thewhat Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I've got a form and a script that updates a number of columns in my DB upon activation. I'm now trying to add a section that adds into a certain column. For instance, say the column has the number 15. The piece of code should add 5 more, updating it to 20. How would I do this?

GingerRobot Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Well, the query would be something like: UPDATE tbl SET col = col +5 Im not entirely sure if that's what you were asking though.

thewhat Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 $addition = ($userdata['user_AvailableTurns'] + 5); $result = dbquery("UPDATE ".$db_prefix."users SET user_LastManagement= '$now', user_AvailableTurns = '$addition' WHERE user_id='".$userdata['user_id']."'") or die(mysql_error()); This worked. Thank you. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/84982-solved-adding-into-a-db/#findComment-433388 Share on other sites More sharing options...
