i've Apach2, Mysql and php (also php-mysql); i'm trying to insert from a form (varchar, varchar, password, date, varchar)into the table utenti in my db music:
Describe Utenti
I'm using procedural style mysqli: It says me "Insert success" but it doesn't write for real on the Db;
<?php
$nome = $_POST['nome'];
$cognome = $_POST['cognome'];
$password = $_POST['password'];
$datanascita = $_POST['datanascita'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$host = "localhost";
$user = "root";
$password = "popolo";
$dbname = "music";
//Connessione
$con = mysqli_connect($host, $user, $password, $dbname);
//verifica eventuali errori
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo "Connesione fallita" . mysqli_connect_error();
exit();
} else {
echo "Connected \n";
//Inserting record in table using INSERT query
$mysqli = "INSERT INTO Utenti (`nome`, `cognome`, `password`, `datanascita`, `email`)
VALUES ($nome, $cognome, $password, $datanascita, $email)";
mysqli_query($conn, $mysqli);
echo "Insert success";
}
mysqli_close($conn);
?>

Answer 1

whatever your query succeeded or not this message echo "Insert success"; will output, you should check if your query succeeded first , you must your varchar in 2 '
$mysqli = "INSERT INTO Utenti (`nome`, `cognome`, `password`, `datanascita`, `email`)
VALUES ('$nome', '$cognome','$password', '$datanascita', '$email')";
you can check like this:
$result = mysqli_query($conn,$mysqli);
if($result){
echo "Insert success";
} else {
echo "Insert failed, Error: ".$mysqli->error;
}
