Hi,
>From the code below $wk gets the values (w1, w2, w3, etc.) as it goes
through the 'for' loop. w1, w2, etc. are also colums in the table manager.
What I can't figure out is why the select statement fails (no error, just no
data) when I use $wk as apposed to hardcoding w1, w2, etc. Is this possible
or am I missing something?
Note: the colums w1, w2, etc contain numbers which I am trying to select.
TIA
$db = mysql_connect("xxxxxxxxxx","xxxxxxxxxx","xxxxxxxxxx");
mysql_select_db("database");
echo "<TABLE ALIGN=center WIDTH=200 BORDER=0><TR>\n";
for ($i = 1; $i < 26; $i++) {
$wk = "w$i";
echo "<TR Width=200><TD ALIGN=center COLSPAN=2><B>Week
".$i."</B></TD></TR>\n";
echo "<TR Width=200><TD COLSPAN=2><HR SIZE=5></TD></TR><TR>\n";
echo "<TR WIDTH=100><TD ALIGN=left><B>Name</B></TD><TD
ALIGN=right><B>Points</B></TD>";
echo "<TR Width=100><TD></TD></TR>\n";
$query = "select name, $wk from manager order by $wk desc";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die("Query failed");
while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
echo "<TR WIDTH=150><TD ALIGN=left>".$line['name']."</TD><TD
ALIGN=right>".$line['$wk']."</TD>";
}
echo "<TR Width=200><TD COLSPAN=2><HR SIZE=5></TD></TR>\n";
}
