Hi guys,

I am very new to using PHP and am working on my first site so I'm
sorry
if this question is trivial. I have created a table that returns the
first row from a table. It has the date in the first column and then
five more columns with numbers. I would like to get the sum of those
five columns. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'm pasting my code below.

Thank you.

hi,

you can try to change this query

$query_Edrive = "SELECT servers.`Date`, servers.exchangemb1e,
servers.exchangemb2e, servers.exchangemb3e, servers.exchangemb4e,
servers.exchangemb5e FROM servers ORDER BY servers.`Date` DESC";
to

$query_Edrive = "SELECT servers.`Date`, servers.exchangemb1e +
servers.exchangemb2e + servers.exchangemb3e + servers.exchangemb4e +
servers.exchangemb5e FROM servers ORDER BY servers.`Date` DESC";

i think that solves yout problem.

sorry about my english, i'm newbie.

Hi Gustavo,
Unfortunately this did not work for me. What I would like to do is keep
the table and the data that I have already and add a new cell or even a
text box with the total from the table.

Thanks for your help,

Kevin

Do you wanna get the total from the table ? or from row ?
if you wanna get the total from the table, i dont know do that in sql
code.
I think that you should do with php code.

for example : in your sql you can add more a colunm with the sun of the
others

$query_Edrive = "SELECT servers.`Date`, servers.exchangemb1e,
servers.exchangemb2e, servers.exchangemb3e, servers.exchangemb4e,
servers.exchangemb5e, servers.exchangemb1e + servers.exchangemb2e +
servers.exchangemb3e + servers.exchangemb4e +
servers.exchangemb5e as sun FROM servers ORDER BY servers.`Date` DESC";

and to try that:

$query = mysql_query($query_Edrive);

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($query) {
$total row += $row['sun'];
}

i hope to be help you.

Hi Gustavo,

 

With your direction I have got it working now.   This is the code I
used:

 

                 $GetTotal = $row_dailySum['Sum(servers.exchangemb1e +
servers.exchangemb2e + servers.exchangemb3e + servers.exchangemb4e +
servers.exchangemb5e)']; 

                 echo number_format ($GetTotal)

 

Thank you very much.  I would not have gotten it without your help.

 

Kevin
