Saving array into multiple rows - php

Question

Hey how could I save array into multiple row in database please? I am using mysql database with php.
// GETTING ALL THE B NODE STUFFS AND PRINTING IT'S CONTENTS
$result = array();
foreach($document->getElementsByTagName('b') as $node){
$result[preg_replace('/:\s+$/','',$node->textContent)] = trim($node->nextSibling->textContent);
}
var_dump($result);
Here is the result am pulling from my array.
array
'Choose by Subject Category or Module Code' => string '' (length=0)
'
Back to Home page' => string '' (length=0)
'International' => string 'visiting students should consult the' (length=36)
'Undergraduate' => string 'students should refer to the relevant section of the UCC' (length=56)
'Postgraduate' => string 'students should refer to the relevant section of the UCC' (length=56)
'Credit Weighting' => string '5' (length=1)
'Teaching Period(s)' => string 'Teaching Period 1.' (length=18)
'No. of Students' => string 'Min 15, Max 30.' (length=15)
'Pre-requisite(s)' => string 'None' (length=4)
'Co-requisite(s)' => string 'None' (length=4)
'Teaching Methods' => string '1 x 4hr(s) Lectures; Other (Distance Education Module - Up to 146hrs Self Directed Study).' (length=90)
'Module Co-ordinator' => string 'Dr Peter Cleary, Department of Accounting, Finance and Information Systems.' (length=75)
'Lecturer(s)' => string 'Staff, Department of Accounting, Finance and Information Systems.' (length=65)
'Module Objective' => string 'To examine the management uses of accounting information and to enhance students ability to exert effective managerial control.' (length=127)
'Module Content' => string 'Topics include; the accounting information needs of management, costs and pricing; estimating costs; the identification of key performance indicators; budgeting for control; capital investment appraisal and implications for strategic planning and control.' (length=256)
'Learning Outcomes' => string 'On successful completion of this module, students should be able to:' (length=68)
'Assessment' => string 'Total Marks 100: Continuous Assessment 100 marks (Project/ Essay. Approximately 1500 words.).' (length=93)
'Compulsory Elements' => string 'Continuous Assessment.' (length=22)
'Penalties (for late submission of Course/Project Work etc.)' => string 'Where work is submitted up to and including 7 days late, 10% of the total marks available shall be deducted from the mark achieved. Where work is submitted up to and including 14 days late, 20% of the total marks available shall be deducted from the mark achieved. Work submitted 15 days late or more shall be assigned a mark of zero.' (length=336)
'Pass Standard and any Special Requirements for Passing Module' => string '40%.' (length=4)
'End of Year Written Examination Profile' => string 'No End of Year Written Examination.' (length=35)
'Requirements for Supplemental Examination' => string 'Marks in passed element(s) of Continuous Assessment are carried forward, Failed element(s) of Continuous Assessment must be repeated (Resubmission of revised Continuous Assessment).' (length=181)
I did try a for each statement with NSERT query inside but all the content was saved in a colum instead.
$array_data = implode("array_separator", $result);
foreach($result as $snode){
$query = sprintf("INSERT INTO save_array (ModuleCode) VALUES ('%s')",mysql_real_escape_string($snode));
mysql_query($query) or die('Error, insert query failed');
echo $snode.<br />';
}
echo '<br /><br /><br />';
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

You can loop on all elements of array and prepare SQL INSERT INTO statment, and when you do this execute it.

Answer 2

A quick answer would be to iterate through a foreach loop, concatenating the values into an INSERT query (for more information, see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/insert.html), and have the foreach loop exclude the keys "Undergraduate", "International", and "Postdoc", as well as any values that have length 0.
Your problem seems to be in the INSERT query. Try something like this:
$query = sprintf("INSERT INTO save_array (CreditWeighting, TeachingPeriod, NoofStudents, etc.)) VALUES ('%s')",mysql_real_escape_string($snode));
foreach ($result as $key => $value)
$query = $query . "$value";
And do some tweaking to get the query string just right.
