I have a small line of code that will get the sum of a column
<?php
class ManageServices{
function getTotalSumByDateRange()
{
$query = $this->link->query("SELECT SUM(amount) as sum_of_date_range FROM services ");
$rowcount = $query->rowCount();
$result = $query->fetchAll();
return $result;
}
}
?>
//search.php
<?php
include_once('../../classes/class.ManageServices.php');
$init = new ManageServices();
$sum_of_date_range = $init->getTotalSumByDateRange();
?>
//search1
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
include_once('../../classes/class.ManageServices.php');
$init = new ManageServices();
$date_from =$_POST['to_date'];
$date_to =$_POST['from_date'];
if(empty($_POST['to_date']) && empty($_POST['from_date']))
{
$error = "No search query";
}
elseif(empty($_POST['to_date']) && !empty($_POST['from_date']))
{
$error ="Please specify your start date search";
}
elseif(!empty($_POST['to_date']) && empty($_POST['from_date']))
{
$error ="Please specify your end date search";
}
else
{
$total_by_date_range = 0;
$total_by_date_range = $init->getSumByDateRange($date_from, $date_to);
}
}
?>
//html
<?php
include_once('../../libs/search/search_sales_by_date.php');
include_once('../../libs/search1/total_sales.php');
?>

and in my table i have columns 'id','amount',date_of_service'.The query above will calculate all the 'amount' values and display in html, however, i want to add another query that will only get the sum of 'amount' column base on a date range input from html form.Any ideas on this? Update..I think I'm almost there,after I updated search1.php,search.php,and html my problem now is I want to show the $total_by_date_range in same form.But when I submit the form, it shows no error but will not show the $total_by_date_range.anyway,the $sum_of_date range shows result in the same page
