I have tried it on a new blank page, and it is working, but I cannot get it to work on the original page I was writing....I have even copied and pasted the text from the working one to the original...

OK so that last one was from print_r() var_dump has given much better results:

var_dump($row['log_check']);
returns NULL

Array
(
[0] =>
[log_check] =>
)

That was what I thought originally, but that isn't working either. :-(

I have been trying to use the function is_null to see if a database value is NULL. When I run this I am looking at the database and the value is definitely NULL, but it is not re-directing to the...

I have a search box on my website, that allows users to look for items that have been posted by other users, I am using this code a the moment, but there is a problem with it
...

good idea, thanks :)

I forgot to mention before that user_ID is set to auto_increment in the USER table

Ok im not sure wether this counts as a php question or a database question, but ill put it here anyway.

I have two fields in a database, one of which holds a foreign key that is a primary key from...

You make a good point, but would that store 'checked' or 'unchecked' in the database??

Hopefully this will give you an idea that you can adapt into your code, if not then ask again

<?php
if(isset($_POST['box01']))
{
$box01 = 1;
}
else
{
$box01=0;

Well now thats a unique idea......whoa....whoa....whoa....wait a minit isnt that the exact same thing nav33n just said :P

I also reccomend adding a user_id field to the table, it makes things a...

Im going to ask a few more questions just to make sure i understand.

Where does the query come from (eg: the drop down box, a different drop down box, a text box)

Does the query come from the...

Thanks dude

Hi guys, i am writing this piece of code, it is building some javascript. I have got it working exactly the way I would like, apart from in the while loop, I would like to reomve the comma on the...

you say you have problems sending it to multiple addresses, but its fine for one. Maybe theres a format error, like you didnt put a , after each email or wrap the emails in "":

To:...

you are most welcome :)

Ok for this example i have put the option building into the code from the database


<?php
$conn=mysql_connect("localhost","root","") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("testbase") or...

Ok so are you saying that you already have the values of the options in HTML, or are the values selected from the database??

yes, but you would have to do that in php as $aid is a php variable, so it would be:


<?php
echo "<a href='template.php?aid=" . $aid . "'>Read more...</a>";
?>


OR

This is a very simple example, but you can build on it:

I am sure you know how get works, but ill put it here anyway, this link sets $_GET['article'] to 1001 on my localhost: ...

I do not entirley understand the question, do you mean that you want to have some set variables, then one of them from a database, or do you want all of the options to be from the database??

Here...

Well I would suggest that you put the first name and last name into separate fields. I think it is because it doesnt post spaces or anything after them. Perhaps you could have an underscore if you...

try creating a new table in the database, and putting the data there, just for a test see if that works

Well so am I, this sounds very strange. are you running it on your own pc or on a free webhost??

try deleting that first entry into the table, and submitting the form again to see if it will enter it once again.

You say you get one record added, by this do you mean that your form worked once, then just stopped afterwards??

there is nothing wrong with your code so far as i can see, I have just copied it onto my computer and it works perfectly well. maybe you have a server problem

no problem, i only found this out yesterday actually, I had the exact same problem. lol

I dont know if it is as simple as this, but you have left out a " at the end of your $sql = part before the ;

sometimes the location:header part has a problem, since it is supposed to be set before any html. the way around this is to put <?php ob_start(); ?> at the very top of the page, before the <html> tag...

How would I open port 80 on my computer, would it be done inside norton or from windows??

ok thanks again, what do you class as a lot of data, because i would guess the whole page has around 80 - 90 lines of code.

I have changed it so that the ob_start() and ob_flush() are only wrapped...

Thankyou, this is a very good explanation as this code is near the bottom of the page. I have fixed the problem using ob_start() and ob_flush(), that allows me to keep everything the same.

Hi everybody,

I am new to using XAMPP to locally test my php files (I previousley just uploaded them directly to a free hosting site). I was wondering if anybody knew how other people can view...

I use dreamweaver for all coding: html, css, javascript, php, sql and i use XAMPP for local testing. i have found it to be very easy to use, with the exception that i have to have 2 command windows...

I dont mean to say that your method doesnt work, but if you use this javascript function, the user can still copy and paste letters into the box. I havent tested MitkOK's code, but i think that would...

OK, so i have written a website that has been hosted online with a free hosting company for some time, but now i have limited access to the internet, so i have started using XAMPP. The code that once...
