Re: [PHP] dynamic variables in sq?l
With my respects to your design may I suggest the following: 1- Table: CARS car_id car_name active_flag price 1 BMWY 100 2 FORD Y 50 etc. Then in your form you can hava a dynamic LOV: $sql = "select car_id, car_name from cars where active_flag = 'Y'"; $result = mysql_query($sql); echo ""; while (list($car_id,$car_name)=mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "$carname"; } echo ""; Then when the form is called you will pass the car_id. your sql will be $sql = "select price from cars where car_id = '$car_id'"; $result = mysql_query($sql); $car_price = mysql_result($result,0); //or //$car_price = mysql_fetch_row($result); I hope this helps. --- Raymond_Lilleødegård <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > mysql table is set up like this: > > -- > bmw | ford | mercedes | > -- > 100 | 50 | 120 | > > > It is just a very simple one. > > > > - Original Message - > From: "Jeff Sheltren" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Raymond Lilleodegard" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, January 25, 2002 8:00 PM > Subject: Re: [PHP] dynamic variables in sq?l > > > > Can you show how your mysql table is set up?

Re: [PHP] dynamic variables in sq?l
Can you show how your mysql table is set up? Otherwise I am not quite sure what you are trying to do with your SQL statement.

[PHP] dynamic variables in sq?l
Hi all! I have this form with some choices: Enter how many cars you want: ford bmw mercedes And then I am trying to get the price out of a table in my database with this code: $sql = mysql_query("SELECT '$car' FROM varetabell where carid='$carid' "); $myrow= mysql_fetch_array($sql); $x = $myrow["$car"]; $price = $x * $number; Shouldn't this work? Or am I missing something here?
