    Question PHP/MySQL Form Help for the Frustrated

    Hi Team,

    Not sure if this is the right forum for this question so feel free to move it if I am in the wrong place...

    So here is my problem... I have a form that allows me to edit a member's information that I have stored in my DB. Before getting to this form, the user searches on a last name to identify the record to edit. Once selected, this is the form that is displayed:

    Sorry in advance it is a long form with a lot of information....

    PHP Code:
    <?php 
    // Create a variable for the Database ID of the member selected to edit
    $member_edit $_POST['member_edit'];
    //Check to make sure a member was actually selected to edit
    if ($member_edit == "")
    {
    echo 
    "<p>You must select a member before you can edit.  Please use the back button and try again.";
    exit;

    //Now we can connect to the Database
    $hostname "localhost"// Our DB server.
    $username "XXXXXXX"// The username for the database.
    $password "XXXXXXX"// The password for the username above.
    $table "XXXXX"// The name of the table we are working with.
    $dbname "XXXXX"// This name of the database the table belongs to.
    MYSQL_CONNECT($hostname$username$password) OR DIE("DB connection unavailable");
    @
    mysql_select_db"$dbname") or die( "Unable to select database");
    //We query the DB for the selected member 
    $query mysql_query("  SELECT `application_date`, `applicant_fname`, `applicant_lname`, `street1`, `street2`, `city`, `state`, `zipcode`, `phone`, `email`, `profession`, `skills`, `membership`, `family_fname1`, `family_lname1`, `family_relationship1`, `family_fname2`, `family_lname2`, `family_relationship2`, `family_fname3`, `family_lname3`, `family_relationship3`, `family_fname4`, `family_lname4`, `family_relationship4`, `family_fname5`, `family_lname5`, `family_relationship5`, `family_fname6`, `family_lname6`, `family_relationship6`, `consent_signature`, `member_bal_prev`, `member_cur_dues`, `member_amt_billed`, `member_amt_paid`, `member_bal_due`, `member_status`, `member_title`, `member_notes`, `ID`
    FROM `jos_membership` WHERE `ID` ='

    Everything appears to work correctly in the form above. I get the data from the Database, I can properly get it to display in the form, etc....

    The problem that I am having starts at this point....

    Assuming the Member's information has been updated and "form is submitted" it goes to the following PHP Update Script to update the information in the database....

    PHP Code:
    <?php 
    // Open the existing session
    session_start();
    //Test to see if there are post variables to update to the database
    $ID $_POST['ID'];
    print 
    $ID;
    if (
    $ID == "")
    {
    echo 
    "<p>The ID was not captured for the record to be updated.  Update Failed.</p>";
    exit;

    // Set the Database Connection Variables
    $hostname "localhost"// Our DB server.
    $username "XXXXX"// The username for the database.
    $password "XXXXX"// The password for the username above.

    //Create a variable to manage the database connection
    $dbc MYSQL_CONNECT($hostname$username$password);
    if (!
    $dbc) {
        die(
    'Could not connect: ' mysql_error());
    }

    So here is the issue...

    The $ID variable that is displayed on the edit form is not the same $ID variable that arrives at the update form....

    To help illustrate here is an example...

    The ID for Pugh in the Database is "233"
    The ID for Pugh that is displayed on the form edit page is "233"
    The ID that arrives at the Update Script as _POST [ID] is "45"

    Because the ID is not being properly passed, I can not get the data to actually update in the DB.

    To answer your next question, I think the "45" value is the last varaible passed in the _Post Array....

    Also, I do not get any PHP or mysql erros except this one:

    Code:
    45You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'ID='45' WHERE ID ='45' LIMIT 1' at line 41
    Any ideas? I have been at this for 2 days now and I just can't seem to crack this nut...

    Thanks,
    Rick
    Thanks,

    Wink Solved...

    So I was able (after another 3 hours) to figure out my dumb mistake... thought I would post it out here just incase anyone else makes the same dumb mistake...

    Here is what was wrong....

    1. I had the "NAME" and "ID" properties of two different forms fields duplicated. This was causing the last form field with the assigned value to be passed in the _POST array.

    2. I added a hidden form field to contain the Member ID.

    3. The hidden form field had to use the php PRINT function to pass the value, not the php ECHO function...

    Also... just I came across a great short-cut to dump the contents of the _POST array so that I could find out exactly what was being included.... Here is the shortcut:

    PHP Code:
    <?php
    // Open the existing session
    session_start();
    // Dump all from values from the _POST array
    print_r($_POST)
    ?>
    I also wanted to provide the corrected version of the edit and update PHP files incase anyone wants to reuse to help their own efforts...

    Here is the correct EDIT.php file:

    PHP Code:
    <?php 
    // Open the existing session or use the one that is open.
    session_start();
    // Create a variable for the Database ID of the member selected to edit
    $member_edit $_POST['member_edit'];
    //Check to make sure a member was actually selected to edit
    if ($member_edit == "")
    {
    echo 
    "<p>You must select a member before you can edit.  Please use the back button and try again.";
    exit;

    //Now we can connect to the Database
    $hostname "localhost"// Our DB server.
    $username "XXXXXXX"// The username for the database.
    $password "XXXXXXX"// The password for the username above.
    $table "XXXXXXXXXX"// The name of the table we are working with.
    $dbname "XXXXXXXX"// This name of the database the table belongs to.
