question about getting data displayed

tyriekfv 08 Jun, 2009
Ok I have no DB experience and was kind of hoping this would do my queries and post the data.

I had CC grab my data from my users table, and selected three fields to be displayed in the admin settings. I also named those three fields in the data view columns section. In the header I inserted <h1> IT WORKS! </h>. When the link is generated

It works! is the only thing that shows. The data from the database does not. There are only two test usernames in the DB. I followed the tutorial while doing this but did not enter any of the extra text in the body field. Thanks.

Hi, what are the fields names in your users table ?

anyone able to help me with this? My ultimate goal is to be able to pull information from a DB named standings and other sports related DB's. This tool does pull the info then places them in a table correct? Or can I say pre-generate the table code the way I want it to look on the page and place it into the body field and have CC put the info into that table?

Hi tyriekfv,

You create one line of your table and put it in the body section - something like
<tr><td>{user}</td><td>{username}</td><td>{email}}</td></tr>
I forget the exact syntax, but the tooltips will help.

The best thing that you can do now it to install ChronoConnectivity and try a few small experiments.
