered into my database. This usually happens when there's a mismatch in data types.
How do I ensure that description goes in as text which in sql is wrapped in single quotes, but also make sure the other variables go in as numeric.
// an array items to insert $array = array( 'theid' => $theid, 'descr' => $descr, 'costperunit' => $costperunit, 'quantity' => $quantity, 'costperlot' => $costperlot ); // begin the sql statement $sql1 = "INSERT INTO descriptions (jobid, description, costperunit, quantity, costperlot) VALUES "; $it = new ArrayIterator( $array ); // a new caching iterator gives us access to hasNext() $cit = new CachingIterator( $it ); // loop over the array foreach ( $cit as $value ) { // add to query $sql1 .= "('".$cit->key()."','" .$cit->current()."')"; if( $cit->hasNext() ) { $sql1 .= ","; } } Similar TutorialsI'm sorry to be back so soon, but I'm up against another mystery. I'm using the code below to enter a bunch of css data from a spreadsheet into a mysql table. I think the data file is OK. The array created by the script checks out with print_r. (There are many more records than shown. I truncated it to save space.) The problem is that I get this error regarding my sql statement, not the data or anything else: Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near 'check, name, phone, email, entry_fee, print_fee, image_name, description, med...' at line 1 in /Users/studio/Sites/BannerProject/b-as/_test_site/csv_to_array.php:242 Stack trace: #0 /Users/studio/Sites/BannerProject/b-as/_test_site/csv_to_array.php(242): PDO->prepare('INSERT INTO tbl...') #1 {main} thrown in /Users/studio/Sites/BannerProject/b-as/_test_site/csv_to_array.php on line 242 I've typed it in a dozen times to make sure there are no errors and keep getting the same error. I tried running a test file and gradually increasing the number of placeholders and at some point I always end up getting the same error, I can delete the most recent addition and it works again. Then I can add another placeholder exactly as before and it works the second time. It feels like a ghost in the machine. Any idea what I am doing wrong? An I typing something I don't see? <?php require '__classes/Db.php'; $csvData = '1,FALSE,Carol Lettko,,,TRUE,FALSE,Carol_Lettko-DSC_3022.jpg,Baby Herons/Brickyard,photo,,, ,,,925-285-0320,cjl164@aol.com,,,Carol_Lettko-DSC_0164.JPG,Heron/Brickyard,photo,,, ,,,,,,,Carol_Lettko-IMG_5723.jpg,Kayaker/Brickyard,photo,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,, 2,FALSE,Louise Williams,,,TRUE,FALSE,Louise_Williams-BirdsOfAFeatherAOPR.jpg,Alligator with Words,Book Excerpt,,, ,,,510-232-9547,lkw@louisekwilliams.com,,,Louise_Williams-Hope-TheFairyChickenAOPR.jpg,Hope The Fairy Chicken,,,, ,,,The d exatrfrfvct/.*tygrvurr,,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,, 3,TRUE,Dorothy Leeland,,lelanddorothy@gmail.com,TRUE,FALSE,DJ_Lee-bridge at dusk 700px width.jpg,Bridge,photo,,, ,,,,,,,DJ_Lee-friends 700px width.jpg,Friends,photo,,, ,,,,,,,DJ_Lee-hybiscus 700 px wide.jpg,Hibiscus,photo,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,, 4,FALSE,Rita Gardner,,,TRUE,FALSE,Rita_Gardner-Explosion - Gardner photo.JPG,Explosion,photo,,, ,,,,tropicrita@msn.com,,,Rita_Gardner-Ferry Point tables and chair - Gardner.JPG,Ferry Point Tables,photo,, , ,,,,,,,Rita_Gardner-Forks - Gardner photo.JPG,Forks,photo,,, ,,,,,,,,,,,, '; $lines = explode(PHP_EOL, $csvData); $array1 = array(); foreach ($lines as $line) { $array1[] = str_getcsv($line); } $stmt = $pdo->prepare("INSERT INTO tbl_person_data (number, check, name, phone, email, entry_fee, print_fee, image_name, description, medium, select, orient, site) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)"); foreach ($array1 as $row) { $stmt->execute('$row'); } echo '<pre>'; print_r($array1); echo '</pre>'; ?>
Hi everyone, I have the task of building a PHP page where users can enter or remove as many records as they like into different categories. This then makes the number of records entered unknown, and therefore it becomes more complicated. To make this clearer, I have attached an image of what I am trying to do. Two questions: - Before submitting the form, how can each record entry be matched with the correct category? (maybe hidden form fields somehow?) - What is the best way of inserting each record (and it's associated category) into a MySQL database table from a single form submit? I want to try and keep this as simple as possible as the data will later be updated, removed etc. I'm experiencing a brain fart and just cannot picture the best way of going about this Any help and advice is much appreciated! Thanks in advance. Code: [Select] Basic table schema example... CATEGORY TABLE ---------------------------- | catid | category | ---------------------------- | 1 | Category A | | 2 | Category B | etc. etc. ---------------------------- DATA ENTRY TABLE ---------------------------- dataid | catid | data | -------------------------------- | 1 | 2 | data xyz | | 2 | 1 | data zyx | etc. etc etc. -------------------------------- Hi, I have a DB with two tables, customers and orders. One customer may have many orders, What I want to do is do a select on the two tables and get the customer info once, and then all the orders associated with the account. I saw how to do this once before using a join and then having to use a PHP foreach to break it up. I am just not sure of how to put the two together to make it work, or maybe there is an easier way completely. Any help is appreciated. Thanks B Example: Bob Smith Shoes Coat Boots Gloves Sally Jones Hat Purse Boots Umbrella Yes, I am going to be one of those guys today. I have never done XML anything, besides past 2-3 hours or so, and I am getting frustrated. I have learned how to create simple XML files and save them. I am however having hard time figuring out how to create and XML file when trying to access an table from databse. I am looking to export from "registered_users" table all "registrations" and include "first_name", "last_name" and "age"
Sample:
<registered_users>
<registration>
<first_name>Bob</first_name>
<last_name>Smith</last_name>
<age>36</age>
</registration>
<registration>
<first_name>Jack</first_name>
<last_name>Miller</last_name>
<age>45</age>
</registration>
</registered_users>
It would be nice if the file would be saved as spearate "all_users.xml"
Any help would be appreciated
Hi, I'm very new to these forums and php alike. I've been working on this bit of code for weeks now. I've written numerous versions and made endless revisions; trying pieces from many similiar source and well, it's still not quite working out for me. The form I've been trying to finish will have multiple rows. The user will input values specific to each row, but I'm trying to make it so that each row is synonymous with each other in regard to the database table. Like an order form, an inventory form, or a roster. I'd really like to make this code work out because I can think of numerous applications for it's use. I'm sure others could use it for even more. So, as you see; the html code represents the table that contains the form. Currently, I only have five of these rows in the form, but would like for anybody using the code to be able to add in code for as many rows in the table as needed. Code: [Select] <html> <head> <title></title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> </head> <body> <FORM action="post_multiple.php" method="POST"> <table width="80%" border="1"> <tr> <td>Vendor</td> <td>Item Description</td> <td>Quantity</td> <td>Price</td> </tr> <tr> <td><select name="vendor" id="vendor" > <option value="other1">other1</option> <option value="other2">other1</option> <option value="other3">other3</option> <option value="other4">other4</option> <option value="other5">other5</option> </select></td> <td><input name="description" type="text" id="description" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="quantity" type="text" id="quantity" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="price" type="text" id="price" size="50" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><select name="vendor" id="vendor"> <option value="other1">other1</option> <option value="other2">other1</option> <option value="other3">other3</option> <option value="other4">other4</option> <option value="other5">other5</option> </select></td> <td><input name="description" type="text" id="description" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="quantity" type="text" id="quantity" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="price" type="text" id="price" size="50" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><select name="vendor" id="vendor"> <option value="other1">other1</option> <option value="other2">other1</option> <option value="other3">other3</option> <option value="other4">other4</option> <option value="other5">other5</option> </select></td> <td><input name="description" type="text" id="description" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="quantity" type="text" id="quantity" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="price" type="text" id="price" size="50" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><select name="vendor" id="vendor"> <option value="other1">other1</option> <option value="other2">other1</option> <option value="other3">other3</option> <option value="other4">other4</option> <option value="other5">other5</option> </select></td> <td><input name="description" type="text" id="description" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="quantity" type="text" id="quantity" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="price" type="text" id="price" size="50" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><select name="vendor" id="vendor"> <option value="other1">other1</option> <option value="other2">other1</option> <option value="other3">other3</option> <option value="other4">other4</option> <option value="other5">other5</option> </select></td> <td><input name="description" type="text" id="description" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="quantity" type="text" id="quantity" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="price" type="text" id="price" size="50" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td><select name="vendor" id="vendor"> <option value="other1">other1</option> <option value="other2">other1</option> <option value="other3">other3</option> <option value="other4">other4</option> <option value="other5">other5</option> </select></td> <td><input name="description" type="text" id="description" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="quantity" type="text" id="quantity" size="50" /></td> <td><input name="price" type="text" id="price" size="50" /></td> </tr> </table> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" /> </FORM> </body> </html> In the php script I've tried using the count, loop, if, several others functions to try to get it to insert all the completed rows from the form into the table but just can't seem to get it to work out. Anyways, here's a representation of what i'd like to achieve. Not necessarily the code I've written trying to accomplish this, I'd have to upload a book if that were the case. <?php ini_set('display_errors','On'); error_reporting(E_ALL); $host="localhost"; // Host name $username="root"; // Mysql username $password="password"; // Mysql password $db_name="testing"; // Database name $tbl_name="test_multiple"; // Table name // Connect to server and select databse. mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB"); //declarations $vendor = $_POST['vendor']; $description = $_POST['description']; $quantity = $_POST['quantity']; $price = $_POST['price']; // Check if button name "Submit" is active, do this $sql1="INSERT INTO $tbl_name (vendor, description, quantity, price) VALUES ('".$vendor."', '".$description."', '".$quantity."', '".$price."')"; $result1=mysql_query($sql1); mysql_close(); ?> If anybody can suggest where I need to go with that, that would be great. Like I said above, I've tried about everything I could find any reason to from forum threads I had found in google searches and whatnot. Also, if there is a good article, link or tutorial that would address this that anybody knows about that would be great. However, I'm not looking for a link to a product or plugin that will do this stuff for me. I'm trying to get halfway decent at php and would like to have working code for myself to build upon, modify, and learn from. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!! Hi. When a record is added its done via a form and processed via inserts.php. I need to use the same form but to recall the data (by id) so it can be editted. Cant work it out though. Help would be well appreciated! edit.php: <CENTER><B>Update a Vehicle</B></CENTER> <BR> <?php $query="SELECT * FROM cars"; $result=mysql_query($query); $i=0; while ($i < $num) { $carname=mysql_result($result,$i,"CarName"); $cartitle=mysql_result($result,$i,"CarTitle"); $carprice=mysql_result($result,$i,"CarPrice"); $carmiles=mysql_result($result,$i,"CarMiles"); $cardesc=mysql_result($result,$i,"CarDescription"); ?> <form action="showroomedit.php" method="post"> <CENTER>Vehicle Name:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarName" value="<?php echo $carname; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Type:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarTitle" value="<?php echo $cartitle; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Price:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarPrice" value="<?php echo $carprice; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Mileage:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarMiles" value="<?php echo $carmiles; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Description:</CENTER> <CENTER><textarea name="CarDescription" rows="10" cols="30" value="<?php echo $cardesc; ?>"></textarea></CENTER> <br> <CENTER><input type="Submit"></CENTER> </form> </TD> cant work out why it isnt working... I want to pull some records plus unique key from one mysql table and then use them as questions in a form/questionnaire. The post form will have six radio buttons to the right of the fields pulled with the key posted but hidden and will wirte to another table. I guess this is a templating question- as I've successfully retrieved the table 1 records via a query - I just can't seem to use them in the form. Below is the code I'm using to view table "PCM1" <?php // query.php require_once 'login.php'; $db_server = mysql_connect($db_hostname, $db_username, $db_password); if (!$db_server) die("Unable to connect to MySQL: " . mysql_error()); mysql_select_db($db_database) or die("Unable to select database: " . mysql_error()); $query = "SELECT * FROM pcm1"; $result = mysql_query($query); if (!$result) die ("Database access failed: " . mysql_error()); $rows = mysql_num_rows($result); for ($j = 0 ; $j < $rows ; ++$j) { echo 'RID: ' . mysql_result($result,$j,'mcde') ; echo 'Statement: ' . mysql_result($result,$j,'oppclub') . '<br />'; ; } I have a customer registration form up and running, the form allows customers to complete the forms and the data is then inserted into mysql db table via php form. I want to prevent duplicates records from already existing customers from creating a new records instead I want the customers to update their existing records in the backend. That is allow them to complete the form as normal, once they hit the submit button, the code should check if the customer first name and last name is already in the database if yes then it should update their records and if not it should insert new record to the table. I do not want to alert the customer that their records already exist. I do not know where to start. Please help Thank you so much in advance for your help.

I have a problem with an amend to an admin system I am trying to change. The shop stocks different colours of each product and the client wants to be able to update the stock levels of all colours of one product (which all share the same title) on one form. I have tried following some instructions on some sites and tried making my own and I can get it to display the form and the values correctly, but on submission it does nothing but direct me to a page without a title value in the address (e.g. www.example.com/example/stock_level_2.php?title=). I think it may be to do with the arrays I am using, has anyone got any ideas? Here is the code. Form: Code: [Select] <?php $pd_title = str_replace("_"," ",$_REQUEST["title"]); $pd_title = str_replace("%","&#37;",$pd_title); $pd_title = str_replace("/","&#47;",$pd_title); $lookupqueryc = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM product WHERE pd_title = '".$pd_title."'

I am trying to create an admin page for a local Gym Club to allow an Administrator to be able to update club prices which then show on different screens on the site.
I have been able to display the "Prices Admin" page which basically reads a MySQL database table (pricelist), display the description, member price and non-member price and allows the user to update any of these fields.
My problem is that when I try writing the data back to the database with the "UPDATE" statement it fails, what I mean is that nothing updates. I have at the moment commented out the actual update statement and put in a "file_put_contents" command" to try and work out what is in the various fields before the UPDATE is run. I find that the display/INPUT works perfectly well but when I do a foreach on the $record array variable I am getting strange results.
I may not have explained this very well but here are the relevant sections of my code;

Its fairly straightforward and going well.. However ive been thinking about how it will work and have stumbled across a possible problem (because of my limited craft at programming). I want to have a single form that updates all records in the tables, this would simulate an "end of turn" button. Im sure i can do this if doing stuff in the game (e.g. move, create , modify, delete, fleets/ships and auto increment ships hulls simulating repair) if it was done on the same page. However i wanted to to initiate some of these adjustments in their respective pages (fleet.php, planets.php, ships.php etc) and then once the user is happy to click the end turn button somewhere which would update all of these things at the same time.. Is this possible at all??? If anybody could help that would be brilliant. Thank you p.s. if anybody wants a copy of the finished product when its complete, your most welcome. I know how to pull data from sql table and limit down the results, what i wanted to do is pull data from a sql table 'finished' and list data that has paid='0' this is then limited to show the amount of rows set by variable 'maxPay' here is my list what im pulling atm; <h2>Payment </h2> <?php if($userType[user_type]==28){ $queryPay = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM finished WHERE paid='0'&&method!='FALSE'&&method!='credit';") or die(mysql_error()); $queryAdmin = mysql_query("SELECT maxPay FROM `admin`;") or die(mysql_error()); $row = mysql_num_rows($queryPay); //echo $row."row<br />"; $rowsArray = mysql_fetch_assoc($queryAdmin); $rows = $rowsArray[maxPay]; //echo $rows."rows<br />"; if($rows>$row){ $r=$row; } else{ $r=$rows; } $s=0; while($s<$r){ if($_POST[complete]==TRUE){ mysql_query("UPDATE `finished` SET `paid`='$_POST[paid]' WHERE `auctionID`='$_POST[aid]';"); $_POST[complete] = FALSE; } $s++; } $t=0; while($t<$r){ $queryuser = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM finished WHERE paid='0'&&method!='FALSE'&&method!='credit';") or die(mysql_error()); $user = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "username"); //echo $user; $item = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "itemName"); //echo $item; $value = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "marketPrice"); //echo $value; $method = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "method"); //echo $method; $id = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "auctionID"); //echo $id; //echo $method; if($method=='isk'){ ?> <FORM method="post" action="pay.php"> <input type="hidden" name=complete value="TRUE" /> <input type="hidden" name=paid value="YES" /> <input type="hidden" name=username value="<? echo $user; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name=aid value="<? echo $id; ?>" /> <input type="submit" value="Paid" /><? echo $user." won a ".$item." he selected to receive ".$value."ISK."; echo "<br />"; ?></FORM><? } elseif($method=='ship'){ ?> <FORM method="post" action="pay.php"> <input type="hidden" name=complete value="TRUE" /> <input type="hidden" name=paid value="YES" /> <input type="hidden" name=username value="<? echo $user; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name=aid value="<? echo $id; ?>" /> <input type="submit" value="Paid" /><? echo $user." won a ".$item." he selected to receive the ship."; echo "<br />"; ?></FORM><? } else{ } $t++; } } else{ echo "You are not an Admin."; } ?> and pay.php: <?php header('Location: /admin.php'); include "connect.php"; echo $_POST[aid]; if($_POST[complete]==TRUE){ $tempID = (($_POST[aid])+1); mysql_query("UPDATE `finished` SET `paid`='$_POST[paid]' WHERE `auctionID`='$tempID';") or die(mysql_error()); $_POST[complete] = FALSE; } ?> at the moment i am listing all my data, and processing it using pay.php, each dataset has a "paid" button, i want to change this to using a checkbox at end of each data row, and a submit button at the bottom. this way i can select which rows to update and tick the checkbox, then click submit and those rows will then be updated the value '0' in db to a value of 'YES'. hope i explained myself clearly enough for some help. im a relative php noob still in training. Hi all! I have a page that is used to manage multiple user requests. The problem that I am having, is that it is supposed to send an email to the reporter any time their request is updated from this page. This works fine as long as I am doing one at a time, but when I try to update multiple records it doesn't send the emails. (All other functionality is working fine though.) Here is a summary of what I have so far: The form field to pass the users' emails Code: [Select] <input type="hidden" name="user_email<?= $arrValues["mantis_bug_id"] ?>" id="user_email<?= $arrValues["mantis_bug_id"] ?>" value="<?=$arrValues["email"]?>" /> This gets passed, along with the rest, to an update case on the same page, where I use a foreach() to process the multiple records: Code: [Select] foreach($_POST['chkResult'] as $intBugID){ . . . . . if (isset($_POST["user_email$intBugID"])){ $emailTo = $_POST["user_email$intBugID"]; $emailSubject = "Mantis issue $intBugID has been modified."; $emailContent = "Mantis issue $intBugID has recently been modified. Please review the changes that have been made here [link]</a><br />If you have any questions or concerns regarding this issue, please contact Mike or Matt.<br />Thank you,<br />The IT Team."; include_once("{$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']}/includes/Email.class.php"); $email = new Email(); $email->ContentType = "text/html"; $email->From = "me@myemail.org"; $email->FromName = "MOPS Mantis Bugtracker"; $email->to($emailTo); $email->bcc('me@myemail.org'); $email->subject($emailSubject); $email->setBody($emailContent); $email->send; echo 'User: ' . $emailTo. '<br />'; echo "User Email: " . $emailTo. "<br /><br />"; } }//end foreach As I said, this all works fine when I'm processing one issue at a time, but not when doing multiples. All other actions in the foreach() are also working. You'll notice that I'm echoing the username and email at the end for debugging purposes. The interesting thing is, that will output all of the correct usernames and emails for each user, it's just that the $email->send; just isn't working. Needless to say, this has become quite a frustrating bug to fix. Any help at all is much appreciated! Thanks, Mike Hi is it possible to update multiple records of the same table using a single hidden field with a while loop??? For example: Code: [Select] <?php if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) { $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE ships SET HealthA=%s WHERE ShipID=%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['healtha'], "int"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['shipid'], "text")); ?> <input name="healtha" type="hidden" id="healtha" value="<?php echo $row_Ships['HealthA'] + 1; ?>" /> <input name="shipid" type="hidden" id="shipid" value="<?php while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($Ships)){ echo $row_Ships['ShipID']; }?>" /> If its not possible what else could i do to achieve this please? Thank you As part of my User Profile, I have a series of open-ended questions that Members can answer, e.g... Quote 1.) Why did you start your own business? 2.) If you could offer one piece of advice to other entrepreneurs, what would it be? : 10.) How do you compete against large corporations? I was leaning towards creating a many-to-many relationship like this... member -||---------0<- answer ->0---------||- question From a database standpoint this works great, HOWEVER, I just realized a big problem... If run this query... Code: [Select] SELECT response FROM answer WHERE member_id = 1; ...then I would get TEN RECORDS back and I don't know of any way to maps those to the 10 Text Boxes on the "My Thoughts" page?! (It would be a real PITA to have to create 10 separate Prepared Queries in PHP - one for each Field - to fill out my page?!) So, is there a way to keep my table structure, but push the 10 records from above into 10 separate variables so I would have something like $response1, $response2,... $response10 ?? Thanks, Debbie Hi ive been stuck for a while now and i just cant get my head around it so if you could help i'd be well chuffed. I'm trying to update multple rows in a table depending upon the results of another. I have a form that enables me to update a table called fleet. Another table called ships is realted to the fleet table as each ship is in a fleet: fleet ----- Fleetname* Location Detected ships ------ ShipID* Fleetname * Shipname The particular fleet i am editing is parsed as a url parameter. I made a query to search for all the ships that are in the fleet i am editing: Code: [Select] $colname_ShipsInfleet = "-1"; if (isset($_GET['recordID'])) { $colname_ShipsInfleet = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['recordID'] : addslashes($_GET['recordID']); } mysql_select_db($database_swb, $swb); $query_ShipsInfleet = sprintf("SELECT * FROM ships WHERE FleetName = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_ShipsInfleet, "text")); $ShipsInfleet = mysql_query($query_ShipsInfleet, $swb) or die(mysql_error()); $row_ShipsInfleet = mysql_fetch_assoc($ShipsInfleet); $totalRows_ShipsInfleet = mysql_num_rows($ShipsInfleet); It searched the ships WHERE the FleetName (which is the primary key of the fleet table) is parsed as a url parameter. The appropriate ship records that are generated i want to use so a field can be updated. For example im updating a fleet record and and setting the location (Planet Name) to a different value. I want the Ship records that are of that particular fleet to update a field (PlanetName) in ship table when the fleet table is updated. Code: [Select] if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) { $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE ships WHERE ShipID = $row_ShipsInfleet['ShipID'] SET PlanetName=%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['select'], "text")); mysql_select_db($database_swb, $swb); $Result1 = mysql_query($updateSQL, $swb) or die(mysql_error()); $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE fleet SET PlanetName=%s, Detected=%s, Faction=%s WHERE FleetName=%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['select'], "text"), GetSQLValueString(isset($_POST['checkbox']) ? "true" : "", "defined","1","0"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenField2'], "int"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenField'], "text")); mysql_select_db($database_swb, $swb); $Result1 = mysql_query($updateSQL, $swb) or die(mysql_error()); I'm really not sure how to proceed here so please if you can help me out that would be ace. Thank You Hello, Please excuse me if this sounds like a bit of a newb question. If I have a link to a users profile and use GET to pull information about that user from various tables using something like this: Code: [Select] <?php { $id = $_GET['id']; $user = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users,tbl1,tbl2,tbl3,tbl4,tbl5 WHERE $id=tbl1.user_id AND tbl1.user_id=tbl2.user_id AND tbl2.user_id=tbl3.user_id ANDtbl3.user_id=tbl4.user_id AND tbl4.user_id=tbl5.user_id"); $user=mysql_fetch_assoc($user); } ?> <h3>Table 1</H3> <?php echo "<b>".$user['tbl1_title']."<br>"; ?><br /> <h3>Table 2</H3> <?php echo "<b>".$user['tbl2_title']."<br>"; ?><br /> <h3>Table 3</H3> <?php echo "<b>".$user['tbl3_title']."<br>"; ?><br /> <h3>Table 4</H3> <?php echo "<b>".$user['tbl4_title']."<br>"; ?><br /> <h3>Table 5</H3> <?php echo "<b>".$user['tbl5_title']."<br>"; ?><br /> Why does it only show the 1st record for that user from each table? And mostly, how do I change it to show all or a certain number of records from each table? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance |
