  1. POHow can I get the row of a certain link in a table with data from a mysql database?
    primarykey
    data
    text
    <p>Here is my code:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt; &lt;?php DEFINE('DATABASE_USER', 'sfasdfasd'); DEFINE('DATABASE_PASSWORD', 'asdfasdfasdf'); DEFINE('DATABASE_HOST', 'sdfasdfasd'); DEFINE('DATABASE_NAME', 'dsafsdfasd'); $connect = mysql_connect(DATABASE_HOST, DATABASE_USER, DATABASE_PASSWORD, DATABASE_NAME) or die ("Hey loser, check your server connection."); mysql_select_db("minedb"); $query = "SELECT * FROM ideastable ORDER BY datee DESC"; $quey1="select * from ideastable"; $result=mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); ?&gt; &lt;table border=1 style="background-color:#000000;" &gt; &lt;caption&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Ideas List&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/caption&gt; &lt;tr&gt; &lt;th&gt;IDEAS&lt;/th&gt; &lt;th&gt;Thumbs Ups&lt;/th&gt; &lt;/tr&gt; &lt;?php while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;"; echo $row['idea']; echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;td&gt;"; echo $row['thumbsup']; $i = $row['id']; echo $i; echo '&lt;a href="#" onClick="doSomething()"&gt;Thumbs Up!&lt;/a&gt;'; echo "&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;"; } echo "&lt;/table&gt;"; ?&gt; &lt;SCRIPT type="text/javascript" src="jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/SCRIPT&gt; &lt;SCRIPT type="text/javascript"&gt; function doSomething() { var myVar = "&lt;?php echo $i; ?&gt;"; alert(myVar); $.load('uts.php?i=myVar'); return false; } &lt;/SCRIPT&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>My question is how would I be able to make it so that when I click the Thumbs Up it recognizes the row the link was in? I am making a site where you can rate some of the objects in a database and that is the start up of it.</p>
