tstats Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Thanks for all of your help on this subject -I have two pieces of code - the first set of code is here:[code]<html><head><title></title></head><body><?$ud_id=$_POST['ud_id'];$ud_score1=$_POST['ud_score1'];$ud_score2=$_POST['ud_score2'];$ud_diff=$_POST['ud_diff'];//connect to db with password above this linemysql_select_db($db , $link)or die("Couldn't open $db: ".mysql_error());mysql_query(" UPDATE acsb061 SET score1='$ud_score1',score2='$ud_score2', diff='$ud_diff' WHERE id='$ud_id'");mysql_close($link);require 'updatenext.php';?></body></html> [/code]The second set of code is here - which updates the database -[code]<html><head><title></title></head><body><?$ud_id=$_POST['ud_id'];$ud_score1=$_POST['ud_score1'];$ud_score2=$_POST['ud_score2'];$ud_diff=$_POST['ud_diff'];$db = "tourname_Tour"; $link = mysql_connect("localhost","tourname","tmrcdrdlr");if (! $link)die("Couldn't connect to MySQL");mysql_select_db($db , $link)or die("Couldn't open $db: ".mysql_error());mysql_query(" UPDATE acsb061 SET team1='$ud_team1' ,team2='$ud_team2',score1='$ud_score1',score2='$ud_score2', diff='$ud_diff' WHERE id='$ud_id'");mysql_close($link);require 'updatefirst.php';?></body></html> [/code]Ok - so here is my question. Right now, I am having to enter the $diff in the html form - how would I write it so that the $diff in code set 1 above would be calculated?I would just enter the two scores and the $diff field (which is score1 - score2) would automatically be calculated and then passed through to the updatenext.php file -Thanks for the help - Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/4121-finally-have-it-working-update-mysql-query/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooker Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 This should work fine in place of $ud_diff=$_POST['ud_diff'];[!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]$ud_diff= $ud_score1 - $ud_score2;[/quote] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/4121-finally-have-it-working-update-mysql-query/#findComment-14335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
