N00b question again :)

[border20]

I have a form that displays the information in a DB according to the ID number put in a text field...

but how do I check in the DB to see is there's a reccord with that ID ?

ok,
use something like this:

Code: Select all

$sql = "SELECT user_id, username FROM ".$table." where user_id=".$HTTP_POST_VARS["id"];

where $HTTP_POST_VARS["id"] comes form the form sent via POST method.
