yakk0 Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 I'm trying to get it to display 5 latest piece of information added. But it seem to always display 2-3 and its not in order. Can anyone tell me what the problem may be? <?php include "config.php"; $query="SELECT * FROM data ORDER BY story_num ASC"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); $i=0; for ($i=0; $i<=5; $i++) { if ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { $story_title=mysql_result($result,$i,"story_title"); $story_num=mysql_result($result,$i,"story_num"); $story_note=mysql_result($result,$i,"note"); if ($story_note==1) { echo "<img src='image/notice.png'> <a href='show_story.php?story_num=$story_num'><font color='white' size='2'>$story_title</font></a><br>"; $i++; } else if ($story_note==2) { echo "<img src='image/updated.png'> <a href='show_story.php?story_num=$story_num'><font color='white' size='2'>$story_title</font></a><br>"; $i++; } else if ($story_note==3) { echo "<img src='image/event.png'> <a href='show_story.php?story_num=$story_num'><font color='white' size='2'>$story_title</font></a><br>"; $i++; } else if ($story_note==4) { echo "<img src='image/important.png'> <a href='show_story.php?story_num=$story_num'><font color='white' size='2'>$story_title</font></a><br>"; $i++; } else echo "<img src='image/notice.png'> <a href='show_story.php?story_num=$story_num'><font color='white' size='2'>$story_title</font></a><br>"; $i++; } } mysql_close(); ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/137207-solved-if-statement-not-working-as-plan/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
cytech Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Try this: <?php include "config.php"; // putting a limit for the first 5 on the query $query="SELECT * FROM data ORDER BY story_num ASC LIMIT 0,5"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); // loop through the return while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo "<img src='images/notice.png'> <a href='show_story.php?stor_num={$row['story_num']}' style='color: #fff;font-size: 10pt;'>{$row['story_title']}</a><br />"; } ?> Just to note, the issue with you code was that you where using "$i++" within the if statements, the for loop will automatically increment this number for you, so essentially each if statement was adding "2" to $i.

yakk0 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 rhodesa the script you wrote out did list the 5, but there was no link visible. But thanks for trying. cytech your script works fine, but you took out my if statement and now I'm back to square one with if statement. But thanks for fixing the list for 5. Right now I'm trying to use $row['note'] but it doesn't seem to be working. Sorry I'm still new to learning PHP and SQL so hope you guys can assist me. <?php include "config.php"; // putting a limit for the first 5 on the query $query="SELECT * FROM data ORDER BY story_num ASC LIMIT 0,5"; $result=mysql_query($query); $num=mysql_numrows($result); // loop through the return while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $note = $row['note']; if ($note == 1) { echo "<img src='image/notice.png'> <a href='show_story.php?stor_num={$row['story_num']}' style='color: #fff;font-size: 10pt;'>{$row['story_title']}</a><br />"; } elseif ($note == 2) { echo "<img src='image/updated.png'> <a href='show_story.php?stor_num={$row['story_num']}' style='color: #fff;font-size: 10pt;'>{$row['story_title']}</a><br />"; } else echo "<img src='image/notice.png'> <a href='show_story.php?stor_num={$row['story_num']}' style='color: #fff;font-size: 10pt;'>{$row['story_title']}</a><br />"; } } ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/137207-solved-if-statement-not-working-as-plan/#findComment-716898 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhodesa Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 what do you mean there was no link visible? if you do a view source on the generated page, what does it look like?

yakk0 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 http://www.yakk0.byethost14.com/News/show_all.php if you go into the above link it. It will show what I'm trying to say.

rhodesa Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 it is not finding any data to display. or rather...it's finding the rows, but the data isn't being assigned to $row. are you sure you copied the code correctly that i posted? specifically this line: for ($i=0; $row = mysql_fetch_array($result) && $i < 5; $i++) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/137207-solved-if-statement-not-working-as-plan/#findComment-716932 Share on other sites More sharing options...

yakk0 Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 Now there is a number 1 on each line, but its right under the notice image. Also still no link. Also I just want to say I think the array for displaying the images isn't working correctly either. I don't think they are all suppose to display notice. Sorry for making this so hard.

rhodesa Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 uh...that can't be....that means $row is the number 1 when it should be an array. can you please post the actual code?
