28rain Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 This code only returns 1 result from the table, when there are actually four?! <? $db_name = "testDB"; $table_name = "watch"; $connection = mysql_connect("127.0.0.1", "****", "****") or die(mysql_error()); $db = mysql_select_db($db_name, $connection) or die(mysql_error()); $sql = "SELECT id, format, title, artist_fn, artist_ln, rec_label, my_notes, date_acq FROM $table_name ORDER BY id"; $result = mysql_query($sql,$connection) or die(mysql_error()); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $id = $row['id']; $format = $row['format']; $title = stripslashes($row['title']); $artist_fn = stripslashes($row['artist_fn']); $artist_ln = stripslashes($row['artist_ln']); $rec_label = stripslashes($row['rec_label']); $my_notes = stripslashes($row['my_notes']); $date_acq = $row['date_acq']; if ($artist_fn != ""){ $artist_fullname= trim("$artist_fn $artist_ln"); } else { $artist_fullname = trim("$artist_ln"); } if ($date_acq == "0000-00-00"){ $date_acq = "[unknown]"; } $display_block = "<p><strong>$title</strong> on $rec_label, by $artist_fullname<br> $my_notes <em>(acquired:$date_acq, forat:$format)</em></p>"; } ?> <html> <head> <title>My Music (Ordered by ID)</title> </head> <body> <h1>My Music: Ordered by ID</h1> <? echo "$display_block"; ?> <p><a href="my_menu.html">Return to menu.</a></p> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 You're overwriting $display_block variable in each loop pass Change $display_block = "<p><strong>$title</strong> on $rec_label, by $artist_fullname<br> to $display_block .= "<p><strong>$title</strong> on $rec_label, by $artist_fullname<br> = means "replace content on the left, with content on the right" .= means "add string to the right to the string on the left" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
