I like to use a js alert box to notify the users
/*************************************************************************
alert box popup confimation message function
*************************************************************************/
function confirm($msg)
{
echo "<script langauge=\"javascript\">alert(\"".$msg."\");</script>";
}//end functionThen in the code I create the message as needed. In your case, you can validate the query worked and then do :
$msg = "Tape deleted"; //simple to even add the tape number in as well confirm($msg);

Hello everyone,
My PHP/mysql pages are working perfectly, the problem is users don't know if what they are doing is working.
I have a system that adds and deletes tape id's from mysql via a PHP front end.
I would like to pass the same success/failure messages that I would get if I performed the add/delete directly within mysql.
For example, If I delete a tape from the db within mysql, after I hit enter I get the following message:
mysql> delete from tape_tracking_test where media_id like 'TR44'; Query OK, 1 row affected (0.01 sec)
I would like to display this message to the browser:
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.01 sec)
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks, Mike
