I am looking to have a value from my users table column name (profile_img) insert into my news table to column name (profile_img1) with the other information the users submits.
Here is the query I am using so far
$name=$_REQUEST["title"];
$stdate=$_REQUEST["sdate"];
$endate=$_REQUEST["edate"];
$staddr=$_REQUEST["staddr"];
$addr2=$_REQUEST["staddr2"];
$city=$_REQUEST["city"];
$state=$_REQUEST["state"];
$zip=$_REQUEST["zip"];
$desc=$_REQUEST["desc"];
$file=$_REQUEST['photo'];
$link=$_REQUEST["link"];
$user=$_REQUEST["user"];
$profile_img1=$_REQUEST["profile_img1"];
$rsvp=$_REQUEST["rsvp"];
$query = "INSERT INTO news (fname,stdate,endate,addr1,addr2,city,state,zip,name,size,type,content,link,description,user,profile_img1,rsvp) VALUES('" . mysql_real_escape_string($name) . "','$stdate','$endate','" . mysql_real_escape_string($staddr) . "','" . mysql_real_escape_string($addr2) . "','" . mysql_real_escape_string($city) . "','$state','$zip','".str_replace([",",":","\"","\\", "/", "*"," ","$","&","?",";","'","!","(",")","|","~","<",">","=","[","]","{","}","#","^","%","=","#","+","è","é"],"",$name) ."-".$stdate."-".$file."','0',' ',' ','" . mysql_real_escape_string($link)."','" . mysql_real_escape_string($desc) . "','$user','" . mysql_real_escape_string($rsvp)."')";
The name for the profile_img1 will go after the user value in the query but I cannot figure out how to get the name of the profile_img in the users table to the news table
here is what I have been trying:
$query = "INSERT INTO news (fname,stdate,endate,addr1,addr2,city,state,zip,name,size,type,content,link,description,user,profile_img1,rsvp) VALUES('" . mysql_real_escape_string($name) . "','$stdate','$endate','" . mysql_real_escape_string($staddr) . "','" . mysql_real_escape_string($addr2) . "','" . mysql_real_escape_string($city) . "','$state','$zip','".str_replace([",",":","\"","\\", "/", "*"," ","$","&","?",";","'","!","(",")","|","~","<",">","=","[","]","{","}","#","^","%","=","#","+","è","é"],"",$name) ."-".$stdate."-".$file."','0',' ',' ','" . mysql_real_escape_string($link)."','" . mysql_real_escape_string($desc) . "','$user','(SELECT profile_img FROM users WHERE username=`username`)''" . mysql_real_escape_string($rsvp)."')";
using this method causes the profile_img1 column in the news table to read (SELECT profile_img FROM users WHERE username=username) instead of what the profile_img column reads in the users table.
Also if I add a second INSERT query
$q2 = mysql_query("INSERT INTO news (profile_img1) SELECT profile_img FROM users WHERE username='username'");
the query causes a new row to be created in the news table displaying only the profile_img from the users table, separate from the other data the user will enter.
My desired result is to have the user submit the data to the news table and the user image from the users table will be inserted into the news table in the row with the other data submitted so the data submitted and the user image is displayed together.
If you need more clarification please let me know
Don't you already have the value for profile_img1 ?
$profile_img1=$_REQUEST["profile_img1"];
But anyway, of course if you do 2 inserts it will insert 2 lines.
You want to look up UPDATE .
And mysql_insert_id() to get the id of the last insert executed.
As in (at the end, after you know what you're doing):
UPDATE news SET profile_img1 = "whateveritis" where id = theidoftherowyoujustinserted
The short answer is to do INSERT (...) SELECT ...
e.g.
$name=$_REQUEST["title"];
$stdate=$_REQUEST["sdate"];
$endate=$_REQUEST["edate"];
$staddr=$_REQUEST["staddr"];
$addr2=$_REQUEST["staddr2"];
$city=$_REQUEST["city"];
$state=$_REQUEST["state"];
$zip=$_REQUEST["zip"];
$desc=$_REQUEST["desc"];
$file=$_REQUEST['photo'];
$link=$_REQUEST["link"];
$user=$_REQUEST["user"];
$profile_img1=$_REQUEST["profile_img1"];
$rsvp=$_REQUEST["rsvp"];
$query = "INSERT INTO news (fname,stdate,endate,addr1,addr2,city,state,zip,name,size,type,content,link,description,user,profile_img1,rsvp) SELECT '" .
mysql_real_escape_string($name) . "','$stdate','$endate','" . mysql_real_escape_string($staddr) .
"','" . mysql_real_escape_string($addr2) . "','" . mysql_real_escape_string($city) . "','$state','$zip','".
str_replace([",",":","\"","\\", "/", "*"," ","$","&","?",";","'","!","(",")","|","~","<",">","=","[","]","{","}","#","^","%","=","#","+","è","é"],"",$name) .
"-".$stdate."-".$file."','0',' ',' ','" . mysql_real_escape_string($link)."','" . mysql_real_escape_string($desc) .
"',provile_img,'" .
mysql_real_escape_string($rsvp)."'" .
" FROM users WHERE username = '{$username}'";
This should turn into something like:
INSERT INTO news (fname, stdate, profile_img1, rsvp)
SELECT 'Bob', '2017-09-02', profile_img, 0
FROM users
WHERE username = 'jimbob'
The long answer involves pleas to not do your own escaping and re-structuring this bit to make it easier to read, and by extension, easier to maintain later
I have a table
items: id, userid, item_name, item_description
I want to update a row and used the following sql statement for it.
$updateQuery = "UPDATE items SET item_name = '$item_name',
item_desc = '$item_desc' WHERE userid = '$userid'
AND item_name = '$old_name'";
But it fails. Is it because I used the item_name field, which is to be updated, for selecting the row?
I think I see the problem
item_desc = '$item_desc'
"4 columns id, userid, item_name, item_description."
Change your query to
$updateQuery = "UPDATE items SET item_name = '$item_name', item_description = '$item_desc' WHERE userid = '$userid' AND item_name = '$old_name'";
you not update item_name because you used it in where clause
or
you can echo this string and run in database terminal to verify.
Try :
$updateQuery = "UPDATE items SET item_name = '" . $item_name . "', item_desc = '" . $item_desc . "' WHERE userid = " . $userid . " AND item_name = '" . $old_name . "';"
Please notice, in your query, you are referring the last column as "item_desc" which does not exist, as the actual column name is "item_description" .
MySQL is treating "item_desc" as a separate column in your table, but unable to find it, and hence the error.
Also, it is a good idea to pay attention to how you are concatenating your variable to your query. After equal to(=) sign, always use this notation ' ".$variable_name." ' to concatenate. Example:
select column1, column2 from table1 where (column1 = ' ".$variable_name." ' && column2 = ' ".$variable_name." ') ";
You have to concatenate the strings.
$updateQuery = "UPDATE items SET item_name = '" . $item_name . "', item_desc = '" . $item_desc . "' WHERE userid = " . $userid . " AND item_name = '" . $old_name . "'";
Instead of item_desc, it should be item_description.
I have a table in mysql named person
this a simple code of insertion of data in the table person
$id = "1";
$firstname = "afif";
$lastname = "kaled";
$test = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root");
if ($test) {
mysql_select_db("basetest", $test);
}
$sql = " INSERT INTO `person` SET
`id` = '" . $id . "',
`firstname` = '" . $firstname . "',
`lastname` = '" . $lastname . "' ";
#mysql_query($sql, $test);
I want to modify this function
test()->
Id ="11",
Firstname ="afif",
Lastname ="kaled",
%% here I want to register this data in the table person .
so the table person will have this data
11 afif kaled
I want to know if is it possible to register data from erlang to table mysql
I have already done an example of transfer data from erlang to txt file with this code :
exporttxt()->
F = fun() -> mnesia:foldl(fun(X,Acc) -> [X|Acc] end, [],person) end,
{atomic,L} = mnesia:transaction(F),
file:write_file("test.txt",[io_lib:format("~p\t~p\t~p~n",[F1,F2,F3]) ||
#person{id = F1,firstname = F2,lastname = F3} <- L]).
but now as I already said I want to know is it possible or not to send data from erlang to a table in mysql
Of course it is possible.
Try to use a search before asking questions.
