Guest Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Hey i was wondering what does the p. and pd. mean in the coding of php? ex) p.product_id
wizardsandwars Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 That's actually SQL, and it corolated tables. Really, it's an alias for the products (p) and products_description (pd) tables. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit.

Guest Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 oh man thank you very very very much that is exactly what i wanted to hear ;) now i can finally add onto my code :) is there anyways the defines that p. = products or does it automatically define itself as that?
Ajeh Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Those are osCommerce standards ... you could of use fred.products_id when using the TABLE_PRODUCT . ' fred ... blah blah But, p. for product and pd. for products_description was faster ... :wink:
wizardsandwars Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Somewhere in the SQL, you should find a section thast goes like.... select......from products p, products description pd This is what assignes p to products and pd to products_description. Best of luck. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: As of Oct 2006, I'm not as active in this forum as I used to be, but I still work with osC quite a bit.
