Maq Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Do you have an editor with a syntax highlighter? This should have been easy to spot with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crystalnano Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 Do you have an editor with a syntax highlighter? This should have been easy to spot with one. yes i am using rapid php but error was not corrected elseif ( $result = mysql_query"UPDATE news SET title='{$title}', text1='{$text1}', text2='{$text2}' ",$connect"); echo "<b>Thank you! News UPDATED Successfully!<br>You'll be redirected to Home Page after (4) Seconds"; echo "<meta http-equiv=Refresh content=4;url=index.php>"; $done="TRUE"; ) is this code is correct?

dreamwest Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Make another elseif clause based on database input elseif(something){ mysql_query("UPDATE news SET title='{$title}', text1='{$text1}', text2='{$text2}' ,$connect"); echo "<b>Thank you! News UPDATED Successfully!<br>You'll be redirected to Home Page after (4) Seconds"; echo "<meta http-equiv=Refresh content=4;url=index.php>"; $done="TRUE"; } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dreamwest Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 looking at your code you dont really need the database elseif Find: elseif{$result = mysql_query"UPDATE news SET title='{$title}', text1='{$text1}', text2='{$text2}' ",$connect");} } replace: mysql_query("UPDATE news SET title='{$title}', text1='{$text1}', text2='{$text2}' ",$connect"); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
