Question

I am showing an image on my page from the db table like this:

<?php
if ($db_found) {
$SQL = "SELECT * FROM myTable where id='$posted_id'";
$result = mysql_query($SQL);

while ($db_field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {

echo '<img src="images/'.$db_field['image'].'" alt="" />';

}
mysql_close($db_handle);
}
?>

<a href="#">Next</a>

How can I do so that if $posted_id is for example 1 … when I click the “Next” link the image id = 2 appears and so on.

Answer 1

for that you need to either refresh page or use ajax.

you can pass variable posted_id in url like this.

<a href="www.yourwebsite.com?posted_id=<?php echo ($db_field['id'] + 1);?>">Next</a>

this way you can pass next id from database .. if your id falls in sequence.

you also need to programatically handle issue like what to do if record of next id does’t exist in database..
