Pilot ID variable

[Aaron]

how do I get the pilot ID variable? I think it's $pilotcode or something but I think you need a line of code to acctually get the pilot id and put it in the variable. plz help

[Jeff]

<?php echo PilotData::GetPilotCode($pilot->code, $pilot->pilotid). ' ' .$pilot->firstname . ' ' . $pilot->lastname?>

[Aaron]

thanks, but it didn't work I talked to a guy that works for a webdesign company in teamspeak and he said it's referencing the PilotData part or something. He says I need to find a page that says this "class PilotData {..." and then put one of these in there with the filename that the class PilotData is found in "include(filename)" or "require_once(filename)". And then have that code you gave me afterwards. Any ideas where that file is that I'm missing?

[Jeff]

Where are you wanting to show the pilot info? The code will differ, depending on which page you are wanting to show.

[Aaron]

The way I have it set up, I have an html form (bookingform.html), and it's action (bookingresults.php). They're both placed in core/pages. I've made a simple booking system because my VA is military, there are no set routes, so pilots will simply go onto the booking page and fill out the info and it will add their flight to the routes database. The only problem right now is that I want the flight number to be $pilotid and just overwrite each time hey fill out the form, I just need the code to get the $pilotid.

I found the Pilotdata.class.php and the function I need to get the pilot ID. Now how do I put it in the php document so that it puts the pilot id in a variable for me?

[Jeff]

You are probably going to have to create a module so it can do what you want it to do. you can find the schedules and pilot modules in CORE/MODULES/SCHEDULES/SCHEDULES.PHP and CORE/MODULES/PILOTS/PILOTS.PHP

[Nabeel]

Jeff is right, you'll need to create a module to do that.

Check the docs

[Aaron]

I read over the docs, I'm still a bit confused. I don't see why I need a module, It works fine, the only error is that it can't find the pilot id variable. I tryed making it into a module and this is what I got and now idk what now.

class bookingsystem extends CodonModule

public $title = 'Booking System';
