Hey there,
I'm trying to make a simple point adding system and it works so far, but it works with a submit button and not an image. So if i click the button it will add 20 'points' to the database i provided but this does not seem to work with an image. Can someone help me with this, i'm kinda new to php.
Code:
<?php
//defining username and amount of points to give + the current points
$username = 'djexploit';
$seepoints = mysql_query("SELECT points FROM members WHERE username='$username'") or die(mysql_error());
$fetchresults = mysql_fetch_row($seepoints);
$currentpoints = $fetchresults['0'];
echo "Current points are: $currentpoints points.";
$points = $currentpoints + 20 ;
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$newpoints = $points;
//the updating of the points field
mysql_query("UPDATE `members` SET `points` = '$points' WHERE `username`= '$username'") or die(mysql_error());
echo "The amount of points has been updated. You now have $newpoints";
} else {
echo '<br>click the image to add 20 points';
}
?>
