Staff Induction System - No idea where to go from here!!!

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hi there, I'm pretty new to PHP and Mysql so could really do with being pointed in the right direction with this problem I have.

I am trying to set up a system induct new members of staff onto their training programme.

First I have created a table 'induction_course_dates' of all the course dates and induction_course_titles of all the different courses.

These are the 2 queries I have made on the database


///////////////////////// Make the course title query //////////////////////////////
$q_courses = "SELECT * FROM induction_course_titles";
$result_courses = mysqli_query($dbc, $q_courses);
$row_courses = mysqli_fetch_array($result_courses);


///////////////////////// Make the course date query //////////////////////////////
$q_date = "SELECT * FROM induction_course_dates WHERE DATE(course_date)>='$today' AND course='$courseID' ORDER BY course_date ASC LIMIT 4";
$result_date = mysqli_query($dbc, $q_date);
$row_date = mysqli_fetch_array($result_date);

Obviously in the second query '$courseID' does not have a value so won't actually return anything but I don't know how to loop it through all of the induction_course_titles id's.

For example if it the query read...

///////////////////////// Make the course date query //////////////////////////////
$q_date = "SELECT * FROM induction_course_dates WHERE DATE(course_date)>='$today' AND course='2' ORDER BY course_date ASC LIMIT 4";
$result_date = mysqli_query($dbc, $q_date);
$row_date = mysqli_fetch_array($result_date);

...then this would return the results I'm looking for but there are 25 different courses.


I want the final output to appear as below

The user will select a date from the next four available

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td>Course 1</td>
<td>
<select name="select" id="select">
<option value="date1">Date 1</option>
<option value="date2">Date 2</option>
<option value="date3">Date 3</option>
<option value="date4">Date 4</option>
</select>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Course 2</td>
<td><select name="select2" id="select2">
<option value="date1">Date 1</option>
<option value="date2">Date 2</option>
<option value="date3">Date 3</option>
<option value="date4">Date 4</option>
</select></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Course 3</td>
<td><select name="select3" id="select3">
<option value="date1">Date 1</option>
<option value="date2">Date 2</option>
<option value="date3">Date 3</option>
<option value="date4">Date 4</option>
</select></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td><input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="Submit" /></td>
</tr>
</table>

Can anybody help?!!!! PLEASE!!!!!
