Typical... I make a forum posting and then figure out what's wrong... vB wasn't happy because there wasn't a space between the = and the 'searchvalue'.
I've made some progress but I've still having a problem...
Here's my PHP code:
Code:
<?php
$selected = $_POST['selected'];
require_once('global.php');
$dbuser="username";
$dbpass="password";
$dbname="database"; //the name of the database
$chandle = mysql_connect("localhost", $dbuser, $dbpass)
or die("Connection Failure to Database");
mysql_select_db($dbname, $chandle) or die ($dbname . " Database not found." . $dbuser);
$counter = 0;
// Lets get the Recent Reviews
$queryz = ("SELECT
rp_products.title,
rp_reviews.username,
rp_reviews.userid,
rp_reviews.review,
rp_reviews.cat,
rp_reviews.product,
rp_products.bigimage,
rp_products.cat,
rp_products.userid
FROM
rp_reviews
INNER JOIN rp_products ON (rp_reviews.product=rp_products.id)
WHERE
(rp_reviews.review IS NOT NULL) AND
(rp_products.approved = 1) AND
(rp_reviews.userid = {$vbulletin->GPC['userid']})
ORDER BY
rp_reviews.`date` DESC LIMIT 5");
$result = mysql_query($queryz) or die('Query failed: ' . mysql_error());
// Printing results in HTML
echo "<div align=\"center\">\n";
echo "<table width=\"100%\">\n";
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
$title = $row['title'];
$review = $row['review'];
$username = $row['username'];
$product = $row['product'];
$bigimage = $row['bigimage'];
$cat = $row['cat'];
$review = strip_bbcode($review, $stripquotes = false, $fast_and_dirty = false, $showlinks = false);
// split the message at the first paragraph
$preview = preg_split('#(\r\n|\n|\r)#', $review, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
$displaypreview = $preview[0];
echo "\t<tr align=\"center\" valign=\"top\">\n";
echo "\t\t<td width=\"20%\" valign=\"top\"><a href=\"http://domain.com/party/showproduct.php\?product={$product}\"><img src=\"http://domain.com/party/data/{$cat}/thumbs/{$bigimage}\" alt=\"{$title}\" height =\"66\"border=\"0\" ></a><br />
{$title}<br/><br/></td><td align=\"left\" valign=\"top\">{$displaypreview}<br/><br/><a href=\"http://domain.com/party/showproduct.php\?product={$product}\">Read the full review of {$title}.<br/><br/></td>\n";
echo "\t</tr>\n";
}
echo "</table>\n";
echo "</div>\n";
mysql_close($chandle);
?>
When I view the user profile of 'person with userID of 1959' the output is nothing. If I change
(rp_reviews.userid = {$vbulletin->GPC['userid']})
to
(rp_reviews.userid = '1959')
then the script works fine / as expected so I suspect I might be using the wrong variable in my query.
