OK, this time i have kind of a problem that i cant seem to find explained anywhere.
Basically, i have a login section on my site, now i want people to be able to view and edit there account details from my MySQL server (database: TDN, table : Login)
now i know how to show results from a MySQL table very easily just not sure how to show a recent from a specific logged in user, so they only see there account details, i have a cookie set there username so i was wondering if tehre was a way of checking the username from the cookie (which will always be a valid username beause it only gets set after someone has suceeded in logging in) and then showing the records relevant to that cookie
for eg
(this is not PHP coding)
cookie = username of person logged in
PHP checks cookie for the username and passes it to MySQL
MySQL shows the relevant records for that username
i understand its a filtering option but cant seem to figure out what they should be
have read the PHP manual, says nothing about any of this and to be honest the manual is so annoying in my opinion, for anyone new to PHP it would of been alot more productive to give us some nice (and pretty complex) tutorials and examples explaining what the code is doing not the 2 tutorials you get that are useless, anyone got that off my chest,
By the way, i am quite knowledgable about MySQL. so i should understand what you are saying, if you could just give me an idea of what the code would look like because at the moment i need to really start doing things myself with PHP.
Thanks In Advance
