Hello,
I need to run a custom sql query and display it in a table what is the best way to do this?
Ok, haven't done this myself yet but maybe the VIEWS module allows this. Have a look at the module just in case.
There is a lady called Nancy ( She has made the drupal cookbook I think) she helped me like this. Create a page and put this into it.
$sql = 'SELECT sted, selskab, vej, username FROM {test}'; $header = array( array('data' => 'sted', 'field' => 'sted'), array('data' => 'selskab', 'field' => 'selskab'), array('data' => 'vej', 'field' => 'vej'), array('data' => 'username', 'field' => 'username'), ); $sql .= tablesort_sql($header); $result = pager_query($sql, 50); while ($data = db_fetch_object($result)) { $rows[] = array($data->sted, $data->selskab, $data->vej, $data->username, str_repeat('--',$data->d).$data->title); } if (!$rows) { $rows[] = array(array('data' => t('Empty at the moment..'), 'colspan' => '4')); } echo theme('table', $header, $rows); echo theme('pager', NULL, 50, 0);
Is it something like this ?
Thanks stbdk, that was incredibly helpful. Finally helped me crack a problem I had been grappling with for days (how to build a View, or a View-like table, based on a custom query).
This helped me a lot as well, thanks for sharing your idea.
Hi - I think I figured out at least part of what you're looking for, in the context of the views module in drupal6.10
