I am working on my chat script, however I only get every second sql entry on the page
I have posted my codes below
Add.php code:
<?php
mysql_connect( 'localhost:/tmp/mysql.sock', 'xxxxx', 'xxxxx' );
mysql_select_db( 'ios' );
mysql_query( "INSERT INTO chatitems VALUES ( null, null, '".mysql_real_escape_string( $_GET['user'] )."', '".mysql_real_escape_string( $_GET['message'] ). "')" );
header("Location: messages.php");
?>
messages.php code:
<?php
$host="localhost:/tmp/mysql.sock";
$username="xxxxx";
$password="xxxxx";
$db_name="ios";
$tbl_name="chatitems";
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name ORDER BY id DESC";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
$rows=mysql_fetch_array($result);
?>
