I keep doing this code wrong. Can someone please help me get it right? Here is what I have:

 

//OPEN TRESURE CHESTS
if ($action == 'open'){

echo "<h1>Burg Village</h1>
<h3>Open All Treasure Chests</h3>";

//check acquired table for existing field values
$check_table_acquired = mysql_query("select * from acquired", $conn);
$num_rows_acquired = mysql_num_rows($check_table_acquired);

    //if acquired table is empty
    if ($num_rows_acquired == 0){
    
//add the record to the table
$add_record = "insert into acquired values ('', '$identity', 'Burg Inn', '1')";
$add_record_res = mysql_query($add_record, $conn) or die(mysql_error());
    
    }//end empty acquired table if statement
    
    //if acquired has existing records, check if player has acquired items from location
$check_acquired = mysql_query("select * from acquired where identity = '$identity'");
$num_rows_acquired = mysql_num_rows($check_acquired);

while ($acquired_items = mysql_fetch_array($check_acquired)){
$location = $acquired_items['location'];
$acquired = $acquired_items['acquired'];
}

    //if player has records in the acquired table
    if ($num_rows_acquired >= '1'){
    
    //if player has acquired items from location
    if ($location == 'Burg Inn' && $acquired == '1'){
    
    echo "You have already acquired all items from this location. <a href=location.php?location=inn>Back</a>.";
    
    }//end of acquired items from location if statement
    
    }//end of $num_rows_acquired =< 1 if statement
    
    //if player has not acquired items from this location
    else {
    
//check inventory for existing field values
$check_inventory = mysql_query("select * from inventory", $conn);
$num_rows_inventory = mysql_num_rows($check_inventory);

    //if inventory is empty

    }
    
    }//end of $num_rows_inventory >= 1 if statement
    
    }//end of not acquired items if statement

}//end action if statement

 

What I need to do is this:

 

If the action is 'open', I need to check if any records exist in the acquired table. If records don't exist, I need to add the record. If records exist, i need to check if the player has already acquired the items from this location. If the player has acquired the items, then tell them so. If the player has not acquire the items, insert the record, then check the inventory table. If the inventory table is empty, insert the items. If the inventory table has existing records, check if the player has existing items. If the player has existing items, check if each item exists. If it exists, update the quantity. If it doesn't, insert the item. Can anyone please help me with what I am doing wrong??? Please, it is driving me CRAZY!!!

 

I think I am missing the part where it inserts the record for the acquired items if the player does not have a record in the acquire table.

Right now, if the acquired table is empty, the record inserts and the inventory inserts, but the items in the inventory do not update the quantity as expected, they add a whole new record, except for the Angel Tear; it updates that one item properly. But if the acquired table is not empty, if will not insert the record into the acquired table nor will it insert the items into the inventory table. I can't figure this out!!!! Please help me!!!

 

And if the player already has a record in the acquired table that signifies that they have acquired the items from the location, it doesn't say anything. I know I have coded it wrong, I just can't figure out what I am missing.

I'm still working on this page. So far I have the section that checks the acquired table for records working properly. It checks if the table is empty. If it is not empty, it checks if the player has a record, and if they have a record, it checks if they have acquired the items from the location. If they have, it tells them. If they haven't, it inserts the record into the acquired table. If the acquired table is empty, it inserts the record into the table. Here is the working code so far:

 

//OPEN TRESURE CHESTS
if ($action == 'open'){

echo "<h1>Burg Village</h1>
<h3>Open All Treasure Chests</h3>";

//check acquired table for existing field values
$check_table_acquired = mysql_query("select * from acquired", $conn);
$num_rows_acquired = mysql_num_rows($check_table_acquired);

//if acquired table is empty
    if ($num_rows_acquired == 0){
    
//add the record to the table
$add_record = "insert into acquired values ('', '$identity', 'Burg Inn', '1')";
$add_record_res = mysql_query($add_record, $conn) or die(mysql_error());

echo "You have acquired the following items:<br /><br />
Angel Tear<br />
Star Light<br />
Herb<br />
Dragonfly Wing<br /><br />

The items have been added to your inventory. <a href=location.php?location=inn>Continue</a>.";

//ADD ITEMS HERE
    
    }//end of empty acquired if statement
    
    if ($num_rows_acquired >= 1){
    
//if acquired has existing records, check if player has acquired items from location
$check_acquired = mysql_query("select * from acquired where identity = '$identity'");
$num_rows_acquired = mysql_num_rows($check_acquired);

while ($acquired_items = mysql_fetch_array($check_acquired)){
$location = $acquired_items['location'];
$acquired = $acquired_items['acquired'];
}

//if player has records in the acquired table
    if ($num_rows_acquired >= '1'){
    
    //if player has acquired items from location
    if ($location == 'Burg Inn' && $acquired == '1'){
    
    echo "You have already acquired all items from this location. <a href=location.php?location=inn>Back</a>.";
    
    }//end of acquired items from location if statement
    
    }//end check if player has records in acquired table
    
    if ($num_rows_acquired == 0){
    
//add the record to the table
$add_record = "insert into acquired values ('', '$identity', 'Burg Inn', '1')";
$add_record_res = mysql_query($add_record, $conn) or die(mysql_error());

echo "You have acquired the following items:<br /><br />
Angel Tear<br />
Star Light<br />
Herb<br />
Dragonfly Wing<br /><br />

The items have been added to your inventory. <a href=location.php?location=inn>Continue</a>.";
    
    //INSERT ITEMS HERE
    
    }//end check for player not having acquired items from location
    
    }//end of if statement for existing records in acquired table

}//end of action if statement

 

Now I need to get the inventory section working. I need to check if the inventory table is empty. If it is, I need to simply insert all items. If it is not empty, I need to check if the player has items. If the player has items, I need to check if each item exists in the table. If it does, I need to update the quantity. If it does not, I need to insert the item into the table. This is where I have the most frustration.

Wow, I finally got it working. Here is what I did:

}//end of action if statement

 

It only took eight tries!!!
