Pikachu2000 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Add the 3 indicated lines, and see what exactly is in the post array. If they aren't there, disable javascript in your browser, enter something in the text fields and try it again. if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { echo '<pre>'; // <----- ADD print_r($_POST); // <----- ADD echo '</pre>'; // <----- ADD $start = $_POST['start']; $end = $_POST['end']; $sql = "SELECT * FROM `corps` WHERE `notedate` BETWEEN '$start' AND '$end'" Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/226854-variable-not-passing-from-form/#findComment-1170542 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pikachu2000 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 What do you mean nothing is showing up? Blank screen, or just not the data you expected?

tjverge Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 well besides the Array ( [start] => 1-2-2011 [end] => 5-2-2011 [submit] => Look Up ) there are no records showing up, there are records that would match in the database table Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/226854-variable-not-passing-from-form/#findComment-1170548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjverge Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 I may have an idea what the problem is the entered date format is DDMMYYYY, where as the mysql format is YYYYMMDD, I'm not sure how to convert it to match.

Pikachu2000 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Ah, then you should change the format the date picker sends it over in the $_POST array. Change ddmmyyyy to yyyymmdd and that should do it, if it's the same date picker I've used in the past.
