Question

I am creating nodes pro-grammatically by fetching emails. Where I am splitting the subject of the mail for creating it for specific group & the title of the node.
Now I want to fetch the group_id by the description of the group and wrote query for it, but it’s not working. Let me paste the code here..

list($group_name, $title_text) = explode(', ', $title);
$query = "SELECT * FROM {og} WHERE og_description = ' ".$group_name." ' ";
$group_details = db_query($query); 
while ($group = db_fetch_object($group_details)) {              
   $gid = $group->nid;
}
echo $gid;

echo $gid is giving nothing. Though $group_name = 'Logo design' & gid = 1442 for it in table.
Is there anything I am missing here ?

I have solved it. Here is the answer:-

$title = "ED's presentation, This content is for ed's presenation"; //This is the subject of the mail, which I am fetching.

list($group_name, $title_text) = explode(', ', $title);
$query = "SELECT nid FROM {og} WHERE og_description = '".$group_name."'";
$group_details = db_query($query);
while ($group = db_fetch_object($group_details)) {
{
  $gid = $group->nid;
}

Thanks 🙂
