I am using dreamweaver.

I have a dynamic table, which just displays the data in a mysql table, along with pagingation.

 

I would like to learn how to make the column names be links to sort the table.

 

Any advice or help with this would be much appreciated.

I have tried googling for a tutorial but havent had much luck.

I just posted a question in the MyQSL forum so I'd better keep the karma coming by helping someone else. Ha ha ha.

 

The idea is that the column names are links with urls like "<?php $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>?filter=transactionDate&dir=ASC". Up in your code (before HTML) you check to see if 'filter' and 'direction' have been set.

 

if (isset($_GET['filter'])) {
$filter = sanitize($_GET['filter']);
} else {
$filter = "transactionDate";
}

if (isset($_GET['dir'])) {
$direction = sanitize($_GET['dir']);
} else {
$direction = "DESC"; 
}

 

Sanitize is a function I made that, well, sanitizes the input.  You are filtering or sanitizing your input, right?  :)

 

Then we toss that into the query:

 

"SELECT * FROM transactions ORDER BY $filter $direction"

 

Does this help?

 

 

 

 

 

 

I trimmed out the stuff that's not pertinent to your question and hope I didn't trim out anything important.

 

 

<?php require_once('../../Connections/db.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}
}

if (isset($_GET['filter'])) {
$filter = sanitize($_GET['filter']);
} else {
$filter = "transactionDate";
}

if (isset($_GET['dir'])) {
$direction = sanitize($_GET['dir']);
} else {
$direction = "DESC"; 
}

$maxRows_transactions = 20;
$pageNum_transactions = 0;
if (isset($_GET['pageNum_transactions'])) {
  $pageNum_transactions = $_GET['pageNum_transactions'];
}
$startRow_transactions = $pageNum_transactions * $maxRows_transactions;

mysql_select_db($database_db, $db);
if (isset($_POST['search'])) {
$searchString = sanitize($_POST['searchString']);
$query_transactions = "SELECT * FROM transactions WHERE transactionReasonText LIKE '%$searchString%' "

} else {
$query_transactions = "SELECT * FROM transactions ORDER BY $filter $direction";
}
$query_limit_transactions = sprintf("%s LIMIT %d, %d", $query_transactions, $startRow_transactions, $maxRows_transactions);
$transactions = mysql_query($query_limit_transactions, $db) or die(mysql_error());
$row_transactions = mysql_fetch_assoc($transactions);

if (isset($_GET['totalRows_transactions'])) {
  $totalRows_transactions = $_GET['totalRows_transactions'];
} else {
  $all_transactions = mysql_query($query_transactions);
  $totalRows_transactions = mysql_num_rows($all_transactions);
}
$totalPages_transactions = ceil($totalRows_transactions/$maxRows_transactions)-1;
