Update Only Against Unique Id Number

[justlukeyou]

A number of time I have asked why the vardump echoes "array(3) { ["userLoggedIn"]=> int(1) ["userEmail"]=> string(23) "somewhere@yahoo.com" ["userID"]=> string(2) "id" }" how can I find the answer to that?

Answer: because that's what the array contains.

So how come the code suggested doesn't work? I also tried to echo the id nothing appears. Any suggestions why please.

There's no $row in your latest code.

[justlukeyou]

When I enter a row nothing is echoed. I also tried the email which is featured in the array.

 

Is their else that could be wrong. I cam get the code to work when I manually enter an id, now I just need to read the id of the user.

I've been a right plonker. Instead of gathering the information from a post array I should have been gathering it from the session.

 

Nothing else can be said than I was completely wrong. I just couldn't see the wood for the trees.

Done it, wahoo.

 

Just needed this:

 

 $id = $_SESSION['userID'];

Done it, wahoo.

 

Just needed this:

 

$id = $_SESSION['userID'];

 

... which is what I said in my first post within this thread:

 

As kicken wrote, $int is nothing, which will make your SQL query invalid. What you would want to do is to use $id instead, although this variable should probably be set based on a session instead of a post value. I assume you don't want users to be able to update other users' data by changing a form value.
