Re: making links out of records? newbie

Thanks, that seems to work fine. Richard Lynch wrote:

Hi there, i have a page called squad.php which queries a mysql table and outputs all the squad members from by football team. This is fine, however i would like to make each returned record into a hyperlink which when clicked on displays more details about that player. I believe i need to use the $PHP_SELF command, how i do this though i do not know. Here is what i have so far: <?php // Connecting, selecting database $link = mysql_connect('localhost', '', '') or die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); echo 'Connected successfully'; mysql_select_db('database') or die('Could not select database'); // Performing SQL query $query = 'SELECT * FROM tblusers WHERE squadnum <99'; $result = mysql_query($query) or die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error()); // Printing results in HTML echo "<table border=1>\n"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)) { echo "\t<tr>\n";

$id = $row['id'];

foreach ($row as $col_value) {

echo "\t\t<td><a href=squad_member.php?id=$id>$col_value</a></td>\n";

} echo "\t</tr>\n"; } echo "</table>\n"; ?> Any help much appreciated, nick. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
