Why don't you try populating the fields the user intends to modify with the information you already have? Alex T On 6/17/06, Grae Wolfe - PHP <php@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Good day! I have been working on this little "free" project for a while, and now I have hit another major hiccup. Is there a simple way to only update fields that have something in them? The problem that I am having is that if someone fills out information and submits it, it saves to the DB just fine. However, if they come back later and just put in, for example, a new phone number, it replaces all of the other information with blanks. Here is my current $sql query: $sql = "UPDATE $table SET first_name='$first_name', last_name='$last_name', hs_last_name='$hs_last_name', guest_name='$guest_name', street_address1='$street_address1', street_address2='$street_address2', city='$city', state='$state', zip='$zip', phone1='$phone1', phone2='$phone2', email_address='$email_address', farmers_barn='$farmers_barn', wrhs_tour='$wrhs_tour', crystal_rose='$crystal_rose', registration_comments='$registration_comments', date_registered='$today' WHERE first_name='$first_name' AND last_name='$last_name'"; -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
