OK, I'm making my own Itemshop. But I'm not the best coder around and need some help with something simple.

I need multiple things to show up from the same MySQL table column. For example, here's a part of my file:

Code:

// select information
$shop_id     = $DB_site->query("SELECT shop_id FROM itemshops");
$shop_name   = $DB_site->query("SELECT shop_name FROM itemshops");
$shop_image  = $DB_site->query("SELECT shop_image FROM itemshops");
$shop_rating = $DB_site->query("SELECT shop_rating FROM itemshops");
$shop_profit = $DB_site->query("SELECT shop_profit FROM itemshops");
$shop_total  = $DB_site->query("SELECT shop_total FROM itemshops");

Now, if I have, for example, 3 Itemshops, how would I get the three Itemshop's attributes to show? Use the variables three times? :ermm:

Thanks.

here try this

PHP Code:


			
$shops = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM itemshops DESC LIMIT 3");

while ($shop = $DB_site->fetch_array($shops)) {

        $i = 1;

        $shop_id$i = $shop[shop_id];

        $shop_name$i = $shop[shop_name];

        $shop_image$i = $shop[shop_image];

        $shop_rating$i = $shop[shop_rating];

        $shop_profit$i = $shop[shop_profit];

        $shop_total$i = $shop[shop_total];

        $i++;

}

that will select the first 3 rows from your database and put each variable into for example

$shop_id1 will be the first shops id
and
$shop_total2 will be the second shops total

im pretty sure this should work

So then for the other Itemshops I'd just simply repeat that except change the value of $i to 2?

Or am I getting this wrong?

EDIT: Or change DESC LIMIT to 4 or above to include extra Itemshops?

OK, this is me testing your method.

PHP Code:


			
<?php



require("./global.php");



$shops = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM itemshops DESC LIMIT 3");

while ($shop = $DB_site->fetch_array($shops)) {

        $i = 1;

        $shop_id$i = $shop[shop_id];

        $shop_name$i = $shop[shop_name];

        $shop_image$i = $shop[shop_image];

        $shop_rating$i = $shop[shop_rating];

        $shop_profit$i = $shop[shop_profit];

        $shop_total$i = $shop[shop_total];

        $i++;

}

?>

<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

$shop_name2</body></html>

But I get an error:

PHP Code:


			
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/virtual/site139/fst/home/staticnetwork/public_html/forum/test.php on line 8

Any ideas? Gurus?

mr e · #5 02-01-2003, 04:22 PM

do this for all of them

PHP Code:


			
$shop_id[$i]

i think that should work

Hmmm... Well Here's my full file:

PHP Code:


			
<?php



require("./global.php");



$shops = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM itemshops"); 

while ($shop = $DB_site->fetch_array($shops)) { 

$i = 1; 

$shop_id[$i] = $shop[shop_id]; 

$shop_name[$i] = $shop[shop_name]; 

$shop_image[$i] = $shop[shop_image]; 

$shop_rating[$i] = $shop[shop_rating]; 

$shop_profit[$i] = $shop[shop_profit]; 

$shop_total[$i] = $shop[shop_total]; 

$i++; 

}

?>

<html>

<head>

</head>

<body>

<?php

echo "$shop_id[$i]";

?>

</body></html>

But it just doesn't show anything at all when I load up the page...

Anyone? This is really bugging me and I need answers fast.

Gotta finish this by the date...

mr e · #8 02-02-2003, 05:58 PM

you can't echo $shop_id[$i], it has to be $shop_id[0] or [1] etc, but are you going to use these variables in repeating rows or at all different parts of the page? like are you going to use $shop_id[0] at one part and $shop_id[1] in some completely different part?

Graphics · #9 02-03-2003, 03:08 PM

It's be like:

Code:

<tr>
 <td>
  $shop_id[0]
 </td>
</tr>
<tr>
 <td>
  $shop_id[1]
 </td>
</tr>

So they're not that far away. What's the diffrence anyway?

mr e · #10 02-03-2003, 09:16 PM

because if your going to do this in repeating rows there is a much easier way, this way lets you use these variables anywhere you want, if you want to do repeating rows, ex:
$shopid1, $shopname1 etc
$shopid2, $shopname2 etc

then do

PHP Code:


			
$shops = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM itemshops DESC LIMIT 3");

while ($shop = $DB_site->fetch_array($shops)) {

     print "<tr><td>$shop[shop_id]</td><td>$shop[shop_name]</td></tr>"

}

this will print table rows with the shop id and shop name in the td's until the DESC LIMIT is reached or the end of your db
