rs problem

Hey Ray

Could you give me a hand with a recordset please?

On the attached product_update.php page the Categories rs is adding the parent category name in front of the sub category name (line 733) and on the product_results.php page (also attached) I am trying to do the same on line 351 but cannot get the WADAproducts rs to allow the parentcategory name as well as the sub category.

cheers

Jamie

If you update your recordset on line 151 to:

SELECT products.*, productcategories.*, productmanufacturers.*, productcategories_2.CategoryName AS parentcategoryname FROM  FROM products LEFT JOIN productcategories ON products.ProductCategoryID = productcategories.CategoryID LEFT OUTER JOIN productcategories AS productcategories_2 ON productcategories_2.CategoryID = productcategories.CategoryParentID LEFT JOIN productmanufacturers ON products.ProductManufacturerID = productmanufacturers.ManufacturerID

Then you should be able to refer to the parentcategoryname column when you need to below.

cheers Ray but unfortunately that errors with the following:

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'productcategories LEFT OUTER JOIN productcategories AS productcategories_2 ON pr' at line 1

SELECT products.*, productcategories.*, productmanufacturers.*, productcategories_2.CategoryName AS parentcategoryname FROM products LEFT JOIN productcategories ON products.ProductCategoryID = productcategories.CategoryID productcategories LEFT OUTER JOIN productcategories AS productcategories_2 ON productcategories_2.CategoryID = productcategories.CategoryParentID LEFT JOIN productmanufacturers ON products.ProductManufacturerID = productmanufacturers.ManufacturerID

Sorry I had a typo... I think it should have been:

SELECT products.*, productcategories.*, productmanufacturers.*, productcategories_2.CategoryName AS parentcategoryname FROM  FROM products LEFT JOIN productcategories ON products.ProductCategoryID = productcategories.CategoryID LEFT OUTER JOIN productcategories AS productcategories_2 ON productcategories_2.CategoryID = productcategories.CategoryParentID LEFT JOIN productmanufacturers ON products.ProductManufacturerID = productmanufacturers.ManufacturerID

cheers Ray. Now its not erroring but parentcategoryname is not showing in the bindings at all (and have refreshed etc)....

Have you tried typing it in manually after dragging a different column?

It looks like it is there. I'm not sure why it wouldn't show in the bindings.
