    <p>I have created a support form for some clients, they submit information to it and I see it in a panel I have created. In this panel I want to have the ability to check a box next to a record and hit an update button and it will update that record with a time stamp showing I have completed the work and what time. Here is the sample code </p> <pre><code> echo "&lt;table border='1'&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th&gt;ICL&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;PAGE ID&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;SUBMISSION NAME&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;UPTDATES/BUGS&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;MISSING INFO&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;TIME OF SUBMISSION&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;COMPLETED&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;TIME COMPLETED&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt;"; echo "&lt;form name='completed' action='insert4panel.php' method='post'&gt;"; while($row = mysql_fetch_array($results)) { echo "&lt;tr&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['ICL'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['officename'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['submitname'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['feedback'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['missinginfo'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['TimeStamp'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;&lt;input type='checkbox' name='complete'&gt;&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;td&gt;" . $row['completionstamp'] . "&lt;/td&gt;"; echo "&lt;/tr&gt;"; } echo "&lt;input type='submit' value='Update'&gt;"; echo "&lt;/form&gt;"; echo "&lt;/table&gt;"; </code></pre> <p>What happens when I hit submit I send it to this code </p> <pre><code>$timeissued=$_POST["complete"]; $date = date("m-d-y H:i:s"); mysql_query("INSERT INTO SITES (completed, completetime ) VALUES ('$timeissued' ,'$date')"); </code></pre> <p>I know that I'm not telling it which record I want to add the timestamp or the check box to, so it isn't going to do it, however it creates a new record with a timestamp doesn't save the check box and leaves the rest of the fields blank. I'm sure the answer is simple</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.
