I'm currently building a Content Management System for my university project, but im really very inexperienced with PHP (only started using PHP a couple of months back, and MySQL about a month ago), so i keep hitting stumbling blocks. The site its managing can be viewed here: [a href=\"http://digimed.chrisgunton.com/\" target=\"_blank\"]http://digimed.chrisgunton.com/[/a] I have a very nice page creation/editing system that works great, and from these pages it creates a menu on the main site. Problem is i have no way of putting the buttons in a particular order. I'm using this to edit the order of the menu items [a href=\"http://www.gregphoto.net/sortable/advanced/\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.gregphoto.net/sortable/advanced/[/a] Or rather i will be! Ive got it listing my pages, and you can drag them and show the debug information. But how do i save this into my db to order the menu?

The problem looks like the caching of the page. When I go back and forth and keep checking published and unchecking it. When I return to the page, i get it as it was the first time i went to it. If i just click refresh it shows me the changes. So it looks like it is a caching problem and not a script problem.

Hi, Ive only been working with PHP since the weekend, and so far im pretty happy with myself. Ive built a rough CMS using PHP and MySQL for a University project. It can add, edit and delete pages, as well as set "Published" or "Draft" status for each page. This is where the problem lies. Im using a checkbox to set the Published status, which sets the value to 1 or 0 in the DB. The following code gets the current status of the page and displays the checkbox, ticked or not depending on the status. [code] <? if ($islive) {     echo "<input type='checkbox' name='ud_islive' value='0' checked />"; } else {     echo "<input type='checkbox' name='ud_islive' value='1' />"; } ?> [/code] Problem here is that if the page is Published, when being edited, no matter what you do its set to Draft when saved. I can be set to Published again but it sure is anoying. You can try it out here. But PLEASE dont go nuts with the editing. (also note, this is 2 days work from someone who hasnt even attempted PHP before so be kind!)
