Re: UPDATE - Changing Password

Hi.

I have changed the code as suggested, but still no luck, and a new error.
The error is:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pg_affected_rows() in
/home/webpages/yamkedoo/Tests/chpw1.php on line 55

I used the following code:

if(!$database)
         {
            echo "Connection Failed<BR>";
        exit;
         }

    else
    {
        $gdidno = addslashes(trim($formgpid));
        $newpw = addslashes(trim($formnewpw));
        $newpw1 = addslashes(trim($formnewpw1));

        $query = "UPDATE gpinfo SET password='$newpw' WHERE gpid='$gpidno'";
        $result = pg_exec($database, $query);

        if(!$result)
        {
            print "There was a problem accessing the database";
            exit;
        }
        else if(pg_affected_rows($result)!=1)
        {
            print "Update Failed\n";
            exit;
        }
        else if($result)
        {

            print "Update Successful\n<BR>";

        }
    }


I tried removing this section of the code:  else
if(pg_affected_rows($result)!=1)
                                  {
                       print "Update Failed\n";
                       exit;
                                   }

as this is where the error is, then got "Update Successful", but the
password had not been updated.

Any ideas?
