Im making a blog like system using HTML, CSS, PHP and MySQl. The site is made up of three tables.
user (id, username, password, email)
posts (postid, title, post)
comments (postid, id, comment, commentid) postid coming from posts and id from user.
I am trying to display all of the comments and the users username who left them for a certain post.
When i use this query in phpmyadmin: SELECT user.username, comments.comment FROM user INNER JOIN comments on user.id=comments.id where postid=1
It shows what i need.
When i add it into php i get a blank page.
<?php
//echo "1";
session_start();
$connect = mysql_connect('localhost', 'root', 'root') or die("Couldn't connect");
mysql_select_db("com541blog") or die("Couldn't connect to database");
//echo "2";
//$postid = $_GET['type'];
$_SESSION['postid'] = $postid;
//echo "3";
$query_comments = mysql_query("SELECT user.username as username, comments.comment as comment FROM user INNER JOIN comments on user.id=comments.id WHERE postid='1'");
$info = mysql_fetch_array($query_comments);
$username = $info['username'];
$comment = $info['comment'];
echo $username;
echo $comment;
?>
Thanks in advance for the help :)
