andyjcurtis Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I am trying to update a mysql table called AvItems with the value 'Torso' in the Equip "section?" I have been through the forums and cannot see anything to match. I dont mind if the page looses the onsubmit() and has a button instead. Though I would like to update the database and link back to the same page: There is a display that shows the item that is currently equiped, I have put this in to show it works, or doesn't as the case may be. Hope I got the code /code right this time. many thanks in advance Andy Curtis create table Items( ItemID integer unsigned auto_increment primary key, ItemName varchar(20) not null, Type varchar(10), UsedOn varchar(10), ); create table AvItems( AvItemID integer unsigned auto_increment primary key, AvID integer unsigned, ItemID integer unsigned, Equip varchar(); <?php $username="root"; $password="MyPassword"; $database="MyDataBase"; $AvName = "AndyJCurtis"; mysql_connect(localhost,$username,$password); @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); $AvAccR = mysql_query( " SELECT AvID FROM AvAcc WHERE AvName = '$AvName' " ); $AvID = mysql_result($AvAccR, 0, 'AvID'); /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// $Torso = mysql_query(" select ItemName from AvItems, Items where AvItems.itemID = Items.itemID AND AvItems.AvID = '$AvID' AND UsedON = 'Body' "); $TorsoE = mysql_query(" select ItemName from AvItems, Items where AvItems.itemID = Items.itemID AND AvItems.AvID = '$AvID' And UsedON = 'Body' AND Equip = 'Body' "); if(mysql_num_rows($TorsoE) != 0) { $TorsoItem = mysql_result($TorsoE ,0,"ItemName"); //mysql_close(); ?> <title></title> <head></head> <body> <form action="http://localhost/CI/Equip2.php" method="post"> <table border=1> <tbody> <tr> <td>Torso<BR> <?PHP echo "$TorsoItem <BR>"; ?> <select name="Torso" onchange="submit();" value =" Update"> <?PHP while($TorsoRow = mysql_fetch_array($Torso)) { echo "<option value=\"".$TorsoRow['ItemName']."\">".$TorsoRow['ItemName']."\n </option>"; } ?> </select> </td> </tr> //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// <?php if($_POST['Torso'] == 'Update') { mysql_query("update AvItems set Equip = '' where Equip='Torso'") or die("cant update unequip"); mysql_query("update AvItems set Equip = 'Torso' where ItemID='{$_POST['ItemName']}'") or die("cant update equip"); } ?> /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// </tbody> </table> </.form> </body> </html> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/211928-update-mysql-using-result-from-drop-down-box/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
