Get the last checked checkboxes...
- by Sara
Hi everyone,
I'm not sure how to accomplish this issue which has been confusing me for a few days. I have a form that updates a user record in MySQL when a checkbox is checked. Now, this is how my form does this:
if (isset($_POST['Update'])) {
$paymentr = $_POST['paymentr']; //put checkboxes array into variable
$paymentr2 = implode(', ', $paymentr); //implode array for mysql
$query = "UPDATE transactions SET paymentreceived=NULL";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$query = "UPDATE transactions SET paymentdate='0000-00-00'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$query = "UPDATE transactions SET paymentreceived='Yes' WHERE id IN ($paymentr2)";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$query = "UPDATE transactions SET paymentdate=NOW() WHERE id IN ($paymentr2)";
$result = mysql_query($query);
foreach ($paymentr as $v) { //should collect last updated records and put them into variable for emailing.
$query = "SELECT id, refid, affid FROM transactions WHERE id = '$v'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die("Query Failed: ".mysql_errno()." - ".mysql_error()."<BR>\n$query<BR>\n");
$trans = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC);
$transactions .= '<br>User ID:'.$trans['id'].' -- '.$trans['refid'].' -- '.$trans['affid'].'<br>';
}
}
Unfortunately, it then updates ALL the user records with the latest date which is not what I want it to do. The alternative I thought of was, via Javascript, giving the checkbox a value that would be dynamically updated when the user selected it. Then, only THOSE checkboxes would be put into the array. Is this possible? Is there a better solution? I'm not even sure I could wrap my brain around how to do that WITH Javascript. Does the answer perhaps lie in how my mysql code is written?
Thanks - I sincerely appreciate it!!!
