PHP script help

Halfdeck · 2005-02-24, 12:48 PM

Barron's code looks like it should work.

When php/mysql code craps out, I usually:

1) print out the query using an echo statement, preferrably using mysql_error(); Sometimes what you think you're sending to MYSQL is not what's actually getting sent.

2) If I'm really stuck, I use phpadmin or some other mysql interface and play around with different queries to come up with a query that actually returns what I want. Then its just a matter of putting that query into the php script.
