Question

I have two fields in one table.

One being named Junior with two outputs of either yes or no.
The other being named Result with a string as a sentence saying..Here is the result

If Junior is equal to Yes then I want to add ‘(Jr.)’ to the end of the string..saying
‘Here is the result (Jr.)’

How would I accomplish this?

$bio[‘results’] is my array for my query.

if ($bio['results']['Junior'] == 'Yes' {
    what would go here? 
}); 

EDIT: I want concatenate (‘Jr’) to the end of my string ‘Here is the result’
resulting in ‘Here is the result (Jr.)’ Sorry for the typo.

I would appreciate any help! Thanks!

I am quite confident, I can guess what you want. 🙂

if ($bio['results']['Junior'] == 'Yes') {
     $bio['results']['Result'] = $bio['results']['Result'].' (Jr.)';
}; 

If you want to write the result string back into the database, you will need sql.

For example (because you were asking):

query_function("UPDATE tablename SET Result = '".escaping_function($result)."' WHERE id = ".intval($id).";");

assuming, you wrote the string into the variable $result (it’s cleaner).

Since I don’t know your database system or table name, I used aliases for the functions.
