Search Terminology

Post by aussiebloke »

Hi all,

Not looking for answers but would not knock them back.

What I am looking for is the terminology to search the web for my answers. Fairly new to php but getting there.

I can setup a query and return the results from the mysql database to a table on my php page. what I was looking for is how to format a column in that table that would link then to more detailed information.

e.g. the column might be invoice numbers. clicking on the invoice number would then bring up a detailed invoice.

I have been using google to search for answers but getting no where.

I think it is the terminology I am using to search for it.

Any help would be appreciated and if it is not possible I am sorry for wasting everyones time.

Regards,
rnoack

get the info you need unformatted from the database,
use the php echo command inside your php file to create links/etc.
