I'm writing a hack (ha! If you can even call it that - I'm not that talented)...and basically, I'd like to use SQL queries in the same format as vBulletin - since that seems to be the most logical thing to do...however, I can't get it to display more than one entry...any advice? I'll obviously need a while loop, but I'm not sure how to format it...

Here's what I have (which produces an error):

Code:

$query2=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT * FROM savethreads WHERE saveuser='$username'");
$result = mysql_query($query2,$DB_site);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
	$savethreadid = $row["savethreadid"];
echo("$savethreadid");

Any thoughts?

Oh, also: I've created a custom template which is pulled onto a custom PHP page in my forums directory (thanks JimF!

)...however the template displays first, with all my queries and their results below it all - how can I stick it in the middle of the template? I don't recall seeing actual queries used in any of the other templates...so I know there must be some other way.

Thanks!

Code:

$query2=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM savethreads WHERE saveuser='$username'");
while ($row = $DB_site->fetch_array($result)) {
	$savethreadid = $row["savethreadid"];
echo("$savethreadid");
}

Thanks Ed - very cool.

Anyone got any thoughts on the template problem? I'll bet the answer is simple - yet it escapes me somehow.

Uh...the other thing still doesn't work I'm afraid:

Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /usr/home/webdev/mycoding/spunkyjunk.com/docs/testboard/admin/db_mysql.php on line 82

Using this code:

Code:

$query2=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM savethreads WHERE saveuser='$username'");
while ($row = $DB_site->fetch_array($result)) {
	$savethreadid = $row["savethreadid"];
echo("$savethreadid");
}

You need to replace $result with $query2

Oops, sorry 'bout that - thanks rangers.

Bingo! My mistake - still have a bit to learn about PHP's interaction with SQL (obviously)

Anyone else got the info on my template problem? It's one of the last hurdles in finishing the hack!

Hmmm...maybe I'll be forced to figure it out myself, hehe.

It's okay - I can handle it! I hope!

Post the code you have for your template.

Here's a new template I've created for one of the pages used in my hack:

Code:

{htmldoctype}
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>$pagetitle</title>
$cssinclude
$headinsert
</head>
<body>
$header

<table border="0" width="100%"><tr>
<td valign="top" align="left"><a href="index.php"><img src="$titleimage" border="0"></a></td>

<td valign="middle" align="center" nowrap>
$fivelinks
</td></tr></table>

<table border=0 cellpadding=4 cellspacing=1 width=100%>
<tr bgcolor="{tableheadbgcolor}"><TD width="100%">

<normalfont color="{tableheadtextcolor}" class=thtcolor><B>vBulletin Message</B></normalfont>

</td></tr>
<tr bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><td width="100%">
WANT STUFF TO GO RIGHT HERE!</td></tr></table>

<p align="center">$forumjump</p>

$footer

</body>
</html>

Obviously I want to put all my SQL queries and echo statements right where "WANT STUFF TO GO RIGHT HERE!" is...but how can I do that in the template? For the other templates on the script I see variables in that spot...$errormessage, or the like. I have an idea of how to do this, but definetly need some help!
