I am developing my first simple website using PHP. Now, I am working in the admin page and I want to let him adding, deleting users and editing the personal information of the existed users. I did the adding and deleting. Now, I want to develop editing users. First of all, I want him to choose the user from drop list, then fetch the user information automatically after choosing him from the drop list, and after that editing his information. So how can I do that?
My code:
<?php
ob_start();
$host="localhost"; // Host name
$username="root"; // Mysql username
$password="13524"; // Mysql password
$db_name="sharingi_db"; // Database name
// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<script language="javascript">
function reload(form){
var val=form.username.options[form.username.options.selectedIndex].value;
self.location='editUser2.php?username=' + val ;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content_main" class="admin_student_height">
<!-- Here starts the first form -->
<form method="get">
<h3>Choose A User</h3> <br />
select name="username" onchange="reload(this.form)">
<option>
<?php
if(isset($_GET['username']))
echo "{$_GET['username']}";
else echo "Select one";
?>
</option>
<?php
if(isset($_GET['username'])){
$exceptcc = $_GET['username'];
$sql = "SELECT username FROM user WHERE user.username NOT IN
('$exceptcc')";
}
else
$sql = "SELECT username FROM user";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo "<option value={$row['username']}>{$row['username']}</option>";
}
?>
</select><br /><br />
<h3>User Information</h3> <br />
<?php
$thecc = $_GET['username'];
$sql = "SELECT Firstname FROM user WHERE Username=$thecc";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo "{$row['Firstname']}>{$row['Firstname']}}";
}
?>
<br /><br />
</form> <br />
</div>
</div>
</body>
An administrator is someone who can make changes on a computer that will affect other users of the computer. Administrators can change security settings, install software and hardware, access all files on the computer, and make changes to other user accounts.
Watch: Change a user's name or email addressIn the Microsoft 365 admin center, select Users > Active users. Select the user from the list of active users. Select Manage contact information. Change the display name, and select Save changes.
The Admin page in Google Analytics gives you access to the Analytics administrative features. At the bottom left of the page, hover over the gear icon and click Admin to open the page.
I've been working on making a web-based ticketing system and ran into this same situation. I solved the problem like this:
If you want me to post up an example of what I did I can do that.
You are only echo'ing the user's information.
Instead, you need to put the information into a form, which will allow for editing.
<?php
if ($_POST['submit']) {
$username = $_POST['username'];
//if you want to update
mysql_query("UPDATE users SET username = '$username', password = '$password'");
//if you want to delete
mysql_query("DELETE FROM users WHERE username = '$username'");
}
?>
<?
//show all users
$user_query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users");
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($user_query)) {
echo $row['username'] . ' ' . $row['first_name'] . ' ' . $row['last_name'];
//and so on.. depending on your table fields
}
?>
<form method="POST">
Username: <input name="name" value="<?echo $row['username'?>"/>
<input type="submit" name="submit"/>
</form>
