Question

Please may I ask for some assistance on this as I have been trying to fix for days now.It is accepting data when i key in but not appearing in the database when i check.
Here is my code
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
if (isset($_POST["btnSave"])) {
$db = new \dbPlayer\dbPlayer();
$msg = $db->open();
//echo '<script type="text/javascript"> alert("'.$msg.'");</script>';
if ($msg = "true") {
$userIds = $db->getAutoId("U");
$flup = new fileUploader\fileUploader();
$perPhoto = $flup->upload("/hms/files/photos/",$_FILES['perPhoto'], $userIds[1]);
// var_dump($perPhoto);
$handyCam=new \handyCam\handyCam();
if (strpos($perPhoto, 'Error:') === false) {
$dateNow=date("Y-m-d");
$data = array(
'userId' => $userIds[1],
'name' => $_POST['name'],
'studentId' => $_POST['studentId'],
'cellNo' => $_POST['cellNo'],
'gender' => $_POST['gender'],
'dob' => $handyCam->parseAppDate($_POST['dob']),
'passportNo' => $_POST['passportNo'],
'fatherName' => $_POST['fatherName'],
'fatherCellNo' => $_POST['fatherCellNo'],
'perPhoto' => $perPhoto,
'isActive' => 'Y'
);
$result = $db->insertData("studentinfo",$data);
if($result>=0) {
$id =intval($userIds[0])+1;
$query="UPDATE auto_id set number=".$id." where prefix='U';";
$result=$db->update($query)

Use this form to fix your problem
if(isset($_POST["btn-pub"]))
{
$title = $_POST["title"];
$cat = $_POST["postCat"];
$Author = "Imran AKKI";
$ImgName = $_FILES['PostImg']['name'];
$ImgTemp = $_FILES['PostImg']['tmp_name'];
$cont = $_POST["postCon"];
if (empty($title) || empty($cont)){
?>
<div class="alert alert-danger"><?php echo "Please fill in the fields"; ?>
</div>
<?php
}elseif($cont > 10000){
?>
<div class="alert alert-warning"><?php echo "The content of the post is very large"; ?>
</div>
<?php
}else{
$postImage = rand(0,10000)."_".$ImgName;
move_uploaded_file($ImgTemp,"Uploads\postImges\\" .$postImage);
$query = "INSERT INTO posts(PostTitle, PostCat, PostImg, PostContent,PostAuthor) VALUES ('$title','$cat','$postImage','$cont','$Author')";
$res=mysqli_query($conn,$query);
if(isset($res)){
?>
<div class="alert alert-success"><?php echo "The article was added successfully"; ?> </div>
<?php
}else{
?>
<div class="alert alert-danger"><?php echo "An error occurred during addition"; ?> </div>
<?php
}
}
}
