Hiii all ,
This is my first post and I wish I would be one of this amazing php family 
I have one year experience in PHP , my company asked me to do the following project :
Registration form for some restaurant which they offer free meal for users who signed up online !
User registers , gets random code which is a voucher code …
From my side , I have created everything database , registration form and I the developing part …
For the admin page , there will be 3 branches from this restaurant where the user will go and shows the managerhis voucher code (number) , the manager will login ( will find search form) , type the voucher number and click on search button … if it exists , the manager in the admin page set the voucher as reedemed . It should also update the database with which admin with the date he has updated the voucher code as reedemed .
My login page is very simple … I used post method where it goes to checklogin.php page then goes to admin1.php ( in case username and password is correct )
here is my check_login.php
[php]<?php require_once(’…/Connections/connection.php’);
session_start();
FileName=“Connection_php_mysql.htm”
Type=“MYSQL”
HTTP=“true”
$username = $_POST[‘username’];
$password = $_POST[‘password’];
$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM admins where username = ‘$username’ AND password = ‘$password’ ");
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($sql);
if ( $num_rows == 1 ){
$_SESSION[‘access’] = true;
header(“location: admin1.php”);
}
else {
echo header("location: login.php");; }
?>[/php]
If the manager enters the system with correct username and password , it takes him to admin1.php page where I have simple search form which displays the info of the voucher code if it exists
[php]
Search:
if (!empty($_REQUEST[‘term’])) {
$term = mysql_real_escape_string($_REQUEST[‘term’]);
$sql = “SELECT * FROM mydata WHERE id2 LIKE '%”.$term."%’";
$r_query = mysql_query($sql);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($r_query);
if ( $num_rows == 1 ){
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($r_query)){
echo 'id: ’ .$row[‘id’];
echo ’
Entry Date: ’ .$row[‘entry_date’];
echo ’
Name: '.$row[‘fname’];
echo ’
Email: '.$row[‘email’];
echo ’
Mobile: '.$row[‘mobile’];
echo ’
Voucher Code: '.$row[‘id2’];
if ( $row[‘reedemed’] == 1) {
echo ’
Reedemed: '. ‘Reedemed’;
}
else {?>
Updatedby: '.$row['updatedby']; } } else {echo '';} } ?>[/php]
my problem is in the following part ( HOW TO GET WHICH ADMIN HE SETS THE CODE AS REEDEMED ) ?
[php]<?php require_once('../Connections/connection.php'); ?>
<?php session_start(); ?> <?php $term2 = $_POST['term2']; $term = $_SESSION['term']; mysql_query("UPDATE mydata SET reedemed='1' WHERE id2 = '$term' "); echo 'Your voucher code has been marked as reedemed. Thank You!'; //updatedby part $sql = "SELECT * FROM mydata WHERE id2 LIKE '%".$term."%'"; $r_query = mysql_query($sql); $row = mysql_fetch_array($r_query); $mydate= $row['entry_date']; $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($r_query); if ( $num_rows == 1) { mysql_query("UPDATE mydata SET updatedby = '$mydate' WHERE id2= {$term} ; "); } ?>[/php]Please I need help ASAP 
?
Thanks
