Re: writing to mysql using php

Shams, Most database actions you want your user to do should be limited to them writing to one record and/or updating that one record. If instead you want to update information on several records, then you'd need a statement like: $table="your_table_name"; $query=mysql_query("update $table set column_name='what ever' where other_column_name='something else'"); Hope this helps, Hugh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Enrique Garcia Briones" <xxiengb@csxxi.sepc.edu.mx> To: "Shams" <shamskhanmalik@hotmail.com>; <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 12:10 PM Subject: RE: [PHP] writing to mysql using php > If there were no more replies... you can use it by means of BUCLES, isn't > it? > > BR, Enrique > > -----Mensaje original----- > De: Shams [mailto:shamskhanmalik@hotmail.com] > Enviado el: Martes, 03 de Diciembre de 2002 04:32 a.m. > Para: php-general@lists.php.net > Asunto: [PHP] writing to mysql using php > > > Hi, > > I'm relatively new to PHP and mySQL. > > I currently have a simple table created within a MySQL database.
