Would Appreciate Help Making New Title Linkable To A Detail Page


WD1812

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

The following code creates a page on which site visitors can enter comments. Once the comments are posted, they can then be viewed by any other site visitor.

 

I want to make each new comment Title linkable to a detail page, on which would appear all of the information that was included for that specific title.

 

I have been at this for weeks now, and still a struggling newbie. Could someone please show me the code I need to enter and/or the modifications I need to make?

 

*** I didn't include the code for the Table, so as to save space.***

 

Thank you!

<?php

mysql_free_result($GetFeedback);

Use PHP tags and I'll take a look.

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

Wouldn't it be as simple as (assuming the comments have a unique ID in the database.)

<li><strong><a href="./index.php?detail=<?php echo $row_GetFeedback['id]; ?>><?php echo $row_GetFeedback['title']; ?>"><?php echo $row_GetFeedback['title']; ?></a></strong><br />

 

Then

if (isset($_GET['detail'])) {

//echo detail

}
