无法使用php更新mysql数据库

Question

I am trying to update a record on my customer mysql table. However I get the following errors:

Notice: Undefined index: username in E:\\EasyPHP-12.1\\www\\Register1.php on line 313

Notice: Undefined variable: db_password in E:\\EasyPHP-12.1\\www\\Register1.php on line 315 error updating record

I can't see anything wrong with my code. And have been looking at it for a few hours with no luck.

Answer 1

1. The username field in your HTML is in a different form than the submit button, so it's not being sent along with the rest of the fields.

2. You have no $db_password variable; you do have a $db_pass variable. Is that what you meant?

3. For requests that modify data, you should really use POST , not GET requests.

As noted in the comments:

You should use $db_password = $_GET['password'] , and correct the quotes as in peterm and Mehdi's answers.

Answer 2

There are several problems with your code:

You're not getting username parameter with GET method. html markup should be corrected to properly define one form instead of having several.

You don't have $db_password variable defined. It's probably meant to be

$db_password = $_GET['password'];

There is invalid concatenation in $sql3 .Therefore change

$sql3 = "UPDATE `customer` SET `Password`='.$db_password.' WHERE `Username`='.$db_username.";

to

$sql3 = "UPDATE `customer` SET `Password`='$db_password' WHERE `Username`='$db_username'";

Answer 3

your query should be like below :

$sql3 = "UPDATE `customer` SET `Password`='".$db_password."' 
WHERE `Username`='".$db_username."'";
