Hi all, on my website ive got a thing that says when someone has got a message

This is my code

<?php

include('config.php');
$get = mysql_query("SELECT * from pmessages where touser = '$logged[username]' order by id desc");$nummessages = mysql_num_rows($get); 
if ($nummessages == 0) 
{ 
echo ("");
} 
else 
{ 
if ($nummessages == 1);
$markread = mysql_query("update pmessages set unread='read' where id < '$_GET[msgid]'"); 
echo ("You Have A Message");
}
// main one
?>

When the person has read the message i would like it so it wont say that person still has a message, but when they have read the message it still shows it .

 

Anyone know how i can stop that?

Thanks for you help

Well, you'll want to edit this in the PHP that handles displaying the PM message. When the user opens the PM (I assume via URL), you can get the PM id number and update the DB from there.

 

Also, make sure you do the same if the user deletes the message without reading it. That still counts as a read message...
