Php code issue  en

Author: Errol W.
Visited 1425, Followers 1, Shared 0  

Here is the code I am using.

// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

$sql = "SELECT order_id, label, value FROM cartinvoice_addresses";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
// output data of each row
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo " " . $row["label"]. " " . $row["value"] ;
if( $row["label"] = "address"){ "<br>"}
}
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
$conn->close();
?>

I added this to the original code "if( $row["label"] = "address"){ "<br>"}"  I want the output to skip a line when it finds the word "address" in the table column. When I run the process I get "This Page not working" I suspect the syntax is wrong. Help me. Without that piece of code, there is no problem.

Try this:

if( $row["label"] = "address"){ echo "<br>"; }

Hello Axel,

I am not getting the page not working after using your advice. However I am not getting the line break.

// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

$sql = "SELECT order_id, label, value FROM cartinvoice_addresses";
$result = $conn->query($sql);

if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
// output data of each row
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo " " . $row["label"]. " " . $row["value"] ;
if( $row["label"] = "address"){ echo "<br>"; }

}
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
$conn->close();
?>

Try to modify your script with :

$conn = mysqli_connect("my_server", "user", "password", "dbname");

and to save it in PHP file like test.php

and try tu use your test.php  without WSX5. Directly from your web server like https://myserver.com/test.php

It's better to debug the PHP script outside of WSX5.

When it's run, you can add it to use it...

Hope this helps

Hello Errol,

The comparison operator for equality in PHP is a double equals sign as opposed to a single.

Thus:

if( $row["label"] == "address")

This is why your code is failing the if statement.

Also, you might want to capitalise "address" to match what is in the MySQL database.

if( $row["label"] == "Address")

Kind regards,

Paul
