Yes but how do I get the venue_id= into the proper place on the update page to update the records in the venue table. Venue_id would normally be UserID from the user table as your update page was created to allow logged in users to update their own records. The venue table however does not have any associated users; none of the records in the venue table are linked to any user. In fact all of the records in the venue table are there through csv import. I cannot manually enter an id number every time I want to update a record, especially since once I hand this over I won't be the one doing it, so I have to automate the procedure somehow.
DataAssist to create a venue_update page for the venue table. Then I created venue query page venue_USAupdate and created a link for the Venue_Name column to the update page. So now when a Venue Name is clicked to takes you to the update page where the address bar does indeed show the id numbwer of the venue to be updated.
http://localhost/songwriters/venue_update.php?id=38
But somehow I need to get the id=38 to magically appear in the record set as the venue to be updated.Instead I get the message appearing above the table:
Notice: Undefined index: venue_id in C:\xampp\htdocs\songwriters\venue_update.php on line 7 and if I enter update information I then get:
Notice: Undefined index: venue_id in C:\xampp\htdocs\songwriters\venue_update.php on line 7
incorrect DOUBLE value:
Notice: Undefined index: venue_id in C:\xampp\htdocs\songwriters\venue_update.php on line 252
Is there a way to dynamically select the venue id and have it insert in the proper places to allow for a record update?
