multiple update missing 2 fields

Hi Ray

I have quite a complicated page (attached). There are 3 optional select menus on the form - the dropdowns all work.

However, only the data entered into the first (sel1) is updated in the database - the other two are ignored.

The update code at the top of the page is identical, bar the field names:

$UpdateQuery->bindColumn("fr_sel1", "s", "".((isset($_POST["sel1"."_".$MultipleUpdateCount]))?$_POST["sel1"."_".$MultipleUpdateCount]:"") ."", "WA_NULL");
$UpdateQuery->bindColumn("fr_sel2", "s", "".((isset($_POST["sel2"."_".$MultipleUpdateCount]))?$_POST["sel2"."_".$MultipleUpdateCount]:"") ."", "WA_NULL");
$UpdateQuery->bindColumn("fr_sel3", "s", "".((isset($_POST["sel3"."_".$MultipleUpdateCount]))?$_POST["sel3"."_".$MultipleUpdateCount]:"") ."", "WA_NULL");


and ditto for the form fields themselves.

Anything obvious?

Many thanks
Chris

I've looked at the source code of the page, and the <?php echo($wa_startindex); ?> value is missing from sel2 and sel3 field names and id (which should be sel2_<?php echo($wa_startindex); ?> and sel3_<?php echo($wa_startindex); ?>)

Cheers

Hi Ray

I appear to have solved it - but would like confirmation, if you could.

Thinking that it's the wa_startindex that's causing the problem, I have renamed the second repeat region of select menu choices to wa_startindex2 and the third instance to wa_startindex3

Fingers crossed!

Cheers

That doesn't sound right. The missing values in the names and IDs sounds like it should have fixed it. Renaming other variables shouldn't be necessary.

Hi Ray

The field name (sel1) has the original repeat region, but the select options are renamed e.g. $wa_startindex1 as below. It works!

<select class="browser-default custom-select" name="sel1_<?php echo($wa_startindex); ?>" id="sel1_<?php echo($wa_startindex); ?>">
<option value="" disabled <?php if (!(strcmp("", ($rsForm->getColumnVal("fr_sel1"))))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>>Choose option</option>
<?php
$wa_startindex1 = 0;
while(!$rsSelects->atEnd()) {
$wa_startindex1 = $rsSelects->Index;
?>
<?php /*START*/ if ($rsSelects->getColumnVal("fs_sel_no")=="1"){ ?>
<option value="<?php echo($rsSelects->getColumnVal("fs_id")); ?>"<?php if (!(strcmp($rsSelects->getColumnVal("fs_id"), ($rsForm->getColumnVal("fr_sel1"))))) {echo "selected=\"selected\"";} ?>><?php echo($rsSelects->getColumnVal("fs_sel")); ?></option><?php } /*END*/ ?>
<?php
$rsSelects->moveNext();
}
$rsSelects->moveFirst(); //return RS to first record
unset($wa_startindex1);
unset($wa_repeatcount);
?>
</select>
</td><?php } /*END*/ ?>

Cheers

It should work the same if you don't rename the variable. I don't think that is a necessary step. Maybe though... I guess it depends on how everything is nested.
