Field value not displaying

Field value not displaying

This one is driving me mad, as it seems such a basic thing.

I have basically slightly modified a database table to include a couple of extra fields. The database supports a few different sites, two of which are basically identical.

But for some reason the new fields don't seem to want to echo out on one of them.

If you look here:

http://lodges.goodsafariguide.com/africa/africanhorsebacksafaris/

Down at the bottom there is a section 'Safari Awards History'.

The text 'Best Mobile Safari Operator in Africa' used to be a single field 'Category' in a table, 'nominations'. I have now split the countries / continents out, so the 'Category' text is:

Best Mobile Safari Operator

And the country / continent text is in a new field, 'Nom_Country'.

So it all works correctly in that link.

But if you look at this one:

http://www.goodsafariguide.com/lodges/africanhorsebacksafaris/

The 'Nom_Country' field does not display.

Its literally the same page, and I have even resaved it and uploaded it, but still isn't showing.

I have attached copies below of the two files. This one seems a real head scratcher as there doesn't seem much scope for things to go wrong.

I also double checked they were both looking up the same database, which I know they are.

Any ideas? Thank you!

Hi Jason - I think I've realised what it was - there's a URL rewrite which threw me, so I had added the new field to ../lodges/index.php when it should have been to ../lodges.php.

yeah the recordset on the /lodges.php page did not include the Nom_Country column in the select statement.

I added it to the select statement to fix the problem.


$query_rsNominations = sprintf("SELECT NominationID, Category, Year, Finalist, Winner, LodgeID, Nom_Country FROM nominations WHERE LodgeID=%s AND (Year='2014' OR Year='2013') ORDER BY Year DESC, CATEGORY ASC", GetSQLValueString($ParamLodgeID_rsNominations, "int"));
