Actually, cst_SiteID is tied to assets owned by the customer in another table. What I need to do is get the cst_SiteID and use it to get a list of assets from the other table. I have created a successful search page for an individual site id search, but now want to do a search by name, where multiple sites are displayed. Here is my current query:
mysql_select_db(mig) or die("Problem selecting database"); $query = "SELECT * FROM customers WHERE cst_Name LIKE '$_SESSION[Name]%'"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die ("Query failed"); //let's get the number of rows in our result so we can use it in a for loop Search by Site ID SiteID: 7820 <-- Search for SiteID 7820 + Center Technologies, Inc. 7820 <-- Results from Search listing Name and Site ID + 37670 7820-www-db0 63.240.145.18 7820 <-- Assests Associated with SiteID 7820 + -----Original Message----- From: gerald_clark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2004 11:59 AM To: Chris Dietzler Cc: Mysql (E-mail) Subject: Re: Pulling a value from a filed in a result to use as another variable Chris Dietzler wrote: >I am trying to pull cst_SiteID from a query result to use in another query: > >SELECT cst_Name,cst_SiteID FROM customers WHERE cst_Name LIKE 'st%' > >+------------------------------------------+------------+ >| cst_Name | cst_SiteID | >+------------------------------------------+------------+ >| Stanley Associates | 8182 | >| Starbucks Coffee Holdings | 9261 | >| State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance C | 9523 | >| State of New York -NYMTC | 7356 | >| State Street Bank and Trust Company | 8305 | >| Staubach Company | 8240 | >| Staveley Services | 8502 | >| Stellar Internet Monitoring, LLC | 8665 | >| Stonewall Kitchens | 8221 | >| Strategic de Mexico | 4401 | >+------------------------------------------+------------+ > >Can anyone help me figure out how to assign a new variable to the cst_SiteID >for each row? >Sincerely, >Chris Dietzler > > > > Well, if cst_SiteID is autoincrement, try: update customers set cst_SiteID=0 where cst_Name LIKE 'st%'; -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
