Hi all, I am about to start on a script page which will loop thru a MySQL table and update records depending on the actions of the user. I propose to loop through, row by row performing a separate UPDATE statement for each row, unless someone can advise me of a better way (2d array?). I am migrating this site from Lasso where I needed to to do two iterations of the script: the first handles a single row input and the other handles multiple row inputs. Do I need to do two with php or will one be able to handle a count of 1 in a loop just as well as a multiple count?
