  2. Basic Php System: View/edit/delete/add Records

    in PHP

    Posted

    @Gunny:

     

    You have a route_id set in your URL, correct? It should look like: edit.php?route_id=[number]. Route_id should be numeric -- only consisting of numbers -- otherwise you will get an error.

     

    Does that help get you started?

     

     

    Hi Ben,

     

    Yes my url ends like this editroute.php?route_id=13

     

    Thanks for your help, I have been going over and over the code for hours now :bash: but still cannot find where the issue is!

     

    Cheers

  3. Basic Php System: View/edit/delete/add Records

    Hi Ben,

     

    Great example here, I have been mulling over a way to do this for days!

    I have obviously had to amend your code somewhat to fit in with my Database setup and required data. The edit.php is successfully pulling the data required.

    However when I edit the data and click on submit I am getting the Error displayed. I have amended the error messages to identify where the error is, but cannot locate the rror in the code. The error being thrown is for the id being invalid. Can you see where I have gone wrong in the below code at all? Many Thanks Gunny

     

    <?php
/*

// creates the edit record form
// since this form is used multiple times in this file, I have made it a function that is easily reusable
