fenway Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 It's not hard, per se, simply issuing an update call -- what type of tutorial are you looking for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slipperyfish Posted February 15, 2006 Author Share Posted February 15, 2006 Well, iv created a membership script. And i would likee to add a form for a user to change their email address. I want to learn how to replace one field with a new value, submitted by the user. Or just a general statement name for me to be able to google it and find out more..

fenway Posted February 15, 2006 Share Posted February 15, 2006 I can't think of a tutorial off-hand... basically, you make an HTML form, populate it with their current e-mail, give them an input field for their new e-mail, and then they POST the form to a PHP script. This PHP script checks the value of $_POST['newEmailAddress'] (or whatever you called the field), and runs a DB UPDATE statement for the user record with the uid defined by the current session / logged in user. Viola -- you're done -- and then you can send them back to a confirmation page with a redirect.Does that make sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
