Re: [PHP] update mysql from php web page
For the submit button to work it has to be in a form. FORM ACTION=blah_blah.php METHOD=post INPUT TYPE=submit /FORM Hope this helps.

Daniel Clark Of course, I didn't notice I left that line out of my code, although I did remember to put in the closing form tag. But, unfortumately, the update is not executed. The form button works, and it appears to do what it should, but the data is not changed. I changed the form method to get so I could see what is being passed and everything there is fine, but at the end of the url I see this- url...stuff...submit=Update+Data Is this correct? What else can I do to see what was passed to the database (if anything)? -- Chip pcenterinput type=submit name=submit value=Update Data/center/p ... more code ... /table ? endif; ? /body /html - I don't see any reason for the submit button to not work at all.

Re: [PHP] update mysql from php web page
Something I like to do during troubleshooting is to have the page display the SQL statement I'm processing. Something like: print sql_query ; That was I can verify all the parameters are correct. Do you have autocommit ON? Or need to pass a commit statement? Daniel Clark Of course, I didn't notice I left that line out of my code, although I did remember to put in the closing form tag.

[PHP] update mysql from php web page
I have an existing web page that pulls some data and displays it in form input fields. I would like to add the ability to edit those fields and submit the changes to the server, but have been unsuccessful. What bit of code do I need to add to the existing code? This is the existing code to display the info -- $query = select * from warranty WHERE OwnerName='$result'; $results = mysql_query($query); $row = mysql_fetch_array($results); I probably need to use if(isset($submit)): and an update statement, but my attempt just causes the web page to display completely blank. This is what I tried - if(isset($submit)): $query1 = update warranty set VesselName='$vessel',OwnerName='$owner',OwnerStreet='$address',OwnerCity='$city',OwnerState='$state',OwnerZip='$zip',OwnerCountry='$country',DateInstalled='$DateInstalled',DealerName='$Dealer',DealerStreet='$DealerAddress',DealerCity='$DealerCity',DealerState='$DealerState',DealerZip='$DealerZip',DealerCountry='$DealerCountry',Model='$Parts',SN='$PartsSN',VesselType='$vesseltype',VesselLength='$length',InstalledOn='$construction',VesselTypeOther='$vesseltypeother') ; $result1 = mysql_query($query1); mysql_query($query1); else: $query = select * from warranty WHERE OwnerName='$result'; $results = mysql_query($query); $row = mysql_fetch_array($results); ?
