PHP Foreach loop problem with mySQL INSERT INTO - php

Question

I am having a big issue.
This is the first time I sue a foreach and I do not even know if it's the right thing to use.
I have a textarea where my members can add some text.
They also have all the accounts where to send the posted text.
Accounts are of two types F and T.
They are shown as checkboxes.
So when a member types "submit" the text should be INSERTED in a specific table for EACH of the selected accounts. I thought php foreach was the right thing. But I am not sure anymore.
Please take in mind I do not know anything about foreach and arrays. So please when helping me, consider to provide the modded code =D . Thank you so much!
<?php
require_once('dbconnection.php');
$MembID = (int)$_COOKIE['Loggedin'];
?>
<form action="" method="post">
<p align="center"><textarea id="countable1" name="addit" cols="48" rows="10" style="border-color: #ccc; border-style: solid;"></textarea>

$result=mysql_query($queryF) or die("Errore select from TableF: ".mysql_error());

Answer 1

foreach ($thispostT as $valF)
{
$queryaddT="INSERT INTO TableG (ID,memberID,Type,IDAccount,Tuitting) VALUES (NULL,".$MembID.",'".$t."','".$valF."', '".$_POST['addit']."')";
$resultaddF=mysql_query($queryaddF) or die("Errore insert G: ".mysql_error());
}
please put start and ending bracket to your foreach loop and try i have not read the whole code but just found you missing the brackets. hope that helps you.

Answer 2

I think I know what you're doing...
You're going to need to do:
foreach($_POST as $key => $value) {
$type = substr($key,0,1);
$id = substr($key,1);
if($type == 't') {
// do insert for t table here
} else if($type == 'f') {
// do insert for f table here
}
}
I didn't test it but it should be something like this.

Answer 3

My suggestion is
create field name as t[] (array)
onchecked value will be passed on the next page
the form checkbox field should be like that
<input type="checkbox" name="t[]" value="< ?php echo $rowid?>" <?php echo $checkit;? > >
and when you Submit the form
GET THE VALUE and insert in to database;
< ?
if($_POST['t'])
{
foreach($_POST['t'] as $v)
{
queryaddT="INSERT INTO TableG (ID,memberID,Type,IDAccount,Tuitting) VALUES (NULL,".$MembID.",'".$t."','".$valF."', '".$_POST['addit']."')";
$resultaddF=mysql_query($queryaddF) or die("Errore insert G: ".mysql_error());
}
}
