Im wondering if there is anyone out there that can have any idea why im getting this error on my script. I have been working on this script for a while, and cleaned it up to this point. I just need to get some of the fields on my form to populated automatically when an item is selected from the pipeno drop down list which is the trigger in this case. So far Iam just getting this two errors which appears to be what is hindering the script from autopopulating the required fields. Thanks for your contributions

Here are the errors

Error message is

Warning: pg_query(): Query failed: ERROR: syntax error at or near "," LINE 9: ...T wthick = 9.80, pipeno=837913,heatno1=56,pipeno2=,heatno2=6... ^ in C:\Users\iegbulefu\Documents\My Web Sites\Personal Site1\dropdown3.php on line 32

  • Why are you creating a function on the fly?? Commented Oct 29, 2012 at 15:45

    I also think PHP or your database access library might be getting confused by the $$ since $ seems to be used to denote variables in your database access code. Commented Oct 29, 2012 at 15:47
  • Your trigger function doesn't actually make any sense, it has an empty body. See postgresql.org/docs/current/static/plpgsql-trigger.html Commented Oct 29, 2012 at 23:48

Not sure why you are creating function on the fly and not just deploying it and executing.

For this error

Warning: pg_query(): Query failed: ERROR: function "updatefunction" already exists with same argument types in C:\Users\iegbulefu\Documents\My Web Sites\Personal Site1\autopopulate.php on line 35

Change CREATE FUNCTION to CREATE OR RELACE FUNCTION. This will drop it and recreate it if it already exists.

Thanks, I actually wanted to create a Trigger function there. I am not sure if im getting the syntax correct. I am not yet familiar with the Trigger function in postgresql which is what i wish to achieve there by making the pipeno selected in the dropdown list to be a trigger for the autopopulation of the the other fields. I have just modified the line, please take a look and see if you can help further. I apprecaite your input. thanks

You're using the variable $remark but declare it as $remarks. So you're probably missing a s once.

Thanks, I have corrected the error though it did'nt provide the solution but I believe it is one step to the solution. Thank you for your observation
