echo for each update?

[RON_ron]

I'm trying to update several columns. How do I echo messages to confirm each update is successful when each column is updated?

 

$SomeVar = $_POST['finco'];
mysql_query("UPDATE adxone SET trace='$address' WHERE username = '".$SomeVar."'");
echo "first message";

$SomeVar = $_POST['finco'];
mysql_query("UPDATE adxone SET trace='$address' WHERE username = '".$SomeVar."'");
echo "second message";

Um...like that?

 

What exactly is the problem?

$SomeVar = $_POST['finco'];
if(mysql_query("UPDATE adxone SET trace='$address' WHERE username = '".$SomeVar."'")){
   echo "first message";
}

$SomeVar = $_POST['finco'];
if(mysql_query("UPDATE adxone SET trace='$address' WHERE username = '".$SomeVar."'")){
  echo "second message";
}

?

  Thanks Jocka.

Going a bit further... how can I make a expiry date/time for each update section.

 

E.g.

$cutoffTime = 44640; //Cutoff set to one month
$drawTime = mktime($20, $5, 0, $12, $25, $2010); //8:05PM on 25/12/2010

if($drawTime-time() < $cutoffTime*60)
{
    $sentOk1 = "Expired!.";
    echo "sentExpired=" .$sentOk1;
}
else
{
$SomeVar = $_POST['finco'];
if(mysql_query("UPDATE adxone SET trace='$address' WHERE username = '".$SomeVar."'")){
   echo "first message";
}

$cutoffTime = 44640; //Cutoff set to one month
$drawTime = mktime($20, $5, 0, $12, $25, $2010); //8:05PM on 25/12/2010

if($drawTime-time() < $cutoffTime*60)
{
    $sentOk1 = "Expired!.";
    echo "sentExpired=" .$sentOk1;
}
else
{
$SomeVar = $_POST['finco'];
if(mysql_query("UPDATE adxone SET trace='$address' WHERE username = '".$SomeVar."'")){
  echo "second message";
}
