banacan Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Matt, This is what I'm trying to understand in my post "Help, struggling to understand navigation based record selection". Can you more fully explain how this is done in Dreamweaver? Maybe answer my post since it contains the specifics of my question. I certainly would appreciate any help.

banacan Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Thorpe, Now a new question. I want the same page to be used for any product selection. That means the selection will not always be based on the same id. For example, if I'm searching for Melons, I need the group_id = 3 (fruit), but if I'm searching for Chicken I need the category_id = 2 (meats). As it is now, my WHERE clause and $_GET[] both have group_id hard coded. How can I make this work where the $_GET and WHERE are determined by what is in the URL query? Thanks for starting me off.

trq Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Can wee see your database schema? It would seem that meat and fruit would both be catigories in my eyes.

banacan Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I'm giving simplistic examples which are hypothetical because the actual database would have divisions, groups, segments, and categories that wouldn't make any sense to you or anyone else unless you knew the products and how they relate. These are the tables. As you can see PRODUCTS is the main table and contains foreign keys. PRODUCTS NULL DIVISIONS GROUP SEGMENT CATEGORY prod_id n div_id group_id seg_id cat_id mod_num n div_name group_name seg_name cat_name div_id n group_id n seg_id y cat_id y title y desc y thick y width y height y project y image n Staying with the food hypothetical: FOOD Fresh | Frozen Meats | Fruits & Vegetable | Fruits Melons Berries Citrus Beef Chicken Lamb Oranges Grapefruit As you can see, (I have abbreviated the concept) I have Divisions: Fresh and Frozen. I have Groups: Meat and Fruits & Vegetables. I have Segments: Fruits and Vegetables, and I have Categories: Melons, Berries, Citrus. I need to be able to select by div_id: Fresh or Frozen, and cat_id: Citrus to be able to see Fresh Oranges. I hope this helps you understand where I'm coming from. Many thanks.
