Hi
I need to fill a variable a value (writers name) with the data coming from 2 different
tables depending on the choice from the previosu page (add a new article or edit an
old one). Is their an easier way to do this as the sql is rather ugly that I am using
later as itis not clean in its choice giving extra records.
if (isset($writer)) //for a new story
$n = get_writer_name($writer);
elseif (isset($story)) // edit old article
$s = get_story_record($story);
later in page...
print query_select("page",
"select p.code, p.description
from pages p, writer_permissions w
where p.code = w.page
and w.writer = '$s[writer]' or w.writer = '$n[writer]'", $s[page]);?>
ANdreww
