Help with echoing a message

[lingo5]

Hi, I need to echo the "Duplicate Entry Detected." inside a table in the html code of the page. At the moment it's echoing at the top of the page. I know it must be a simple thing to do....but I can't figure it out.

 

<?php 
$colname_checkdup_RS = "-1";  
if (isset($_POST['cliente_email'])) {
  $colname_checkdup_RS = $_POST['cliente_email'];
}
mysql_select_db($database_MySQLconnect, $MySQLconnect);
$query_checkdup_RS = sprintf("SELECT * FROM t_clientes WHERE cliente_email = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_checkdup_RS, "text"));
$checkdup_RS = mysql_query($query_checkdup_RS, $MySQLconnect) or die(mysql_error());
$row_checkdup_RS = mysql_fetch_assoc($checkdup_RS);
$totalRows_checkdup_RS = mysql_num_rows($checkdup_RS);

if($totalRows_checkdup_RS==1)
{
echo "Duplicate Entry Detected.";
}

else{

$query = "INSERT INTO database.t_clientes (company_name,cliente_calle,cliente_numero,cliente_local,cliente_poblacion,cliente_cp,cliente_provincia,cliente_tel,cliente_fax,cliente_movil,cliente_personadecontacto,cliente_email,cliente_password,cliente_logo) ".

"VALUES ('$company_name','$cliente_calle','$cliente_numero','$cliente_local','$cliente_poblacion','$cliente_cp','$cliente_provincia','$cliente_tel','$cliente_fax','$cliente_movil','$cliente_personadecontacto','$cliente_email','$cliente_password','$filePath')";

mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed : ' . mysql_error()); 

header("Location: PC_clientes_display.php"); 
}
}
?>

Instead of echo it directly save the string into variable and echo that variable later elsewhere.

 

$errorMsg =  "Duplicate Entry Detected.";

// Then echo it if the variable is set.
echo isset($errorMsg) ? $errorMsg : '';

Thanks a lot Tendolla, but this is still a little cofusing for me. Could you please indicat how to do that using my code?

Well..

 

// You replace this
echo "Duplicate Entry Detected.";

// with this line
$errorMsg =  "Duplicate Entry Detected.";

 

And then you put this somewhere in the page where you want the message to appear

echo isset($errorMsg) ? $errorMsg : '';
