Error trying to display SQL statement in html table

   Frihost Forum Index -> Scripting -> Php and MySQL
 


welshsteve
Hi everyone, I'm having trouble getting a HTML form to submit, run a SQL statement and display the data on a webpage. The strangest thing about this is that I have got this working on one area of my site, but now I want to use the same script for another area, it doesn't work.

The area that works fine is http://www.ldbsa.co.uk/s_stats.php. The area that doesn't work is http://www.ldbsa.co.uk/snookertables.php


Here's the code for snookertables_view.php which isn't working.
Code:

..and here's the code for s_statsresults.php which is working. I can't see why I get the error on the first one, because it's virtually the same code on this one.

Hey, I don' have enough time to look at all the code properly but I will make an example of what I do to display information from the database on a webpage when you want it to display more then one row in the database:

Code:

<table border="1" width="500" align="center">
<?php
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users");
while( $row = mysql_fetch_array($sql) ){
echo "<tr><td>$row[username]</td></tr>";
}
?>
</table>


That is just an example I made where it gets all the information of every user in the table "users" and then diplays every user's username in a seperate row. Does it help? I can help more later if it hasnt already been solved.
welshsteve
Thanks. I'll take a look at that and try it. Ideally I'd liek to do it like below though. I've slightly re-jigged it now
Code:


<?php
$division = $_REQUEST['division'] ;
$con = mysql_connect("localhost","USERNAME","PASSWORD");
if (!$con)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

mysql_select_db("DBNAME", $con);

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM '.$division.' ORDER BY Pts DESC , Won DESC , Team");

echo "<h2>".$division." Division League Table</h2>
<br />
<table style='padding:5px;border: 1px solid #000;border-collapse:collapse;'>
<tr>
<th style='background-color:#0a0;color:#fff;width:150px;border: 1px solid #006001;'>Team</th>
<th style='background-color:#0a0;color:#fff;width:60px;border: 1px solid #006001;'>Pld</th>
<th style='background-color:#0a0;color:#fff;width:60px;border: 1px solid #006001;'>Won</th>
<th style='background-color:#0a0;color:#fff;width:60px;border: 1px solid #006001;'>Lost</th>
<th style='background-color:#0a0;color:#fff;width:60px;border: 1px solid #006001;'>Pts</th>
<th style='background-color:#0a0;color:#fff;width:100px;border: 1px solid #006001;'>Pts Deducted</th>
</tr>";
      
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
  {
   echo "<tr>";
   echo "<td style='text-align:center;border: 1px solid #006001;'>" . $row['Team'] . "</td>";
   echo "<td style='text-align:center;border: 1px solid #006001;'>" . $row['Pld'] . "</td>";
   echo "<td style='text-align:center;border: 1px solid #006001;'>" . $row['Won'] . "</td>";
   echo "<td style='text-align:center;border: 1px solid #006001;'>" . $row['Lost'] . "</td>";
   echo "<td style='text-align:center;border: 1px solid #006001;'>" . $row['Pts'] . "</td>";
   echo "<td style='text-align:center;border: 1px solid #006001;'>" . $row['Pts_Deducted'] . "%</td>";
  echo "</tr>";
  }
echo "</table>";
echo "<p><form action='snookertables.php'><input type=submit value='Click here to lookup another team' /></form></p>\n";

mysql_close($con);
?>

</body>

</html>


If you can help, I'd appreciate it. Would be willing to part with 100 Frih$ if someone can get this working for me.
blueray
Code:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM '.$division.' ORDER BY Pts DESC , Won DESC , Team");


try changed to

Code:
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $division ORDER BY Pts DESC , Won DESC , Team");


Wish this help !!
