That code (it seems to me) is vulnerable to SQL injection. Better fix that first...

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: Sort Order Description
I'm not clear on your question. The code I quoted, set forth below, has the text that ends up above the table. The following introduces the series of column headings with sort statements (of which the initial code is one): # write out title if ($sort_order == "asc") {$sort_title = "Ascending";} else {$sort_title = "Descending";} echo "Data Set Sorted By $sort_field in $sort_title Order\n"; # write out table heading echo "\n"; echo "\n"; The following is at the beginning of the script: # get sort order (if any) passed to script $sort_field = $_REQUEST['sort_field']; if (! $sort_field) {$sort_field = "(ssa1202.total/vapall.vapall)*100";} $sort_order = $_REQUEST['sort_order']; if (! $sort_order) {$sort_order = "desc";} Thanks.

For example, the sort line below results in the following text above the sorted table: "Data Set Sorted by (ssa1202.total/vapall.vapall)*100 in Descending Order". I'd prefer simply "Data Set Sorted by Percent in Descending Order." I tried naming the sort field "as Percent" but that didn't change anything. echo "PercentSort\n"; Ken Without seeing the code that produces the text above the table, its a bit hard to give any suggestions. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
