Hi there, i have a problem with this updater script which means that when i click update, change the record, and press submit-it says record changed or something like that, but does not actually do anything! Here is the code, it is supposed to be three files- list_file.php, update.php, update_ac.php, see what you can make of it. Much appreciated!
<?php
$host="localhost"; // Host name
$username="teachms_fooduse"; // Mysql username
$password="science0"; // Mysql password
$db_name="teachms_foods"; // Database name
$tbl_name="foods"; // Table name
// Connect to server and select database.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
?>
<table width="400" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>
<table width="400" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="3">
<tr>
<td colspan="4"><strong>List data from table</strong> </td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center"><strong>Food</strong></td>
<td align="center"><strong>Shop</strong></td>
<td align="center"><strong>Price</strong></td>
<td align="center"><strong>Update</strong></td>
</tr>
<?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
?>
<tr>
<td><? echo $rows['Food']; ?></td>
<td><? echo $rows['Shop']; ?></td>
<td><? echo $rows['Price']; ?></td>
// link to update.php and send value of id
<td align="center"><a href="update.php?id=<? echo $rows['id']; ?>">update</a></td>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<?php
mysql_close();
?>

$result=mysql_query($sql);
// if successfully updated.
if($result){
echo "Successful";
echo "<BR>";
echo "<a href='list_file.php'>View result</a>";
}
else {
echo "ERROR";
}
?>
Finish!
