Hi all. After lots of research, I finally got this darn code to work. The only problem is I don't know how to detect which user is banned on the website and which user is not, or which user has a warning, and which 1 does not. i want to detect which user is what by the user's 1st name, and last name. or should i make a table that hold's their ip? if so, how would i do that? a working example would be GREAT! Code: $query = "SELECT $warning1, $banned1 FROM $tbl;"; var_dump($query."<br>\n"); $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); //now lets go through every row returned. while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ $warning = $row[$warning1]; $banned = $row[$banned1]; $rows = mysql_num_rows($result); echo "query: ".$query."<br>\n"; echo "result: ".$result."<br>\n"; echo "row: ".$row."<br>\n"; echo "warning: ".$warning."<br>\n"; echo "banned: ".$banned."<br>\n"; echo "rows: ".$rows."<br>\n"; if($warning > 0){ ANY help is GREATLY appreciated!

If I wanted to create a table in my database with TIMESTAMP DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, and wanted to check if the same person submitted data before the next day and send an error message depending on if 24 hours has passed on the same person, how would i do that? how could i use this "WHERE timesamp >NOW() +INTERVAL 1 DAY", to detect if its been 24 hours or not since that person's 1st submit? here's the table: <?php $conn = "localhost"; $user = "myuser"; $pass = "mypass"; $dbname = "metaldetect02"; $tbl2 = "users0002"; $con = mysql_connect($conn,$user,$pass); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect to database: "' . $dbname . '" because ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db($dbname, $con); $sql="INSERT INTO $tbl2 (item, firstname, lastname) VALUES ('".$_POST[requireditem]."','".$_POST['requiredfirstname']."','".$_POST['requiredlastname']."')"; echo "Thanks for submitting your item, ".$_POST['requiredfirstname'].", ".$_POST['requiredlastname']."!<br>"; echo "Returning you to the previous page..."; echo "<script>setTimeout('document.location = \"./\";', 2000);</script>"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_close($con); ?> ANY help is GREATLY appreciated!

Ok, using this code, can someone at least help me modify it to detect whether or not its 24 hours later since the 1st submit? <?php $thismonth = date("m"); if ($thismonth=="01") // list January's dates { echo "<ul id=\"dateslist\">"; echo "<li>Wed, 7th January</li>"; echo "<li>Wed, 14th January</li>"; echo "<li>Wed, 21st January</li>"; echo "<li>Wed, 28th January</li>"; echo "</ul>"; } elseif ($thismonth=="02") // list February's dates { echo "<ul id=\"dateslist\">"; echo "<li>Wed, 4th February</li>"; echo "<li>Wed, 11th February</li>"; echo "<li>Wed, 18th February</li>"; echo "<li>Wed, 25th February</li>"; echo "</ul>"; } ?> <?php $conn = "localhost"; $user = "myuser"; $pass = "mypass"; $dbname = "metaldetect02"; $tbl2 = "users0002"; $con = mysql_connect($conn,$user,$pass); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect to database: "' . $dbname . '" because ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db($dbname, $con); $sql="INSERT INTO $tbl2 (item, firstname, lastname) VALUES ('".$_POST[requireditem]."','".$_POST['requiredfirstname']."','".$_POST['requiredlastname']."')"; echo "Thanks for submitting your item, ".$_POST['requiredfirstname'].", ".$_POST['requiredlastname']."!<br>"; echo "Returning you to the previous page..."; echo "<script>setTimeout('document.location = \"./\";', 2000);</script>"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_close($con); ?>

i cant store it in a database because technically nobody has submitted data yet. what i need to do is use php to detect if after submission, it's the next day, if not then return error, if so, then allow for another submission. can someone please show me a working example?

Hi all. I need to know how after a person submits some data, that it will return an error message until the next day? Example: I submit my data. it returns an error message until the next day. then it lets me submit again. <?php $conn = "localhost"; $user = "myuser"; $pass = "mypass"; $dbname = "metaldetect02"; $tbl2 = "users0002"; $con = mysql_connect($conn,$user,$pass); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect to database: "' . $dbname . '" because ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db($dbname, $con); $sql="INSERT INTO $tbl2 (item, firstname, lastname) VALUES ('".$_POST[requireditem]."','".$_POST['requiredfirstname']."','".$_POST['requiredlastname']."')"; echo "Thanks for submitting your item, ".$_POST['requiredfirstname'].", ".$_POST['requiredlastname']."!<br>"; echo "Returning you to the previous page..."; echo "<script>setTimeout('document.location = \"./\";', 2000);</script>"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_close($con); ?>
