Re: [PHP] Include Part 2
Is this to pull the rows out of a database?? You could start with a simple example, which is just a basic config setting, and use the $myrow array in your sql while loop to do a lot of the work. ? // set your column names $colsToSelect = 'title, format, category'; // select $sql = SELECT {$colsToSelect} FROM tablename LIMIT 2; $result = mysql_query($sql); while($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { foreach($myrow as $key = $value) { echo {$key}: {$value}br /\n; } echo br /\n; } ? For the above query, this would echo something like: title: contents of titlebr / format: contents of format br / category: contents of category br / br / title: contents of titlebr / format: contents of format br / category: contents of category br / br / The next from there, to get more control over your rows might be an array with the columns you wish to query...

It's not going on to the other two. Now in my php page I have this... $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result); $row; Now this doesn't work. No kidding. What is the line $row; supposed to do exactly? But this does. $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result); $title = $myrow[title]; $format = $myrow[format]; $category =$myrow[category]; Yes, this looks better. You should place your array keys in quotes, such as $myrow[title]. I don't see how this relates at all to your example above. So want I wanted to do but I am see you can was to make $row be called from db_info.inc so that if lets say I wanted to add ratings I can add it to the db_info.inc. It's best to either include your code and reference file names or leave them out entirely. You sound like you assume we are looking at your screen and know what db_info.inc is. The reasoning for this is about 50 pages and I am getting tried of change each one I like to be able to change just one file. You know make it easier. Better design. I think you have the right idea. I really have no idea what the question is, but you should maybe consider the include() function to help you out. For example, you could have a script fetch_row.inc like this: $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result); $title = $myrow[title]; $format = $myrow[format]; $category =$myrow[category]; Then every time you wanted to fetch a row from a result set consisting of these columns, you could just do this: include(/path/to/fetch_row.inc); Maybe that helps? I'm not really understanding what code you are repeating 50 times. Happy hacking. Chris -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

What I was wanting to do was store the myrows under let say, db_info.inc file. So that I can add or delete what myrows I want to call on. I am thinking this what I need to do... Function row ($row) { //These are the rows to call on... $title = $myrow[title]; $format = myrow[format]; $category =$myrow[category]; } This way I can add more myrow to call upon at a later date or delete for that matter.
