Cep Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Yes it is possible, for each row that you output in your table, you can output a direct html link. You do not need to use POST.

boo_lolly Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 i would use $_GET. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/36765-php-selecting-products-using-the-post-mode/#findComment-175392 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 $_POST is slightly more secure than GET, as less random users will know how to edit post data. Plus it looks nicer to the user than having all that junk in the URL. But to answer the original question, you'd have to make forms, and use javascript to give that link a submit function onclick. In this case, it'll be easier to use the URL and get the data with GET Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/36765-php-selecting-products-using-the-post-mode/#findComment-175396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottybwoy Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Ceps option is the easiest and probably best, although it will need another page. But passing info like <a href="page.php?option=2">Client</a> can supply info to your php to bring up the relevant product info into your template. It can also be done via a button and having a func in your script to grab it, like if (isset($_POST['buy'])) then having a switch case for each 'buy' id. Hope that helps Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/36765-php-selecting-products-using-the-post-mode/#findComment-175420 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cep Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 No actually I didnt even mention the GET method, I just meant a link pointing to each page. I was going on the assumption he had a page for each rather than a dynamic page for all.
