colleyboy Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I have a simple form to add details to the database. I want to use the same form layout to call back details for editting and updating. The main page is showroomedit.php which lists (in an array) the records in the database. I have added an edit.php but cant seem to work the code out. Can some one point me in the right direction. here is edit.php: <?PHP include('dbconnect.php') ?> <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Barry Ottley Motor Co - Quality Used Motors - Stanford-Le-Hope, Essex</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY LINK="#000000" ALINK="#000000" VLINK="#000000"> <CENTER><IMG SRC="logo.jpg"></CENTER> <CENTER> <TABLE WIDTH="840" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" BORDER="0"> <TR> <TD WIDTH="186" valign="top"> <BR> <CENTER><A HREF="index.html"><IMG SRC="homepage.jpg" alt="Homepage" border="0"></A></CENTER> <CENTER><A HREF="showroom.php"><IMG SRC="showroom.jpg" alt="Our Online Showroom" border="0"></A></CENTER> <CENTER><A HREF="location.html"><IMG SRC="ourlocation.jpg" alt="Our location" border="0"></A></CENTER> <CENTER><A HREF="aboutus.html"><IMG SRC="aboutus.jpg" alt="About Us" border="0"></A></CENTER> <CENTER><A HREF="contactus.php"><IMG SRC="contactus.jpg" alt="Contact Us" border="0"></A></CENTER> </TD> <TD WIDTH="30" valign="top"> </TD> <TD valign="top"> <FONT SIZE="2" FACE="ARIAL"> <CENTER><A HREF="addcar.html"><IMG SRC="vehicleadd.jpg" border="0"></A><A HREF="showroomconfig.php"><IMG SRC="vehicleedit.jpg" border="0"></A><A HREF="showroomconfig.php"><IMG SRC="vehicledelete.jpg" border="0"></A></CENTER> <CENTER><B>Update a Vehicle</B></CENTER> <BR> <?php $query1="SELECT cars FROM CarName='$carname', CarTitle='$CarTitle', CarPrice='$carprice', CarMiles='$carmiles', CarDescription='$cardesc'"; mysql_query($query1); mysql_close(); ?> <form action="editvehicle.php" method="post"> <CENTER>Vehicle Name:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarName" value="<?php echo $carname; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Type:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarTitle" value="<?php echo $cartitle; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Price:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarPrice" value="<?php echo $carprice; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Mileage:</CENTER> <CENTER><input type="text" name="CarMiles" value="<?php echo $carprice; ?>"></CENTER> <br> <CENTER>Vehicle Description:</CENTER> <CENTER><textarea name="CarDescription" rows="10" cols="30" value="<?php echo $cardesc; ?>"></textarea></CENTER> <br> <CENTER><input type="Submit"></CENTER> </form> </TD> </TR> </TABLE> <BR><BR><BR><BR> <CENTER><FONT FACE="VERDANA" SIZE="1"> This website was designed and is hosted by <A HREF="http://www.IRCDirect.co.uk">IRC Direct Website Design™</A> 2010 </CENTER> <BR> <CENTER><A HREF="admin.php">Employee Area</A> </BODY> </HTML> That is not even showing me the table details at all. Im lost . There is an "Update" link in each array in showroom.php in which when the user clicks it opens edit.php . They update the form as they wish... then click update and it updates the database and sends them back to showroomedit.php Much help would be appreciated ! Cheers paul if your out there still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 The SELECT query syntax is wrong. That looks like you used UPDATE syntax with a SELECT query. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colleyboy Posted September 19, 2010 Author Share Posted September 19, 2010 what do i need to write then :S :'( I need the form to show the current data in that record. when they modify it they click "update" and it updates the record in the database and redirects them back to showroomedit.php Many thanks!
