Hi the following is not sowing any thing on the webpage. Where I went wrong?
The following is a link to profile.php
?>
<a href="profile.php?id=<?php echo $id ?>"><?php echo $id;?></a>
<?PHP
======================================= This is the linked php file profile.php
<html>
<body bgcolor='#4c5865'>
<p style="position: absolute ; top: 0; text-align: left><font face="geneva" size='1' color="#ccc"><a href="cbs.php" ><b><font color="white">Home</font></p></a>
<?php
include("db1.php");
$id=$_GET['id'];
$result = $mysql_query ("select agt,dvd FROM agttot where agt='$id'");
// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
$ac =$row[0];
$dc =$row[1];
$bc =$row[2];
// echo "<tr bgcolor='#a9a9a9'><td align='right'>";
print $ac;
// echo "</td><td align='right'><b>";
print $dc;
}
?>
</body>
</html>
You didn't add ;
after $id
in this line:
<a href="profile.php?id=<?php echo $id ?>"><?php echo $id;?></a>
mysql_query()
is a function (also don't use mysql_*
functions anymore, they're deprecated!) so it shouldn't be called with a $
in front here:
$result = $mysql_query ("select agt,dvd FROM agttot where agt='$id'");
You should be escaping the '$id' before it gets put into your SQL.
Your mysql_query contains an extra $, before the function name:
$result = **$**mysql_query ("select agt,dvd FROM agttot where agt='$id'");
should be
$result = mysql_query ("select agt,dvd FROM agttot where agt='$id'");
PS, avoid the mysql_ set of functions, they are/will be deprecated very soon. Use mysqli_ or PDO.
I'm not 100% sure what your problem is. There are a few area in question I'd check:
Is $id
set? Does it have an integer value?
Syntax error here:
<a href="profile.php?id=<?php echo $id ?>"><?php echo $id;?></a>
need a semi-colon (;) column 39. (not 100% sure if needed in this case but always be sure)
Is there records in the database?
Where is the connection sequence?
Have you selected a database?
Should you still be using mySQL?
Seeing as mySQL is now depreciated here is a mySQLi example (procedural):
$con=new mysqli_connect('location','user','password','database');
$query=mysqli_prepare('SELECT agt,dvd FROM agttot WHERE agt=?',$con);
mysqli_stmt_bind_param(, $query, 'i', intval($_GET['id']));
mysqli_stmt_execute($query);
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($query,$agt,$dvd);
while(mysqli_stmt_fetch($query)){
$result[]='<tr><td>'.$agt.'</td><td>'.$dvd.'</td></tr>';
}
mysqli_stmt_close($query);
mysqli_close($con);
echo(isset($result))?$result:$_GET['id'].' < is this a valid record?';
try this

$id=$_GET['id'];
$result = $mysql_query ("select agt,dvd FROM agttot where agt='$id'");
// keeps getting the next row until there are no more to get
while($row = mysql_fetch_array( $result )) {
$ac =$row['agt'];
$dc =$row['dvd']; // you dont have to make numbers here but the column names as it saids in your query
$bc =$row[2]; // you dont have to make numbers here but the column names as it saids in your query
// echo "<tr bgcolor='#a9a9a9'><td align='right'>";
echo $ac.'<br />';
// echo "</td><td align='right'><b>";
echo $dc.'<br />';
