Can someone run over these functions I have written to explain if my
logic is correct.
I'm still new to PHP and am trying to get my head round it!
This first function is to collect a list of order numbers from my
database where checked = no.
Am I correct in assuming that the variable $orderid will be an array of
results returned? How can I check this?
function get_live_orders()
{
$conn = db_connect();
$query = "select orderid from email where checked='no'";
$result = @mysql_query($query);
if(mysql_numrows($result)>0)
$orderid = @mysql_fetch_array($result);
return $orderid;
}
This second function is to take these order numbers and compare them to
order numbers in a second table and return the result of that. So if
order number 100001 is in the first array from the above function and
there is a number 100001 in the second query result I want to take all
the data in that row and return it.
function get_order_details()
{
$orderid = get_live_orders();
$conn = db_connect();
$query = "select * from orders where orderid='$orderid'";
$result = @mysql_query($query);
if (!$result)
return false;
$result = mysql_result($result, 0, "orderid");
return $result;
}
I haven't actually run this yet but I'd like someone to explain to me
what these functions will do so I am not just copy pasting code and
hoping to get it right eventually! Probably I have written this wrong
anyway and would like help before I actually attempt to do what I am
after.
I'll look back on this tomorrow so any help will be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
