Compare Record With Session Variable And Update Record If Different
I'm trying to figure out how to create a session variable from a recordset field value in a mySQL database and compare this with subsequent values from the same field each time the page reloads. When the value of the field changes (as a result of a user update) I want to trigger an event (redirecting to another page). It's probably a very basic PHP function but I am a newbie with this language.

Member Login And Update Record
I have a php script running which does a search and display of records on a mysql database. The database comprises 3 tables which have a common field. I create all records offline and import it into the database for 2 of the tables. For the third table I only create the common field and all the others are initially blank. I would like to do the following : - members can search and display their record (this I already have). - the record will include an edit link (this is new). - when members click on the edit link they must be presented with a userid/password screen which they have to fill in. I want to create the userid's and passwords. - from the userid/password screen members must be taken to a screen which will display some basic info (from the database and non editable) and a form or edit fields in which they can enter optional information for their record. All the optional data will be stored in the third table.
Using Record Identifier From Select In Update Query?
Just wondering if I can get a record identifier from a query. The basic idea is to process the data in a user-specified field in a user-specified table.. and write it back without modifying any other field. So the program would go something like this: $qid=mysql_query("SELECT $field FROM $table"); WHILE ($list($field_value)=mysql_fetch_row($qid)) { new_field = process($field_value); and then the tricky part - how do I write back $field to $table? If I use an update query (eg: UPDATE $table SET $field=$new_field WHERE $field='$field_value') it will update all the fields where $field is $field_value. Is there a way of getting a (unique) record identifier from the select query and using it in the update query? Since the table is user-specified, I have no way of knowing what the primary index is.

Is It Possible? (Multiple Forms One Record)
Is it possible to insert/append to a single record from multiple forms? I essentially have a five part survey that is accessed through five html forms, but inserts a single record into a table.

Empty Fields For Every Record
If i have a table structure like in my attachment, how can i check for empty fields.That is, I want to check for every record in the table if lastname, street, zip, city and pwd are filled.

Could somebody please tell me how can i do this one?
Record Lock/unlocking In PHP
I'm writing a postgres database with a PHP front end for a small work-group , and I want to prevent two editors working on the same record at the same time overwriting each others entry's. The standard solution is to add a lock field to the database and toggle it from 0 (unlocked) to 1 (locked) when the record is selected for editing, however I cannot guarantee that a record will get unlocked when an editor has finished with it (a browser crash would force visiting an unlock page to allow a record to be edited). I also do not want to place any particular limitations on how long a record can be checked out for editing. What I have in mind is saving the original data in hidden fields in the form then diff the data with the database when the form data is saved, if there is a difference (ie something has been changed between checking out the record and saving it) the form is put into a 'diff mode' which highlights what has been done. Another option would be to generate an MD5 checksums for each row on the table store it in a checksum column and use that to spot alterations. Is there any other better options I'm missing?

Resort Record ID's
I have a db with news items in there. there is a id, date, title and body.

So what i am need(and have no idea how to do) is resort items when one is deleted, say move #45 to #44 etc to fill in the gaps.
