I'm hoping I can move on to my next question. No answer yet from my =
Hosting Co @ passing session values without getting warning messages -- =
IE, their header + <? session_start() ?> -- on the same line does not =
send values; while their header on firstline and <? session_start() ?> =
on the next does send values but sends warnings.
Since I can @ away the warning messages and get values, I'm trying to =
proceed. =20
My question: I have a list on my second page of people names and =
general information from my mySQL database. I would like to link to a =
detail php page and pass the ID value for that individual. How do I set =
the $searchID when they select a name?
I tried
echo '<form action=3D"../../cgi-bin/pandetail.php" method=3D"post">';
$searchID =3D mysql_result($result,$i,"p.id"); // $i =
is the row number
echo ','.$searchID.' ';
echo '<input type=3D"submit" value=3D"go">';
echo '</form>';
and $searchID came to the pandetailphp as the last value on the =
original form. I expected that. My book says the last value will be =
used. =20
But, how do I send/propagate the value for the row chosen?
