Insert to database when the button is click - php

Question

im currently displaying all the information from the table product in a tabular format, i have a button ADD which when click should add only the id, name and price from the table product to the table product_add in the same database. but my problem is that when i click on the button ADD, nothing is entered in the product_add table.
<?php
include'connect.php';
$image =$_GET['image'];
$id =$_GET['id'];
$name =$_GET['name'];
$price=$_GET['price'];
$sql="SELECT * FROM product";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
if($result>0)
{
?>
<form method="post" id="form" name="form">
<table border='1'>
<?php
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
extract($row);
?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $row['id']?></td>
<td><img src=<?php echo $row['image'] ?> /></td>
<td><?php echo $row['name']?></td>
<td><?php echo $row['price']?></td>
<td><input type='button' value='ADD' id="insert" name="insert"/></td>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
</table>
</form>
<?php
}
if(isset($_REQUEST['insert']))
{
$insert = "INSERT INTO product_add(id, name, price)
VALUES ('$row[id]','$row['name']','$row['price']')";
$insertQuery=mysql_query($insert);
}
?>
</body>
</html>
I have updated the codes as shown below but the last row from the table product is being added to the table product_add. I want to add only a specific row when i click on the button submit.
<?php
include'connect.php';
$image = isset($_GET['image']) ? $_GET['image'] : "";
$id = isset($_GET['id']) ? $_GET['id'] : "";
$name = isset($_GET['name']) ? $_GET['name'] : "";
$price= isset($_GET['price']) ? $_GET['price'] : "";
$sql="SELECT * FROM product";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
if($result>0){
?>
<form method="POST" id="form" name="form">
<table border='1'>
<tr>
<th>Id</th>
<th>Image</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Price MUR</th>
</tr>
<?php
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
extract($row);
?>
<tr>
<td><input name="id" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['id']); ?>">
</td>
<td><img src=<?php echo $row['image'] ?> width='120' height='100'/></td>
<td><input name="name" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['name']);
?>"></td>
<td><input name="price" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['price']);
?>"></td>
<td>
<input id="submit" type="submit" name="submit" value='Add to cart' />
</td>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
</table>
</form>
<?php
}
if (isset($_REQUEST['submit']))
{
$insert = "INSERT INTO product_add(id, name, price) VALUES ('$id',
'$name','$price')";
$insertQuery=mysql_query($insert);
}
?>

Answer 1

Apart from the method (if your form uses POST, you should use $_POST in php), you do not have any form fields.
For example:
<?php echo $row['id']?>
Should be something like:
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="<?php echo $row['id']; ?>">
and:
<?php echo $row['name']?>
should be:
<input name="name" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($row['name']); ?>">
etc.
You should also switch to PDO or mysqli and prepared statements as the code you have now is vulnerable to sql injection. And ID's in html need to be unique.

Answer 2

One point is, you have multiple
<input type='button' ...>
with the same id="insert". ids must be unique within a web page.
The other thing is, you need a submit input to send the form
<input type="submit" ...>
From Submit Button state (type=submit)
The input element represents a button that, when activated, submits the form.
With <input type='button' ...> nothing happens, because it has no default action, see Button state (type=button)
The input element represents a button with no default behavior.
If you want an <input type='button' ...> to submit the form, you must do so by using some Javascript code.

Answer 3

One idea is to load content once the button is clicked.
js
$("#button").click(function() {
$("#holder").load("insert.php");
});
insert.php
$db->query("INSERT INTO table VALUES('one','two','three')");
