I am working on a Tracking System for a Computer Shop where I work.
Currently, there is a page which adds the entries to MySQL through a PHP Front End. There is also a search page which finds results based on user input. The search works flawlessly.
My goal is this:
To have an Edit button below an entry after it is found so that I can click the button and have all of the fields appear as editable.
The way I am trying to do it, I have a button that calls a whole new page (edit.php) which tries to load up the data from the search results. However, it does not get the user input from the search page. I have tried inputting an arbitrary value and that works. I need it to find and parse based on the user input two pages before.
Is there an easy way to make the variables carry over from two pages previous? Can I restate the variable on each page and have it appear?
I have no issues reading my SQL information. It reads that correctly. I just cannot get the variable to hold so that it knows which record to bring up.
Sorry if this is vague and I really appreciate your help.
