i try this coding but doesn’t help…no display at all…please help me…thanks in advanced
[php]
$sql = “select expenses from tbl”;
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
while($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{
$expenses = $r[‘expenses’];
$total = $expenses + $total;
}
[/php]
What I’m thinking you need, is the following:
[php]
$total = 0;
$sql = “select expenses from tbl”;
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
while($r = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$expenses = $r[‘expenses’];
$total += $expenses;
}
[/php]
Or perhaps even better:
[php]
$sql = “select SUM(expenses) AS total from tbl”;
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
$r = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$total = $r[‘total’];
[/php]
