Array

[aj3220]

Ok well here i go again. In my quest to expand my knowledge in arrays (and write this script) i've come accross a question.

First off. Let me explain what is going on. I'm write a photo album type system for my family. Each user can upload 5 pictures. So when they login to their page. I have a script which pulls the 5 image names from an array. And creates a link to them.

That is what that script does. PHP:

<?php 
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users where user='$name'"; 
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error()); 

while($arr = mysql_fetch_array($result)) 
{ 
    $pics[] = $arr["add_picts"]; 
} 
foreach($pics as $picid) 
{ 
    $array = explode(',', $picid); 

foreach ($array as $pic) 
{ 
print $pic[0]; 
echo "</p>"; 
print $pic[1]; 
echo "</p>"; 
print $pic[2]; 


    $table .= "<tr><td><a 
href=http://l.com/images/$pic>$pic</p></tr></td>"; 
        $table_one .= "<td><p align=center><a href=http://c.com/edit_pics.php?picid=$array><img 
src=http://c.com/images/$pic height=80 width=80 border=0><br>$pic</a></td><td>&nbsp</td>"; 
    } 
} 
?> 

 

This code works great. It even links correctly. However, i face the problem of when the person clicks on the link it is suppose to take you to the upload script page. My problem is i dont' know how to tell the upload script page which $pics[] var in the array to update.

Any suggestions on how to go about this?

A few things, one you can't just pass an entire array through the URL without serialize()ing it, or passing a var for each element of the array.

Why don't you pass a number or something to the edit_pics.php page which indicates which image to edit?

It's not entirely clear what you're trying to do either, you're print()ing pic[0], pic[1], pic[2], even though it appears as if $pic is a string, not an array...

Later you treat it as a string when you use it as $pic in the <img src=""> tag.

Also, double quote all HTML attributes, ie: <img src="image.png" /> and NOT <img src=image.png />

And you missed a closing </p> tag too.
