hey
so I have fixed whatever problem I had and have the script running fine now =]
I feel bad for wasting the time of those who read this but I promise it was a last resort and I had no idea why it wasnt working and I dont now know why it suddenly worked, I just re did EXACTLY what Id done the first time =/
who knows but at least its working! good as that is though it raises my next task (im no php'er im learning as I go via tutorials and kind peoples help).
So let me tell you what i want to do next and you can tell me how feasable it is, if you wouldnt mind..
OK so i have it set up that someone can sign up, and log in and see their member profile where they can chage their password etc thanks to the tutorial here on BR.com
now, through various other resources online I am able to make a form, and have it so that when you enter information onto the form what you enter is stored in the database in the relevant table and fields. I also know how to make a search form that will look up whatever you type and if its in the databse, show it on screen.
This is all good and well but what i DONT know how to do (and thats hopefully where you guys come in) is how to make it so that when you sign up and then log in, the data you enter on the form belongs to that account. and so that only the person logged into that account can edit what they enterered. (i have the edit form but at the moment it allows anyone to edit anyone elses information).
So basically i want it so that someone signs up, enters some info on a form, making a profile, then whenever they like they can log in and edit what they wrote using the same form.
Like i said i have this set up atm the enter and edit form, but anyone can use it i need to link it with the members ID or whatever.
anyone think that sounds incredibly easy? or really difficult? I literally have no idea how hard it would be to do so before i go searching the net trying to do it figured id see how 'do-able' it is
loooong post. sorry! hope someone replies though =]
thanks for reading and if you need any more info just let me know, can even show you some forms online to illustrate what i mean if need be
