Hello, I writing a script that allows user to update a soccer league table with web form. I made a script that prints the old values to text fields in the form. It's done with a loop so that each text field name is numbered +1 higher than previous. My problem is how to put the changed data back to the DB with a different loop since the variable names chance for every team. Here's the a sample of the update part( only one column to update). This script gets 14 game and team values from form like this; $new_games1,$new_games2,$new_games3,$new_games4 etc (and same for the $team). $sql="SELECT name FROM x_series WHERE team_type = 'series'"; $result=mysql_query($sql); $rounds = mysql_num_rows($result); $count = 1; while ($rounds >= $count) { $sql = "UPDATE x_series SET games = '$new_games1' WHERE name = '$team1'"; mysql_query($sql); $count++; } So how can get the game and team variables to change (+1) each time the sql query is fired? Or can I? Is the alternative to write 14 different sql queries? Sounds stupid. Hope someone gets my idea and can help. I've been banging my head against the wall with this and I'm running out of fresh ideas. I really wouldn't want to write those separate sql queries for each update if its possible to avoid that.
