    <p>that's because your <code>insert</code> query is after your <code>select</code> query, you have to insert the new record before getting the data from <code>mysql</code> your code would be like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;style&gt; .percentbar { background:#CCCCCC; border:1px solid #666666; height:25px; } .percentbar div { background: #28B8C0; height: 25px; border-right:1px solid black } &lt;/style&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;?php include("config.php"); if (isset($_POST['add'])) { $add = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['add']); mysql_query("UPDATE donationgoal SET `total` = `total` + ".$add." "); } $data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM donationgoal"); while ($info = mysql_fetch_array($data)) { $value = $info['total']; } echo $value; // Testing numbers. Replace with your own. $max = 100; $scale = 2.0; // Get Percentage out of 100 if ( !empty($max) ) { $percent = ($value * 100) / $max; } else { $percent = 0; } // Limit to 100 percent (if more than the max is allowed) if ( $percent &gt; 100 ) { $percent = 100; } ?&gt; &lt;form method="post"&gt; &lt;input type="text" name="add" /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;div class="percentbar" style="width:&lt;?php echo round(100 * $scale); ?&gt;px;"&gt; &lt;div style="width:&lt;?php echo round($percent * $scale); ?&gt;px;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; Percentage: &lt;?php echo $percent; ?&gt;% &lt;/body&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>BTW:</strong> Please Please Please stop using mysql and use <code>mysqli</code> instead.</p>

    1. COAhh I see, I got it working buy putting another select query after the update query. Would that be the most efficient way to do that?

    3. COyou don't have to care about efficiency as much as you have to care about security reliability and you can achieve both by using `mysqli` and not including too many queries in your code

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).
