Php If in MySql query (hiding labels if a field is empty)

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

Okay, I've been trying to do this for a while, and I'm finally going to ask for help so I can get the simple answer and feel like an idoit .

Anyway, I'm building a dynamic driver profile page for my NASCAR website. I have sections for hometown, driver website, spouse, etc.

This is all displayed down the side of the page. However, if there is a single driver that has no spouse, there is still an area where the Spouse label is displayed when it is on the website.

Each page has labels going down for each field in the MySql table. These show when the MySql database is queried.

Hopefully that makes since?

Anyway, here is what I have tried and all it does is break the page.

<?php
// Connects to your Database
mysql_connect("BLAH BLAH BLAH", BLAH BLAH BLAH", "BLAH BLAH BLAH") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("BLAH BLAH BLAH") or die(mysql_error());
$data = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `BLAH BLAH BLAH` WHERE `BLAH BLAH BLAH` = 'BLAH BLAH BLAH'") or die(mysql_error());

while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $data ))
{
if (".$info['spouse']."=="")
{echo "None";}
else {echo "Spouse: ".$info['spouse'] . "";}
}
?>


Any help is really, really, really, really appreciated
