Alright, this has been giving me stress for a very long time, Im making a text-adventure game site and I have already implemented a nice login/register for the site. What im trying to do is make it so when a user completes a “chapter” in the game, they can hit a complete button that will change the chapter INT value to the number of the chapter. Here is what I have so far:
My Members Only PHP page (using for testing purposes):
[code]<?php session_start(); ?>
Advanced Registration & Login TutorialMembers Area
<?php session_start(); if(isset($_SESSION['username'])) { ?>
Welcome to members area<br />You are logged in as: <?php echo $_SESSION['username']; ?>
<br /><a href="logout.php">Logout</a>
<?php } else { ?>
Please login to see this page
<?php } ?>
This is the php file that i was attempting to connect to in the function:
[php]$con = mysql_connect(log in info);
if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ’ . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db(“db_name”, $con);
$sql=“UPDATE users SET chapter = 1 WHERE username=’”.$_SESSION[‘username’]."’";
mysql_query($sql);[/php]
Im not getting any errors, but when the button is clicked to change the value, nothing happens in the database… what am I doing wrong?!
