Best Way To Update A Mysql Record
I have a small app that a user can select an entry to be considered as "cancelled". This will change an entry in a mysql database. Is there someway of making a button that as soon as its clicked, sends the appropriate update info to the database and reloads the page?

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.

Update Record
I'm trying to update a record in a MySQL database. This is supposed to join two separate table entries in a relational database. First, the person creats a new Person entry in the person table. They are then sent to the Address page where they can either select an existing address or create a new one. If they create a new address, the ID is passed to join page via mysql_insert_ID(), which then combines it with the New personID which is collected from a cookie. Heres what I have so far: // Load connection script <?php require_once('../Connections/family.php'); ?> // Add new address ID to people table mysql_select_db($database_family, $family); $lastID = mysql_query(mysql_insert_ID(), $family); // Get the last ID $peopleID = $HTTP_COOKIE_VARS['fnewPeopleID']; mysql_query("UPDATE people SET addressID=$lastID WHERE peopleID=$peopleID"); header("people_admin.php"); // Go to admin page <?php echo "LastID = $lastID <br />"; echo "PeopleID = $peopleID"; ?> When I run this, its supposed to run the script then go back to the admin page. Instead the page just loads and sits there. I added the echo statement to check the variables, but they're coming up blank. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Update A Forecast Record
I am currently inserting records into a MYSQL table using a php form. I use the INSERT command in the form to capture the variables in the table. The form is for Restaurateurs to use to forecast sales for a future date. That future date is one of the fields in the record. Each record has a unique number ID. Two of the fields in the record (table) are not on the initial form because (at a later time) I want the user to be able to modify the record and insert the actual number of customers and also any mitigating circumstances (into those two empty fields) that could account for the difference. Could someone help me with the code that could allow the user to call up from the table of records, the full record for viewing and allow them to add that (actual) information and then"update" the record? (I think it requires another form but I am not sure).

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.

Add A Conditional Statement To My Update Record Form.
I wish to add a conditional statement to my update record form. Basically the form has an image upload feature and I wish to make it so that only if an image is specified should that field be updated, otherwise it should just ignore updating that field. The update code is below: $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE news SET Type=%s, Headline=%s, Poster=%s, Summary=%s, Content=%s, Image=%s, `Date`=%s, Disabled=%s WHERE Id=%s", GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['type'], "int"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['headline'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['poster'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['summary'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['content'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['image'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['date'], "date"), GetSQLValueString(isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['disabled' ]) ? "true" : "", "defined","'Y'","'N'"), GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['Id'], "int")); I have tried inserting an if statement around the particular field but this caused the page to flip out and generate errors all over the place.

Let me exlpain further: The client produces a fish product, and has a simple (one table) database, with about 5 or 6 fields, that give details about the harvesting dates, the geographic origin, the batch number, etc. for each batch of fish. I managed to create the table in a mySql database using phpMyAdmin. I also managed to create a set of "out-of-the-box" user admin tools for the client, by installing a free script (phpMyEdit I think). Code:

How To Duplicate Record In Mysql
Is there a simple select or subselect statemet that will duplicate a record from within a table. I tried some thing like this insert into howto select * from howto where howto_id=31; I think I am running into a problem because the howto_id is my primary key. Is there someway of doing this, simple. I could do it with PHP by calling that record and storing the variables and then inserting without the howto_id, but that seems expensive. Seems like there should be a simple sql statement to accomplish copying a record within your table.

Applying A Class To The First And Last MySQL Record
I need to apply a class to the first and last records from a MySQL query. What I'm trying to do is pull the menus for my site but the first and last links need a class name for the design. I can't set them in the database because the order and items in the menu will change from time to time. so, here is how I pull my menu (cut down for this post). You can see it just grabs the name, url and makes a link. How would I apply a class to the first and last records? mysql_connect("localhost","root","password"); mysql_select_db("my_site"); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM menu ORDER BY id"); while ($are=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $name = $are['name']; $url = $are['url']; print '<a href="'.$url.'">'.$name.'</a>'."
