I have two tables, SpeciesHuntBoats contains details of Boats, the Make, Skipper etc. and SpeciesHunt which is generated by the skipper submitting a catch report form with details of their fishing catches. showboats.php displays 5 columns, Year, Boat Name, Make, Skipper, Number Of Species Caught.
For the final column I want a display of the number of rows in SpeciesHunt where that BoatName appears (to give a leaderboard of who has entered the most catches). This is as far as I've been able to get unfortunately, any help much appreciated!
<body>
<?php
$servername = "xxx";
$username = "xxx";
$password = "xxx";
$dbname = "xxx";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
// Count Rows
$result = mysqli_query($conn, "SELECT * FROM SpeciesHunt");
$num_rows = mysqli_num_rows($result);
// Check row count of entire table works
echo "$num_rows Rows
";
$sql = "SELECT Year, BoatName, BoatMake, Skipper FROM SpeciesHuntBoats";
$result = $conn->query($sql);
if ($result->num_rows > 0) {
echo "<table><tr><th>Hunt Year</th><th>Boat Name</th><th>Boat Make</th><th>Skipper</th><th>Number Of Species</th></tr>";
// output data of each row
while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
echo "<tr><td>" . $row["Year"]. "</td><td>" . $row["BoatName"]. "</td><td>" . $row["BoatMake"]. "</td><td>" . $row["Skipper"]. "</td><td>
$num_rows</td></tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
} else {
echo "0 results";
}
$conn->close();
?>
