Can anyone help? I really have no idea what to edit


Thanks.

Please look for pre-solved problems before reposting them.

Do i just paste this code in my php files?

1.
      $query = 'SELECT * FROM `security` LIMIT 0 , 30';
   2.
      $result = mysql_query($query, $conn);
   3.
      if (mysql_numrows($result) == 0)
   4.
      {
   5.
      echo "Result set is EMPTY";
   6.
      } else if (!$result) {
   7.
      echo "Result set is NULL";
   8.
      } else {
   9.
      echo "Result set is VALID";
  10.
      $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
  11.
      $a = array_search($user, $row);
  12.
      echo $a;
  13.
      }

Pretty much, all you need to do is replace the sql with your own and put all of your data handling where I've specified:

$query = '[B]YOUR SQL HERE[/B]';
      $result = mysql_query($query, $conn);
      if (mysql_numrows($result) == 0)
      {
      echo "Result set is EMPTY";
      } else if (!$result) {
      echo "Result set is NULL";
      } else {
      echo "Result set is VALID";
      $row = mysql_fetch_row($result);
      [B]YOUR DATA HANDLING HERE[/B]      
      }

Good luck.

Sorry, Im still a novice, what do you mean by data handling?

I take it my 'SQL' is the database?

Data handling is what you want to do to your data one you've extracted it from the database, display it in a table, perform calculations etc.

Your SQL is the statement you execute to get the data out of the database (eg "SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE condition bla bla bla)

On a side note, osCommerce is one of the most complex third party programs I have had the chance to work with, and if you are a php novice it might be a better idea to cut your teeth on something a little simpler, or at least avoid customising it as much as possible.
