I have table with many rows. I have exp date and I want to change status of those rows where date is already exp.
It work well if I do not use UPDATE. If I just echo them. But when I want to UPDATE status of this row to 0, problems start. My problem is that it change only 1 row and not all of them that needs to be whit status 0.
$sql = "SELECT * FROM table";
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);
$resultcheck = mysqli_num_rows($result);
$id = $row['id'];
if($resultcheck > 0) {
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$expdate = $row['date'];
$exp = strtotime($date);
$today = date('m/d/Y');
$td = strtotime($today);
if($td>$exp) {
$status=0;
$sql = " UPDATE table SET status = '$status' WHERE ID = '$id' ";
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $sql);
}
}
}
Any advice how to fix that, I tried several option but nothing worked.
row['id'] instead of $id.$sql = " UPDATE table SET status = '$status' WHERE ID = 'row['id']' ";
$result for update. You are reusing the same variable name, hence, after a success update, it will set $result to true and the while loop will stop.
