Hi There,

 

I have got this code:

 

function displayPosts() {
        $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM social ORDER BY id DESC") or die(mysql_error());
        while( $result = mysql_fetch_assoc($query) ) {
            echo '
                    <div id="socialnewsfeeditem">
                        <p id="newsfeeditemperson">
                            '.$result["fullname"].'
                        </p>
                        <p id="newsfeeditemcontent">
                            '.$result["content"].'
                        </p>
                        <p>
                            <center>
                                <a href="social.php?id='.$result["id"].'&do=like">Like!</a>
                            </center>
                        </p>
                        <div id="likes">
                            <p>'.self::displayLikes($result["id"]).'</p>
                        </div>
                    </div>
            ';
        }
    }
    function displayLikes($id) {
        $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM sociallike WHERE postid = '$id'") or die(mysql_error());
    }
    function like($id, $username) {
        $query2 = "INSERT INTO sociallike VALUES('$id', '$username')";
        mysql_query($query2);
    }
 
But when I try to displayLikes the all come up all over the place on the page and I have no clue why it is doing this.
I will upload the whole (functions.php) functions and the (social.php) php file on here.
 
Many Thanks for Your Help

social.php

functions.php

displayLikes does not display anything. You might need to describe what you are actually doing.

 

 function displayLikes($id) {
        $query = mysql_query("SELECT full_name FROM sociallike WHERE postid = '$id'") or die(mysql_error());
        while( $result = mysql_fetch_assoc($query) ) {
            echo $result['full_name']."likes";
        }
    }
 
Theres the corrected code.
Apologies again.
