php/pdo insert into database mssql with arrays - php

Question

I need some help
Is there a way to make this in PDO? https://stackoverflow.com/a/1899508/6208408
Yes I know I could change to mysql but I use a mssql server and can't use mysql. I tried some things but I'm not as good with PDO as mysql... It's hard to find some good examples of inserting array's into database with PDO. So quickly said I have a PDO based code connected to a mssql webserver.
best regards joep
I tried this before:
//id
$com_id = $_POST['com_id'];
//array
$mon_barcode = $_POST['mon_barcode'];
$mon_merk = $_POST['mon_merk'];
$mon_type = $_POST['mon_type'];
$mon_inch = $_POST['mon_inch'];
$mon_a_date = $_POST['mon_a_date'];
$mon_a_prijs = $_POST['mon_a_prijs'];
$data = array_merge($mon_barcode, $mon_merk, $mon_type, $mon_inch, $mon_a_date, $mon_a_prijs);
try{
$sql = "INSERT INTO IA_Monitor (Com_ID, Barcode, Merk, Type, Inch, Aanschaf_dat, Aanschaf_waarde) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?)";
$insertData = array();
foreach($_POST['mon_barcode'] as $i => $barcode)
{
$insertData[] = $barcode;
}
if (!empty($insertData))
{
implode(', ', $insertData);
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
$stmt->execute($insertData);
}
}catch(PDOException $e){
echo $sql . "<br>" . $e->getMessage();
}
$conn = null;

The code below should fix your problems.
$db_username='';
$db_password='';
$conn = new \PDO("sqlsrv:Server=localhost,1521;Database=testdb", $db_username, $db_password,[]);
//above added per #YourCommonSense's request to provide a complete example to a code fragment
if (isset($_POST['com_id'])) { //was com_id posted?
//id
$com_id = $_POST['com_id'];
//array
$mon_barcode = $_POST['mon_barcode'];
$mon_merk = $_POST['mon_merk'];
$mon_type = $_POST['mon_type'];
$mon_inch = $_POST['mon_inch'];
$mon_a_date = $_POST['mon_a_date'];
$mon_a_prijs = $_POST['mon_a_prijs'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO IA_Monitor (Com_ID, Barcode, Merk, Type, Inch, Aanschaf_dat, Aanschaf_waarde) VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?)";
try {
$stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
foreach ($mon_barcode as $i => $barcode) {
$stmt->execute([$com_id, $barcode, $mon_merk[$i], $mon_type[$i], $mon_inch[$i], $mon_a_date[$i], $mon_a_prijs[$i]]);
}
} catch (\PDOException $e) {
echo $sql . "<br>" . $e->getMessage();
}
}
$conn = null;
