Well there isn't any empty lines that i can see after the ?>

This is the error I get: [b]Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/totallyc/public_html/login/users.php:18) in /home/totallyc/public_html/login/add_user.php on line 16[/b] Here is my code starting at line 16: [code]header("Location: users.php");[/code] I need to redirect after a user has been added and i'm having trouble doing it.

Now that, that part of the site works. Would you guys know how to do the [b]Edit Entry[/b] Link?

The way alpine did it work for me. Thanks guys i really get a lot help around here.. thats why i love this site soo much.  ;D

First of All here is my code: [code]   $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM blog ORDER BY date DESC") or die(mysql_error()); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $x = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM blog"); echo "<div id=\"blog\">\n"       ."<h1>{$row['title']}</h1>\n"       ."<p>{$row['content']}</p><br/>\n"       ."<h2>Edit Entry | <a href=\"?a=delete&amp;d=$x\">Delete Entry</a></h2>\n"       ."</div>\n"; }[/code] I basicly trying to create a way for user to delete blog posts on my site. There is a loop which pulls all of the blog entries and puts them into html. I want to asign value to the "[b]Delete Entry[/b]" link which will give the id of the query being selected. To do this is use [b]$x[/b] to store the id of the resulting blog. My code is wrong, i know this but I'm hoping someone can tell me how to re-write:[code] $x = mysql_query("SELECT id FROM blog");[/code]Into something that will give the value of the id field. It may be hard to explain so feel free to ask questioins if you don't understand

Oh oh.. I see. sorry for misunderstanding you. THanks for your help.

If i declare $x inside loop won't it reset x to 1 everytime?

THis is the error i get [b] Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_WHILE in /home/totallyc/public_html/login/blog.php on line 37[/b] Line 37 is : [quote]while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {[/quote]

I'm trying to assign values to each Delete Entry link. But i'm having some trouble doing it. Here is my code: [code]  <?php   switch($_GET['a']) { case "add_entry":   include("add_entry.php"); break; default:   $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM blog ORDER BY date DESC") or die(mysql_error()); $x = 1 while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $blog_array[$x] = $x echo "<div id='blog'><h1>". $row['title']. "</h1><p>". $row['content']. "</p>". "<br /><h2>Edit Entry | <a href="?a=delete?d=$x">Delete Entry</a>". "</h2></div>"; $x = $x + 1 } break; } ?>[/code]

Okay i'll try to explain this as best as possible. There is the main.php page. and when you click a link name Add Entry, it includes add_entry.php Here is the add_entry.php code: [code]<?php if(isset($_POST['submit'])); { echo "This seems to work" } ?> <h2>Add Entry</h2> <form name="Add Entry" action="<?php echo $_POST['a']=add_entry; $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="POST"> <label for="title">Title:</label> <input name="blgtitle" id="blgtitle" type="text" /> <label for="content">Content:</label> <textarea name="blgcontent" cols="35" rows="4" id="blgcontent"></textarea> <p> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </p> </form>[/code] Its pretty basic. This is wear I will be able to add blog entries but i have some problems. When my site includes this page it gives me the following output: [quote]This seems to work. Add Entry Title: Content:[/quote] The "This seems to work" part should only display when the form has been submited right? And the <? $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?> won't work because it reloads the main.php page, not the add_entry.php This may seem really complicated but maybe you can help.

Thanks that did the trick. but do u think you could explain it?

OKay i have my database set up like so: [b]id        username              password                firstname              lastname[/b] 1          sample                    ck3949                John                      DOE Someone can login and it checks weather its the right password and then redirects them to a diferent page. On that page I want to have a message Saying "Welcome John", meaning that i need to pull the firstname out of the row of the user that is logged in. Heres my code: [code]$query = mysql_query("SELECT firstname FROM users WHERE username='$user'") or die ("Can't execute: " . mysql_error()); $name = $query ?>   <h1>Welcome <? print $name; ?>,</h1>[/code] And i don't get any errors but my output is: [b]Welcome Resource id #4[/b] Any idea?

wow that did it . thanks wildteen and huggie and all others that helped  ;D

same error : [b]Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/totallyc/public_html/login/index.php on line 27[/b]

[code]<?php //check that the user is calling the page from the login form and not accessing it directly //and redirect back to the login form if necessary //check that the form fields are not empty, and redirect back to the login page if they are if (isset($_POST['Login'])) { if (empty($_POST['username']) || empty($_POST['password'])) { $result = "Username or Password field appear to be empty."; } else { // Convert Posted Data to Variables $user = $_POST['username']; $pass = $_POST['password']; $dbHost = "localhost"; $dbUser = "**"; $dbPass = "**"; $dbDatabase = "****"; // Connect to Database $conn = mysql_connect($dbHost,$dbUser,$dbPass) or die ("Unable to connect to Database"); mysql_select_db($dbDatabase); $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username='$user' AND password='$pass'"); $result = mysql_fetch_array($query); //check that at least one row was returned if (mysql_num_rows($result) != 0) { //start the session and register a variable session_start(); session_register('username'); //successful login code will go here... $error = "Success"; //we will redirect the user to another page where we will make sure they're logged in //header( "Location: checkLogin.php" ); } else { //if nothing is returned by the query, unsuccessful login code goes here... $error = 'Incorrect login name or password. Please try again.'; } } } ?>[/code]

Alright so i'm working on a simple login script and when I test the script heres the error i get : [b] Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/totallyc/public_html/login/index.php on line 27[/b] And my code for line 27 is : [code] if (mysql_num_rows($result) != 0) { /* This line is line 27 */ //start the session and register a variable session_start(); session_register('username'); //successful login code will go here... $error = "Success";[/code] Any suggestions?

Alright I got it to work properly. All i had to do was change the ASC to DESC to get the effect I wanted. Thanks for your help.

Wait do you mean column or row? Or are they the same thing? Sorry I'm kinda noob to PHP and MySQL.

I used date as my column name and it doesn't work??? This sucks i'm lost.

I'm trying to create a simpl blog for a website. And I can get it to output the entires but now I wanted the entries to be sorted by date they were submited. Heres basicly all my code: [code]<?php $host = "localhost"; $user = "***"; $pass = "****"; $database = "*****"; $conn = mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die ("Unable to connect to Database"); mysql_select_db($database); $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM blog") or die(mysql_error()); while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<div id='blog'><h1>". $row['title']. "</h1><p>". $row['content']. "</p>". "<br /><h6>Post On: ". $row['date']. "</h6></div>"; } ?>[/code] Can anyone help me? I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi, I was wondering if there is an easy way of including images into a php doc? For example i have included content before : include (file.html). Can you like do the same thing but just change the file.html to the directory where the image is located? If you know of any other way to add images I would appreciate it.
