Insert array content into database - php - php

Question

I'm trying to insert in each row of database the variable $num which is an Array. I want to insert each array position in each row of database.
That's the code I have, and in the moment it is inserting the word "Array":
foreach($html2->find('small[class=menu-item__label__count]') as $aholder) {
$holderdes=$aholder->outertext;
}
preg_match_all('!\d+!', $holderdes, $num);
//preg_match_all('/(\([0-9]+)\)/', $holderdes,$num);
echo print_r($num);
echo("<script>console.log('PHP: ".$num."');</script>");
$insert="INSERT into spec_insert(designers) VALUES ('".$num."');";
$sql=mysql_query($insert);
if ($sql === TRUE) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: " ;
}
}

If you want to insert each array value to a specific column of DB table spec_insert then can use foreach() to retrieve the index value of array. Example
foreach($num as $val):
if(is_array($val)):
foreach($val as $v):
$insert="INSERT into spec_insert(designers) VALUES ('".$v."');";
$sql=mysql_query($insert);
endforeach;
else:
$insert="INSERT into spec_insert(designers) VALUES ('".$val."');";
$sql=mysql_query($insert);
endif;
endforeach;
