Hello all,
I’m fairly new to php, but what I have is a list that I have shown below:
<?php
echo "<table border='1'>
<tr bgcolor ='#FFFACD'>
<th>ID</th>
<th>Date Of Birth</th>
<th>Gender</th>
<th>Title</th>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th>Address Line 1</th>
<th>Address Line 2</th>
<th>City</th>
<th>Postcode</th>
<th>Contact No</th>
<th>Email</th>
<th>Additional Info</th>
<th>Action</th>
</tr>";
$tbl_name="project_data"; //your table name
// How many adjacent pages should be shown on each side?
$adjacents = 1;
/*
First get total number of rows in data table.
If you have a WHERE clause in your query, make sure you mirror it here.
*/
$query = "SELECT COUNT(*) as num FROM $tbl_name";
$total_pages = mysql_fetch_array(mysql_query($query));
$total_pages = $total_pages[num];
/* Setup vars for query. */
$targetpage = "pv.php"; //your file name (the name of this file)
$limit = 5; //how many items to show per page
$page = $_GET['page'];
if($page)
$start = ($page - 1) * $limit; //first item to display on this page
else
$start = 0; //if no page var is given, set start to 0
/* Get data.
order b
group
parent
level
*/
$sql = "SELECT * FROM project_data LIMIT $start, $limit";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
/* Setup page vars for display. */
if ($page == 0) $page = 1; //if no page var is given, default to 1.
$prev = $page - 1; //previous page is page - 1
$next = $page + 1; //next page is page + 1
$lastpage = ceil($total_pages/$limit); //lastpage is = total pages / items per page, rounded up.
$lpm1 = $lastpage - 1; //last page minus 1
/*
Now we apply our rules and draw the pagination object.
We're actually saving the code to a variable in case we want to draw it more than once.

$pagination = "";
if($lastpage > 1)

$pagination .= "<div class=\"pagination\">";

}
mysql_close($con);
?>The list includes links to a html form, one for inserting a new record, one for editing the record, and one for inserting a comment to the record. What I am stuck on is the comment part. I’ve managed to bring up a blank form, with the current record showing at the top, just like any forum page, but when i click submit, it inserts into the MySQL database as a completely new record. What I want it to do is show up, on the list as a child of the original record, a bit like this:
ID Date Of Birth Gender Title First Name Last Name Address Action
27 1978-11-11 Male Mr jgh ghjghjghj 2 mghjghj Comment
31 999-12-13 Female Miss qewrsdcvx xcveatadfasdf 98 Biushdfs Drive Comment
Anyone have any help on this?
