    <p>PHP usually works pretty much straight out of the box, but I cannot get this query to work. I am attempting to update a simple record. My code is as follows.</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php $customername=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['customername']); $contact=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['contact']); $customerorder=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['customerorder']); $orderplaced=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['orderplaced']); $staffmember=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['staffmember']); $daterequired=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['daterequired']); $status=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['status']); $paid=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['paid']); $delivery=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['delivery']); $ordercontent=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['ordercontent']); $orderid=mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['orderid']); mysql_connect("localhost", "xxxx", "xxxxxxx") or die("Connection Failed"); mysql_select_db("xxxxxx")or die("Connection Failed"); $query = "UPDATE ordermanager_orders SET customername='$customername', contact='$contact', ordernumber='$customerorder', placedby='$orderplaced', requiredby='$daterequired', status=$status', staffmember='$staffmember', paid='paid', delivery='$delivery', ordercontent='$ordercontent' WHERE order='$orderid'"; if(mysql_query($query)){ echo "updated";} else{ echo "fail";} ?&gt; </code></pre> <p>The values are being posted or "Getted" from another page. They are definitely coming through as otherwise it comes up with errors. At the moment it simply comes up with 'failed' as per the code.</p> <p>I have tried numerous variants of code found on the internet, to check if my coding was correct, however I still cannot get it to work.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
