I tried to create a button which the function is to sort data either descending or ascending. However, I don't have idea how to do it
I did some research in internet, but none of them give the answer.
anyone know how to do it or some source code which can be a references???
this is my code

to

Few things:
You were pulling a query statement in the middle of a while where
you're still retrieving the previous statement. This would require
pulling the data into multiple arrays and then processing.
You should be using something like pdo or mysqli for this, but here's an
example with your current methods.
Also you were using isset on POST... if POST has anything in it, it will return as set.
Referencing a POST variable that is not set will cause an error, So I'm checking to make sure that country is set then I'm provided a NULL answer to the switch.
Example Code:
<?php
//connect to server
$connect = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
//connect to database
//select the database
mysql_select_db("fak_databases");
//submit button
if(!empty($_POST['formSubmit'])&&($_POST['formSubmit']=="Submit")&&(!empty($_POST['country']))){
$country = $_POST['country'];
} else {
$country = '';
}
if(!empty($_POST['asc']))
{
$append = " ORDER BY invention_title ASC";
}else{
$append = " ORDER BY invention_title DESC";
}
switch($country){
case 'US':
$query = "SELECT * FROM auip_wipo_sample WHERE applicant1_country='US'$append";
break;
case 'NZ':
$query = "SELECT * FROM auip_wipo_sample WHERE applicant1_country='NZ'$append";
break;
case 'JP':
$query = "SELECT * FROM auip_wipo_sample WHERE applicant1_country='JP'$append";
break;
default:
//all records
$query = "SELECT * FROM auip_wipo_sample$append";
}
//query the database
if($result = mysql_query($query)){
//fetch the result
print "<table border cellpadding=3>";
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
print "<tr>";
print "<td>".$row['invention_title'] . "</td>";
print "<td>".$row['invention-title'] . " </td></tr>";
}
//sorting the data, I got from internet but doesn't work
print "</table>";
} else {
//For Testing
echo "Query Failed:<br />$query";
}

I have this Add Edit Delete form, the problem is:
when I put everything and I click on ADD it says "Data added successfully." but the data isn't in my table of phpAdmin and it not shows in the page...
Or is simply because my hoster doens't work with MySQLi but with MySQL?
Without talking about SQL Injections because Im not so expert and dont know how protect from that, this pages will be protected with login area so only restricted members will access to it.

It not doesn't says or shows any errors or any other problems, it says only data added successfully and nothing else. I don't understand why it doesn't add any data in my tables, i checked everything again and again, maybe because i'm tired but i tried to rename tables names but nothing change, is the same...
Spotted three errors,
add.php: Column names should be without ''. Check the following
$result = mysqli_query($mysqli, "INSERT INTO user (steamUE,steamPW,steam_GC) VALUES ('$steamUE','$steamPW','$steamGC')");
edit.php: '' missing from $id. Check the following
$result = mysqli_query($mysqli, "UPDATE user SET steamUE='$steamUE',steamPW='$steamPW',steamGC='$steamGC' WHERE id='$id'");
delete.php: '' missing from $id. Check the following
$result = mysqli_query($mysqli, "DELETE * FROM user WHERE id='$id'");
If the connection with DB is successful, it must work (and this answer deserves a green tick from you :D).
Or is simply because my hoster doens't work with MySQLi but with
MySQL?
Wherever I faced issues, I got some error or a blank page.
Check your dB connection. Turn to mysqli, declair it with $sql with (errno), but call your param before $sql. Use if condition to check your connection. On your add please use prepared with $stmnt and execute it.
I have a database with course IDs and their corresponding course names. I'm trying to create a filter using a dropdown menu that filters the displayed courses.
Here's the code -
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<?php // sqltest.php
include 'header.php';
include 'nav.php';
require_once 'login.php';
$conn = mysqli_connect($hn, $un, $pw, $db);
if (!$conn) {
die ('Fail to connect to MySQL: ' . mysqli_connect_error());
}
echo '<form action="" method="post">
<select name="Course Name">
<option value="All" selected="selected">All course names</option>
<option value="Introduction to Data Science">Introduction to Data Science</option>
<option value="Database Management Systems">Database Management Systems</option>
<option value="Data Visualization">Data Visualization</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Search" name="submit" />
</form>';
$cname = isset($_POST['Course Name']) ? $_POST['Course Name'] : 'All';
if(isset($_POST)) {
if ($cname == 'Introduction to Data Science') {
$query = "SELECT * FROM courses WHERE Cname='Introduction to Data'";
} elseif ($cname == 'Database Management Systems') {
$query = "SELECT * FROM courses WHERE Cname='Database Management'";
} elseif ($cname == 'Data Visualization') {
$query = "SELECT * FROM courses WHERE Cname='Data Visualization'";
} elseif ($cname == 'All') {
$query = "SELECT * FROM courses";
}
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $query);
if (!$result) {
echo 'Could not get data: ' . mysqli_error($conn);
}
echo '<br>Available courses for hardcoded student 000-01-0002<br><br>';
echo '<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Course ID</th>
<th>Course Name</th>
<th>Add</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>';
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
echo '<tr>
<td>' . $row['cid'] . '</td>
<td>' . $row['Cname'] . '</td>
<td>Add</td>
</tr>';
}
}
echo '
</tbody>
</table>
</body>';
It displays all the courses when the page first loads but picking any one of the courses and clicking on submit does not change the initial table at all.
Remove the space in Course Name post field. It's not recognized as a valid POST field in your isset check because of the space.
Make it name="course_name" or something on select field.
how can I get multiple ID while POST multiple selection option value to next form? I only get the first selection ID from array. Can you guys can suggest any ideas to me?
here is my code when select the value.
<tr>
<label>Auditor: </label>
<select class="form-control" name="auditor[]" multiple="multiple" >
<?php
$result = $db->query("SELECT * FROM auditor");
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
echo '<option value="'.$row["auditor_name"].'">'.$row["auditor_name"].'</option>';
}
echo "</select>";
?>
</tr>
here is another code while POST to the next page.
$myselected = $_POST["auditor"];
if(count($myselected)>1){
$auditor = implode ("','",$myselected);
}else{
$auditor =$myselected;
}
$query10 = "SELECT * FROM auditor WHERE auditor_name IN ('$auditor') ";
$result10 = $db->query($query10);
$row10 = $result10->fetch_array();
?>
<form action="audit_action/audit_action.php" role="form" method="post" name="auditformdetails" onsubmit="return(validate());">
<table width='100%' border='0' class="table">
<tr>
<td colspan=6>Audit details</td>
<td colspan=6>Outlet details</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><b>Auditor:</b></td>
<td colspan='5'>
**<?php
echo'<input type="hidden" name="auditor_id" value="'.$row10["id"].'">';
foreach ($myselected as $auditor){
echo $auditor."<br>\n";
}
?>**
</td>
You can not compare string with mysql IN Clause. So, you have to connect each of your value with or condition in query as i written below.
$myselected = $_POST["auditor"];
$sql_cond = "";
if(count($myselected)>1){
foreach($myselected as $selected){
if($sql_cond != "")
$sql_cond.=" or auditor_name = ".$selected;
else
$sql_cond.=" auditor_name = ".$selected;
}
}else{
$auditor =$myselected;
}
$query10 = "SELECT * FROM auditor WHERE ".$sql_cond;
I'm trying to filter the search results of my MySQL database, I am wanting to filter the results by selecting values from two drop down boxes, the first box being Club and the second being Division so I can filter the results by Division and Club.
My issue is that when I make a selection in the club field nothing happens, I can select from the Division field and the results will display the selected division but nothing happens when I select by club.

UPDATE:
I changed the following code from this:
if ($_REQUEST["club"]='') {
$search_string = " AND (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%' OR (division LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["division"])."%')";
}
to this:
if ($_REQUEST["club"]<>'') {
$search_club = " AND (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%' OR (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%')";
}
and now it will allow me to filter by club and division but I still can't do just by club alone!
Change this:
if ($_REQUEST["club"]='') {
$search_string = " AND (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%' OR (division LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["division"])."%')";
and this:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$SETTINGS["data_table"]." WHERE id>0".$search_string.$search_division;
To this:
if ($_REQUEST["club"]<>'') {
$search_club = " AND club='".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."'";
}
And this:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$SETTINGS["data_table"]." WHERE id>0".$search_club.$search_division;
And it will work!
You are using = operator in your if statements, you want to use == comparison operator like follows:
if ($_REQUEST["club"] == '') {
$search_string = " AND (club LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."%' OR (division LIKE '%".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["division"])."%')";
}
if ($_REQUEST["division"] <> '') {
$search_division = " AND division='".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["division"])."'";
}
if ($_REQUEST["club"] == '' and $_REQUEST["division"] == '') {
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$SETTINGS["data_table"]." WHERE club = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["club"])."' AND division = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST["division"])."'".$search_string.$search_division;
} else {
$sql = "SELECT * FROM ".$SETTINGS["data_table"]." WHERE id>0".$search_string.$search_division;
}
My table has 4 columns. "isbn, author, title, price".
I want to search one of them combining all 4 fields.
Like: if author "kayle" write 4 books with same price ($50) but with different title, for that in search page, if i select author:kayle and hit search, then it shows all books with all different or may be same prices and titles. Now i want to select author:kayle and price:$50 at the same time, and hit enter. For that it will show only $50 prices books wrote by kayle and it will appear in the table with 4 rows.
I try to combine it but stuck with the second step searching query. Here is my code if any one understand what i want to do, please share it. Here is my code:
