php help, see example :)
 

Ok, what i want to do is have the sql load the page based on the modnum entered in the php line (text.php?modnum=1) - ive tried alot of == lines and get errors, how would u simplify this to work :D thanks alot guys! :d




/** SQL QUERY
*/
if(!isset($modnum)){
$sql = "SELECT id,up_date, up_modelname, up_age, up_from, up_description, up_moviename, up_length, up_buyvideo, up_modelset, keywords FROM $upTable WHERE LOWER(keywords) LIKE '%".$modnum."%' ORDER BY up_date DESC";
}


$result = mysql_query($sql, $db_link);

Ok, my PHP is a bit rusty but try this and see if it works....

----Code----
if(isset($modnum))
{
if($modnum==1)
{
$sql = "SELECT id,up_date, up_modelname, up_age, up_from, up_description, up_moviename, up_length, up_buyvideo, up_modelset, keywords FROM $upTable WHERE LOWER(keywords) LIKE '%".$modnum."%' ORDER BY up_date DESC";
}
}
Else
{
echo 'Variable Not Set';
}

----Code----

You should check to see if the variable $modnum has a value assigned to it. If so, then check to see if that value = 1. If it is, run the sql statement.

Hope it helps.

Replace $modnum for $_GET['modnum'], I think that is your problem.

consider the hint with the $_GET

also try [...] FROM ".$upTable." WHERE [...]

should work

Hi there and thanks for the help, actually the variable itself is fine.. I am trying to load up the value within the program to display the model itself with the field ID

so modnum=1 would local database field with ID 1

$sql = "SELECT id, up_date, up_modelname, up_age, up_from, up_description, up_moviename, up_length, up_buyvideo, up_modelset, keywords FROM $upTable WHERE $modname=id ORDER BY up_date DESC";

now this would be the logical way, where modname=id but it doesnt load the value, just pulls the blank screen on me :(

well youre not showing us your code to read the result from mysql or anything. That may be where your problem is. ALso in your first example you use !isset, which means IF ITS NOT SET


the correct way is to use $_GET. Yes, for now it works otherwise, but its the correct way nor is it safe to use variables like that.


Also, dont you mean: id=$modname ? try putting id='$modname' (with the comas)

WHERE id = '" . $modnum . "' LIMIT 1

Here is all the code, I hacked job a multipage tour file to attempt this...
