Hi there,

I am currently learning to use PHP using an Apress book PHP Web Development with Dreamweaver MX 2004. I am going ok so far however I have just hit a problem. On a page (index.php) I am displaying all records from a table (artists) and there is a link called "view" next to each artist which passes on the artist_id URL parameter to a new page (artist.php) and displays the artist name on this seperate page. There is a problem though, although when i test the record set in artist.php; it works fine.... however when i actually run the page on the server it just comes up as a blank page. This is the code for the artist.php page : echo $row_rstArtist['artist name']; and this is the link from the original index page to the artist page : artist.php?<?php echo $row_rstArtists['artist pk']; ?>=
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is bugging me !!

Couple of questions - did you not add the underscore to 'artist_pk' as they did in the book, or did you just forget it when typing the code here? Just figure I'd ask in case that simple little "_" is the problem - LOL

My next question, when you created the recordset for the artist page did you make sure to set the URL Parameter (page 178 in your book) ?

My other question is, have you made sure that PHP is running on your server? I'm not sure what you meant by testing the recordset in artist.php because that is shown on index.php (page 179). Is that working correctly on your server? If so, did you remember to call the artist_name on the artist.php page? If you don't have it asking for that particular information anywhere on the page then it won't know where to put the information it is pulling from the database and the page won't have the info on it.

hi... try to pass variable to URL? for example do this...

$value = rs['id'];

code a link here for: index.php?variable=$value
