php - trying to count entries in a database -
i'm trying count entries in database based on 2 basic criteria. returning blank result, though there results found. have idea doing wrong here? have tried many different ways , return no result. (if enter query directly in phpmyadmin returns result.)
$sql = "select count(*) total_count orderoption3detail orderdate='$orderdate' , studentid='$studentid'"; $numericalresult = mysql_query($sql, $con); $row = mysql_fetch_object($numericalresult); $totalorders1 = $row->total_count; echo "my orders:" . $totalorders1;
as others stated, make sure sanitize variables before go query.
$sql = "select * orderoption3detail orderdate = '" . $orderdate . "' , studentid = '" . $studentid . "'"; $sql_request_data = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error()); $sql_request_data_count = mysql_num_rows($sql_request_data); echo "number of rows found: " . $sql_request_data_count;
that's need.
