Display Selected Record That Has Been Passed To URL
I have a page which can list all records from a table in my local database.

For each record that is displayed there is link next to it. When the link is
pressed another page opens up and the ID (automated primary key in my table)
of the record selected is passed to the URL.

So now the URL looks something like this:

http://localhost/Webpages/newpage.php?recordID=3

How do I display the details of the record that has been selected on this
new page?

Automatically Change To Display The Next Record
I have a page which displays a single record on a page each time from a mysql database. there are 10 records in total in the database.

What I would like to do, is rather than have the user click a link to display the next/previous record I would like the record to be displayed for a certain length of time (say 20 seconds) and then automatically move on to display the next record. When it has reached the last record, I would like it to loop round again from the start.
Any ideas on the best way to achieve this?

Using PHP & MySQL To Display Web Pages
I am a real novice to php and MySQL, with about a week's worth of
reading and self tutoring. I have an urgent need to publish a
database of information and need some guidance on how to do this.

This question might be more suited to a MySQL newsgroup, but since php
and MySQL seem to have become almost married to one another, and since
getting the data out and displaying it is where my problem seems to
lie, I thought I would start with this php group.

The problem is I can not figure out how to put information into a
MySQL database and get it out and correctly dislay it for the web.
More correctly I have two types of data I need to get in and out.

1. I have some web page content, not inlcuding borders, that is in
html format. So I have tried saving the html code, which looks
exactly like the code when you "view source" on a web page, into MySQL
and getting it out. I can get it out, but I have not figured out how
to make it act like html, i.e. to be interpreted by the browsers.
Instead it comes out looking exactly like html code. It is not being
interperted by the browser.

2. I would prefe instead of typing in html code for the content of a
page to type in instead the text, tables, lists, etc. Here is where
my problem lies, how do I input to MySQL relatively simple web pages
that may have a table, a list, some links, a picture?

3. How do I call up and use the data from MySQL an dget this to
display for the web?

By the way, I have been learning css, so I would like to use this if
possible. If not, i.e. if the formating mechanism for getting content
into a database precludes having it formattted by css on the
publication sie, then that is ok. I can live with that.

Retrieve And Display 3rd Party Pages
I'm wondering if you can show me an example php page that allows me to
retrieve and display 3rd party pages. I.e.,

when my php script is called as http://site/path/getit.php?file_key
it can retrieve from http://3rd.party/path2/name-with-file_key.htm
and display the result back to the browser.

I don't know php, and start to learning it. So I hope you can give me a full
php page, not a segment. I don't think it'd be too long though. Luckily, I'm
a programmer, so you don't need to comment it much, unless it is too
convoluted.

Further, if you can throw in handling of gzipped files, that'd be super.

If you have Firefox,

Display Results From A Database On Multiple Pages
I am new to PHP and Mysql but am really determined to learn these techniques. I have some script that reads and displays results from the databse onto a page. However, I really wish to limit the number of results that are displayed to 10 per page and then have the next/privious links under the results.

PHP Pages Display In All Windows Browsers And NO Linux Browsers!
OS: Windows XP, Windows 2000
OS: Linux Red Hat Enterprise Level 3, Fedora Core 3

Browsers: Firefox 1.0, IE 6.1+, Mozilla, Konqueror

We are working on an internal website that is to be used as an
intranet. This page goes through an initial SSL layer after asking for
certificate acceptance, once you acccept the page should pull up.

And here is the problem: It pulls up under any browser within Windows;
it never pulls up under any browser within Linux. This includes
Firefox; it's fine in Windows/Firefox but locks up cold in
Linux/Firefox.

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.

Avioding Expired Pages, & Carrying Data Accross Multiple Form Pages
I have a checkout/order form that consists of 6 pages, all PHP. The are linked to one another, like, after the user finishes page 1, they proceed to page 2, etc... The first two pages are submitted by a GET link, so those are not in my question. The next 4 are submitted using a <form>. Throughout all of the pages, i would probably have about 25-30 variables, things that the user has to fill out. I have two questions,

1. What would be the best way for me to keep track of all the data moving throughout the pages, like storing it from page 4, and i still need to access it on page 6.
2. I don't know if anyone could help me here, but does anyone know of a way to code around those ugly "page expired" pages, because of a submitted form. If a user needs to go back, which most likely they will, is there some sort of way for me to skip the expired page?

Converting Html Pages Into Dynamic Pages
I built a website in html, using Dreamweaver. I need to have a database built within these pages and the person who is going to do it told me that they will have to convert all my html pages into dynamic pages (php).

Deleting A Record.
One last (hopefullly) problem I can't seem to get around for this
program...why isn't this deleting the row i want? It does nothing. Now error
messages either. HELP!

$link = mysql_connect("localhost");
if(! $link)
die("Could not connect to MySQL");

$database = "PC_Store";
mysql_select_db($database)
or die ("could not open $database: ".mysql_error() );

it is also the primary of the table...so it should delete the whole row
right?
