Hi Dani,
I have already posted for the first code, now i want to move on to the next which is issuing books. (due to the closeness of the deadline, i will be posting all areas where i'm having problems)
The issue_book.php page is supposed to capture the ISBN, current system date and the user's login id.
using these details a number of sql statements should execute, as follows:-
- Insert Into the 'issue books' table, all captured data i.e ISBN, sys date and login id.
- Move book data from 'books' table, based on the ISBN to an 'archive' table.
-
Delete from 'books' table, data that equals ISBN.
In reading on different pages, different answers are given, but it still doesn't help, ,however the code for the issue books form is as follows:-<?php echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"utf-8\"?".">"; ?><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

var d=new Date();
var monthname=new Array("1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10","11","12");
//Ensure correct for language. English is "January 1, 2004"
var TODAY = d.getFullYear()+"-"+monthname[d.getMonth()]+"-"+d.getDate();
//required format -> var TODAY=monthname[d.getMonth()] + " " + d.getDate() + ", " + d.getFullYear();
//--------------- END LOCALIZEABLE ---------------
