PHP MySQL and Forms

[enis]

Hi.

I want to allow users to update their own details on our MySQL database via
a php form.

We would like this form to display their current details in a form text box so as
not to over write the fields not being changed.

The problem I have is getting the text box to display the current
information.

Can anyone please help?

Thanks in advance,

Enis

For a text box you can use the Value attribute for Input, with $var being the current entry in your mySQL table.

<input type="text" value="<? $var; ?>">

Alternatively, you could write a simple script that only updates columns that have any content in the corresponding php variable.

Hope this helps.
