I want to insert multiple data to mysql.
My PHP code which is Array input field:
pag1.php
<form method="post" action="page2.php">
<input type="text" name="option_id[]" size="1">
<input type="text" name="store_id[]" size="1">
<button type="submit" name="action" value="add" >Add</button>
</form>
page2.php
<?php
if(isset($_POST['action'])){
for ($i=0; $i < count($_POST['option_id']); $i++ ) {
$option_id = $_POST['option_id'][$i];
$store_id = $_POST['store_id'][$i];
// check if option id is exists or not
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM temp_cart WHERE option_id='$option_id' AND store_id='$store_id' ") or die (mysql_error());
if (mysql_num_rows($result) == 0){
//insert query
}
else {
//update query
}
}
}
?>
For loop is not work.
Your help would be very much appreciated.

I am currently creating a survey where the answers are entered into a database.
I have 2 main tables:
questions, with 2 columns: questionID and questionBody
answers, with 3 columns: answerID, questionID (I want this to be tied to the column in table questions) and answerBody.
On the HTML page I am planning to create there will be multiple questions with multiple text boxes to fill in correlating to each quesiton. Is it possible that when the person submits the form, the answers are inserted into table answers with the questionID being based on what field was filled out?
So for example, If I have questionBody as "What is this Question asking?" and the questionID as 1 in table questions, when I submit the form I want table answers to also have questionID 1 in there.
At the moment this is my code:
//Check if error variables have any values assigned
if (empty($answerError))
{
//Prepare database insert
$sql = "INSERT INTO answers (questionID, answerBody) VALUES (?,?)";
//Check if the statement has the connect and sql variables
if ($statement = mysqli_prepare($connect, $sql))
{
//Add variables to the statement
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($statement, "ss", $paramQuestion, $paramAnswer);
//Set the parameter to the answer
$paramQuestion = getQuestionName($connect);
$paramAnswer = $answer;
//Execute statement with entered variable
if (mysqli_stmt_execute($statement))
{
//Redirect user to success page
header("location: thankyou.php");
}
else
{
echo "Something went wrong. Please try again later.";
}
//Close statement
mysqli_stmt_close($statement);
}
}
and for the function getQuestionName():
function getQuestionName($connect)
{
$query = "SELECT * FROM questions";
$result = mysqli_query($connect, $query);
if ($result)
{
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC))
{
$questionID = $row['questionID'];
return $questionID;
}
}
}
The code I am using to output the form into a HTML page is:
function getQuestions($connect)
{
$query = "SELECT * FROM questions";
$result = mysqli_query($connect, $query);
if ($result)
{
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC))
{
$body = $row['questionBody'];
echo '<div class="entry">
<div class="questionTitle"><h3>' . $body . '</h3>
<form action="survey.php" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="answer" size="50" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit" />
</form>
</div>
</div>';
}
}
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated :)
Yes it's completely possible. Just put the question ID as a hidden field in the form, and it will be submitted along with the answer data when the form is submitted. Then you can retrieve it from the $_POST data just like the answer, and use it in your SQL query.
For example:
HTML form:
<form action="survey.php" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="questionID" value="<?php echo $row["questionID"]; ?>" />
<input type="text" name="answer" size="50" />
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit" />
</form>
survey.php:
$paramQuestion = $_POST["questionID"];
From your question, I will suggest you make use of input with a hidden attribute.
something like this
<input type='text' name='question-id' value="<?php echo $questionId ;?>" hidden>
The user doesn't see the input it get filled from whatever you are providing into it.
Editing your code, you should do something like this.
function getQuestions($connect)
{
$query = "SELECT * FROM questions";
$result = mysqli_query($connect, $query);
if ($result)
{
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result, MYSQLI_ASSOC))
{
$body = $row['questionBody'];
$questionId = $row['questionId'];
echo '<div class="entry">
<div class="questionTitle"><h3>' . $body . '</h3>
<form action="survey.php" method="POST">
<input type="text" name="answer" size="50" />
<input type="number"name="question-id" value="'.$questionId.'" hidden>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit" />
</form>
</div>
</div>';
}
}
How I can set unique id for html form which is in while loop, and get this id when check is the form is submit? You can check out my code:
while($row_lessons = mysqli_fetch_assoc($queryLessons)) {
echo 'someinfohere';
if(isset($_POST['buy'])) {
mysqli_query($link, "UPDATE users SET credits = credits - ".$row_lessons['price']." WHERE id = '".$_SESSION['userid']."' ");
mysqli_query($link, "INSERT INTO `lessonpurchases` (lesson_id, user_id, date) VALUES ('".$row_lessons['id']."', '".$_SESSION['userid']."', '".time()."')") or die(mysqli_error($link));
}
echo '
Цена: '.levche($row_lessons['price']).'лв. <br />
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="buy" value="Купи" />
</form>';
}
The unique id is needed, because when submit the form the mysql queries are being executed for all results in loop.
If you want to keep it simple:
$i = 1;
while($row_lessons = mysqli_fetch_assoc($queryLessons)) {
echo 'someinfohere';
if(isset($_POST['buy'.$i])) {
mysqli_query($link, "UPDATE users SET credits = credits - ".$row_lessons['price']." WHERE id = '".$_SESSION['userid']."' ");
mysqli_query($link, "INSERT INTO `lessonpurchases` (lesson_id, user_id, date) VALUES ('".$row_lessons['id']."', '".$_SESSION['userid']."', '".time()."')") or die(mysqli_error($link));
}
echo '
Цена: '.levche($row_lessons['price']).'лв. <br />
<form action="" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="buy'.$i.'" value="Купи" />
</form>';
$i++;
}
You can use uniqid() as follow
$formId = uniqid();
In your form you can use it like
<form action="" method="post" id="<?php echo $formId;?>">
<input type="hidden" name="formId" value="<?php echo $formId;?>" />
<input type="submit" name="buy" value="Купи" />
</form>
On form submission you will get the formId by using $_REQUEST['formId']
In the form below, students are selected from student table in my DB. For each student selected a checkbox is checked if the student is absent and left unchecked if the student is present. The form is later on submitted for it to be inserted in the exam_status table in my DB.
<form method="POST" action="action.php">
<?php
$query = "SELECT * from student ORDER BY student_name,student_surname";
$result=mysqli_query($conn,$query);
if(false===$result)
{
printf("error: %s \n",mysqli_error($conn));
}
while($row= $result->fetch_assoc())
{
$studentmatricule = $row['student_matricule'];
$studentname = $row['student_name'];
$studentsurname = $row['student_surname'];
?>
<div id="studentdiv">
<label>Matricule</label>
<input type="text" name="matricule[]" value="<?php echo "$studentmatricule)"; ?>" readonly>
<label>Name</label>
<input type="text" name="name[]" value="<?php echo "{$studentname} {$studentsurname}"; ?>" readonly>
<label > Absent
<input type="checkbox" name="absent[]" value="absent" />
</label>
</div> <br><br>
<?php
}
?>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>
and my action page "action.php" is as follows
$matricule = $_POST['matricule'];
$absent=$_POST['absent'];
for ($i=0; $i<sizeof($matricule); $i++)
{
if($absent[$i]=='absent')
{
$status='absent';
}else{
$status='present';
}
$query = "INSERT INTO exam_status (student_matricule,status) VALUES ('". $matricule[$i] . "','". $status . "')";
$result=mysqli_query($conn,$query);
}
Now the issue is it doesn't just work as i want. the result always gives the first student absent and the rest present. I have tried all i can and have really researched too but with no success at all. Please anyone around to help me out?
Thanks in advance!

}
$index = 0;
while($row= $result->fetch_assoc())
{

$studentname = $row['student_name'];
$studentsurname = $row['student_surname'];

Update your mail file like this. I have changed the form names into a single array. The reason is the checkbox values won't post to the page when the values are not checked. So its not possible to track which one was checked and which is not if you have same name.
And update your action.php like this,
<?php
$conn = mysqli_connect("localhost","username","password","db_name"); // update this values as per your configuration
$studenInfo = (!empty($_POST['studenInfo'])) ? $_POST['studenInfo'] : [];
foreach($studenInfo as $value ) {
$status = (isset($value['status'])) ? 'absent' : 'present';
$query = "INSERT INTO exam_status (student_name, student_matricule,status) VALUES ('". $value['name'] . "','". $value['matriculate'] . "','". $status . "')";
$result=mysqli_query($conn,$query);
}
?>
I have used my own table schema where i have added student_name in exam_status table for better tracking. Now you can see the values updating correctly. Also we can use bulk insert if we need to insert multiple data (Note : I haved used the bulk insert in this answer, i just followed the way you used)
I have a check box inside a while loop like this:
<form method="POST">
<?php $sql= mysql_query("SELECT * FROM names WHERE `id` ='$id' ");
while ($get = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){ ?>
<input type="checkbox" name="id_names" value="<? echo $get ['id'];?>"><?php echo $get ['name']; ?>
<?php } ?>
<input id="submitbtn" type="submit" value="Submit" /><br><br>
</form>
The problem is at this part I am unable to get specific checkbox properties and even if the user selects two check boxes I am unable to echo the id out
<?php
if(isset($_POST['id_names']))
{
$id_names= $_POST['id_names'];
$email = mysql_query("SELECT `email` FROM users WHERE `id` = '$id_names' ");
while ($getemail = mysql_fetch_array($email))
{
echo $getemail['email'];
}
}
?>
I have tried searching for answers but I am unable to understand them. Is there a simple way to do this?
The form name name="id_names" needs to be an array to allow the parameter to carry more than one value: name="id_names[]".
$_POST['id_names'] will now be an array of all the posted values.
Here your input field is multiple so you have to use name attribute as a array:
FYI: You are using mysql that is deprecated you should use mysqli/pdo.
<form method="POST" action="test.php">
<?php $sql= mysql_query("SELECT * FROM names WHERE `id` =$id ");
while ($get = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){ ?>
<input type="checkbox" name="id_names[]" value="<?php echo $get['id'];?>"><?php echo $get['name']; ?>
<input type="checkbox" name="id_names[]" value="<?php echo $get['id'];?>"><?php echo $get['name']; ?>
<?php } ?>
<input id="submitbtn" type="submit" value="Submit" /><br><br>
</form>
Form action: test.php (If your query is okay.)
<?php
if(isset($_POST['id_names'])){
foreach ($_POST['id_names'] as $id) {
$email = mysql_query("SELECT `email` FROM users WHERE `id` = $id");
$getemail = mysql_fetch_array($email); //Here always data will single so no need while loop
print_r($getemail);
}
}
?>
I want to selected items from mytable when using three tables and &_GET another id to open in this page so i want to use where and where to complete fetch my data by using two roles .
<?php
$sel = "SELECT * FROM `informations` where `cate_id` =".$_GET['info_id'];
$done = mysql_query($sel);
?>
<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<label for="location"></label>
<select name="location" id="location"><?php
$sel_cate = "SELECT * FROM locations";
$done_cate = mysql_query($sel_cate);
while($get_cate = mysql_fetch_array($done_cate)){
echo '<option value="'.$get_cate['id'].'">'.$get_cate['location'].'</option>';
$loc=$get_cate['id'];
}
?>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="go" id="go" value="Go">
<input type="submit" name="all" id="all" value="Show All...">
</form>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['go'])){
$sel ='SELECT * FROM `pharmacies` WHERE `cate_id` ="'.$_GET['info_id'].'" || `location_id` = "'.$_POST['location'].'"';
?>
I tried this code and when isset($_POST['go']) variable $sel got $_GET['info_id'] and $_POST['location'] values. Query generated without errors, and must fetch information.
I not see mysql_query in your: if(isset($_POST['go'])). Maybe you forget query:
if(isset($_POST['go']))
{
$sel = 'SELECT * FROM `pharmacies` WHERE `cate_id` ="'.addslashes($_GET['info_id']).'" or `location_id` = "'.addslashes($_POST['location']).'"';
$selRslt = mysql_query($sel);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($selRslt))
{
var_dump($row);
}
}
