Newbie question..
 
I'm rather embarrased to post this, but hey - we all have to start somewhere..

I've tried to integrate some options in to the admincp, but in the code where I want them to take effect, it causes a MySQL error.. I dare say there are certain rules to comply with in SQL queries - I'm still learning things..

Anyway, one of the created variables are $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit']


In this example, I wanted to apply it to this piece of code:
Code:
        $journal_recent_entries = $DB_site->query("SELECT j.enabled, u.username, e.journalid, e.title, e.entry, e.mood, e.np, e.timestamp, e.userid
                                FROM journal_entry e, journal j, user u
                                                                WHERE
                                                                e.userid = u.userid AND e.userid = j.userid
                                                                AND e.private = 0 AND j.enabled = 1
                                ORDER BY e.timestamp DESC
                                                                LIMIT 30");
And so, tried this:
Code:
        $journal_recent_entries = $DB_site->query("SELECT j.enabled, u.username, e.journalid, e.title, e.entry, e.mood, e.np, e.timestamp, e.userid
                                FROM journal_entry e, journal j, user u
                                                                WHERE
                                                                e.userid = u.userid AND e.userid = j.userid
                                                                AND e.private = 0 AND j.enabled = 1
                                ORDER BY e.timestamp DESC
                                                                LIMIT $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit']");
But received a parse error:
Quote:
Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /var/www/html/getest/journal.php on line 818


I figured I'd try and get around this by applying it to a second variable, so tried this:
Code:
$recentdisplaylimit = $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit'];
And then tried this code:
Code:
        $journal_recent_entries = $DB_site->query("SELECT j.enabled, u.username, e.journalid, e.title, e.entry, e.mood, e.np, e.timestamp, e.userid
                                FROM journal_entry e, journal j, user u
                                                                WHERE
                                                                e.userid = u.userid AND e.userid = j.userid
                                                                AND e.private = 0 AND j.enabled = 1
                                ORDER BY e.timestamp DESC
                                                                LIMIT $recentdisplaylimit");
But I received a MySQL error:
Quote:
Invalid SQL:
SELECT u.username, j.journalid, j.title, j.description, j.timestamp, j.userid, j.entries, j.views
FROM journal j
LEFT JOIN user u ON u.userid = j.userid
WHERE j.enabled = 1
ORDER BY j.views DESC
LIMIT
mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 7

mysql error number: 1064

Can anyone please tell me a way to get around these problems? :nervous:
Oh - and if the SQL query is messy, don't blame me.. I didn't write it.!

$recentdisplaylimit isn't being set so that's why you are receiving a SQL error. You need to make sure that variable has a value.

Oblivion Knight 05-12-2004 07:55 PM
$recentdisplaylimit = $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit'];

If $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit'] is set as 10 in the admin cp, doesn't $recentdisplaylimit become 10?

assassingod 05-12-2004 07:59 PM
According to the query it's not. I'm not sure why it would do that.

Oblivion Knight 05-12-2004 08:11 PM
Bleh.. How annoying.. :tired:

assassingod 05-12-2004 08:21 PM
What do you get when you echo $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit'] ?

Oblivion Knight 05-12-2004 08:53 PM
Sadly, nothing.. Nothing get's printed.
I used echo $vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit'];

the t-string error could've been fixed by doing this
PHP Code:
    $journal_recent_entries = $DB_site->query("SELECT j.enabled, u.username, e.journalid, e.title, e.entry, e.mood, e.np, e.timestamp, e.userid
                                FROM journal_entry e, journal j, user u
                                WHERE
                                e.userid = u.userid AND e.userid = j.userid
                                AND e.private = 0 AND j.enabled = 1
                                ORDER BY e.timestamp DESC
                                LIMIT $vboptions[journals_recentdisplaylimit]"); 
:)

Yeah, I tried that originally and got the same MySQL error..
However, I wasn't sure if that would work in the first place or not. Now I know it would.. =)

$vboptions['journals_recentdisplaylimit'] doesn't seem to be pulling the value from the database when used in the journal.php file though.. Is there something else I need to add to get it to work?
