by the way, thanks for the help Giles! It works great!

You're welcome. Glad to be of service. I'm suffering data overload at the moment, and can't work out how to organise it in my database.

hey Giles, can a while loop be set to a variable?

If you mean "Can a while loop be set to be dependent upon a variable" then yes.

while(condition) can have almost anything in it, so you can have

$var = 0;
while($var <10)
{
echo $var."<br>\n";
$var++;
}

Which will list you the numbers 0 to 9.

I dunno yet, lemme get to see the cars first

no i mean like, say i want to call a variable, then have it execute a while loop, like this:

$var = (while stuff here)

echo "yarbles $var";

because i cannot have it just print out, i need it to replace a {string} in a db on print out..

Oh, OK.

Then No. You need to use a function. I assume that you're fetching multiple records from the database and setting $var to be equal to all of them? Like:
$record[1] = "Hello"
$record[2] = "gt2"
therefore
$var = "Hello gt2"

Is that right?

Might need to go back to PM on this one!

What do you expect from a 1970s 2.5L NA V6?

Sheesh. Some folk are never satisfied!

 

[-Fred-]

how do they fare? are they fun to drive?

 

[Acid X]

ok, well here is an example of what my while loop is gonna be:

while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_row($result)) {
printf("<tr><td>%s %s</td><td>%s</td></tr>\n", $myrow[1], $myrow[2], $myrow[3]);
}

... and ofcourse my db searc and stuff is already there..

It's still 97.6bhp/l, from a 1970s engine! (and I knew it was a Ferrari engine - the one from the 246 Dino, to be precise)

I think you want to do this after the mysql_query statement:

$noofrows = mysql_numrows($result)
for($i = 0; $i<$noofrows; $i++)
{
$myrow = mysql_fetch_row($result);
printf("<tr><td>%s %s</td><td>%s</td></tr>\n", $myrow[1], $myrow[2], $myrow[3]);
}


Make sense? Or does that send you off in a different direction?
