PHP - Update Multiple Records In One Form
Hi there,
Im fairly new at php and mysql but nevertheless im trying to build a web based campaign game for starwars minatures boardgame. Its fairly straightforward and going well.. However ive been thinking about how it will work and have stumbled across a possible problem (because of my limited craft at programming). I want to have a single form that updates all records in the tables, this would simulate an "end of turn" button. Im sure i can do this if doing stuff in the game (e.g. move, create , modify, delete, fleets/ships and auto increment ships hulls simulating repair) if it was done on the same page. However i wanted to to initiate some of these adjustments in their respective pages (fleet.php, planets.php, ships.php etc) and then once the user is happy to click the end turn button somewhere which would update all of these things at the same time.. Is this possible at all??? If anybody could help that would be brilliant. Thank you p.s. if anybody wants a copy of the finished product when its complete, your most welcome. Similar TutorialsHi is it possible to update multiple records of the same table using a single hidden field with a while loop??? For example: Code: [Select] <?php if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) { $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE ships SET HealthA=%s WHERE ShipID=%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['healtha'], "int"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['shipid'], "text")); ?> <input name="healtha" type="hidden" id="healtha" value="<?php echo $row_Ships['HealthA'] + 1; ?>" /> <input name="shipid" type="hidden" id="shipid" value="<?php while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($Ships)){ echo $row_Ships['ShipID']; }?>" /> If its not possible what else could i do to achieve this please? Thank you Hi ive been stuck for a while now and i just cant get my head around it so if you could help i'd be well chuffed. I'm trying to update multple rows in a table depending upon the results of another. I have a form that enables me to update a table called fleet. Another table called ships is realted to the fleet table as each ship is in a fleet: fleet ----- Fleetname* Location Detected ships ------ ShipID* Fleetname * Shipname The particular fleet i am editing is parsed as a url parameter. I made a query to search for all the ships that are in the fleet i am editing: Code: [Select] $colname_ShipsInfleet = "-1"; if (isset($_GET['recordID'])) { $colname_ShipsInfleet = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['recordID'] : addslashes($_GET['recordID']); } mysql_select_db($database_swb, $swb); $query_ShipsInfleet = sprintf("SELECT * FROM ships WHERE FleetName = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_ShipsInfleet, "text")); $ShipsInfleet = mysql_query($query_ShipsInfleet, $swb) or die(mysql_error()); $row_ShipsInfleet = mysql_fetch_assoc($ShipsInfleet); $totalRows_ShipsInfleet = mysql_num_rows($ShipsInfleet); It searched the ships WHERE the FleetName (which is the primary key of the fleet table) is parsed as a url parameter. The appropriate ship records that are generated i want to use so a field can be updated. For example im updating a fleet record and and setting the location (Planet Name) to a different value. I want the Ship records that are of that particular fleet to update a field (PlanetName) in ship table when the fleet table is updated. Code: [Select] if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) { $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE ships WHERE ShipID = $row_ShipsInfleet['ShipID'] SET PlanetName=%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['select'], "text")); mysql_select_db($database_swb, $swb); $Result1 = mysql_query($updateSQL, $swb) or die(mysql_error()); $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE fleet SET PlanetName=%s, Detected=%s, Faction=%s WHERE FleetName=%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['select'], "text"), GetSQLValueString(isset($_POST['checkbox']) ? "true" : "", "defined","1","0"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenField2'], "int"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenField'], "text")); mysql_select_db($database_swb, $swb); $Result1 = mysql_query($updateSQL, $swb) or die(mysql_error()); I'm really not sure how to proceed here so please if you can help me out that would be ace. Thank You First of all excuse me if this topic is inappropriate in this forum. But I think it's rather a PHP problem. I can't figure out multiple duplicate database records on submitting a form. The database table have two columns: the first one 'Id' with AUTO_INCREMENT and the second one 'Name'. Here's the php code for database insertion and the form: ------------------------------------------------------------------ <?php if($_GET['add_name']){ $host = *******; $user = *******'; $pass = *******; $db = *******; $con = mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass) or die; mysql_select_db($db,$con); $name = $_GET['add_name']; $sql = "INSERT INTO names (Name) VALUES ('$name')"; mysql_query($sql); } ?> <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] ?>" method="GET"> Your Name: <input name="add_name" type="text" /> <input type="submit" value="Submit" /> </form> ------------------------------------------------------------------ After submitting the form to itself once I have multiple Name entries with different Ids. The curious thing is that with Chrome browser I get two duplicate records, with Mozilla - three of them. Seems like mysql_query runs multiple times. It works fine when submitting the form to a separate script and not to itself. Do I miss something? It must be very basic.
I have a hopefully small issue on a form submitting data to the mysql database table and email. The email side works fine as does the adding the data to the database table but if I upload two files, it stores the support ticket twice in the database table where as I want to store just once and the files be stored as a array in the database table. I got the code from the link https://www.codexworld.com/upload-multiple-images-store-in-database-php-mysql/
<?php require_once "registerconfig.php"; if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { // File upload configuration $targetDir = "support-ticket-images/"; $allowTypes = array('pdf','doc','docx','jpg','png','jpeg','gif'); $statusMsg = $errorMsg = $insertValuesSQL = $errorUpload = $errorUploadType = ''; // Escape user inputs for security $ticket_subject = htmlentities($_POST['ticket_subject'], ENT_QUOTES); $ticket_message = strip_tags($_POST['ticket_message'], ENT_QUOTES); $ticket_status ='PENDING SUPPORT'; $username = htmlentities($_SESSION["user_name"], ENT_QUOTES); $user_id = htmlentities($_SESSION["user_id"], ENT_QUOTES); $fileNames = array_filter($_FILES['files']['name']); if(!empty($fileNames)){ foreach($_FILES['files']['name'] as $key=>$val){ // File upload path $fileName = basename($_FILES['files']['name'][$key]); $targetFilePath = $targetDir . $fileName; // Check whether file type is valid $fileType = pathinfo($targetFilePath, PATHINFO_EXTENSION); if(in_array($fileType, $allowTypes)){ // Upload file to server if(move_uploaded_file($_FILES["files"]["tmp_name"][$key], $targetFilePath)){ // Image db insert sql $insertValuesSQL .= "('".$ticket_subject."','".$ticket_message."','".$fileName."','".$ticket_status."','".$username."', '".$user_id."'),"; }else{ $errorUpload .= $_FILES['files']['name'][$key].' | '; } }else{ $errorUploadType .= $_FILES['files']['name'][$key].' | '; } } if(!empty($insertValuesSQL)){ $insertValuesSQL = trim($insertValuesSQL, ','); // Insert image file name into database $insert = $link->query("INSERT INTO DB TABLE NAME (ticket_subject, ticket_message, file_name, ticket_status, user_name, user_id) VALUES $insertValuesSQL"); if($insert){ $to = "emailaddress"; $subject = "A new support ticket has been submitted"; $message = " <strong>$username</strong> has just created a support ticket, below is the support ticket <br /><br /> <u>Support Ticket Details</u> <br /><br> <strong>Support Ticket Subject</strong>: $ticket_subject <br/><br><strong>Support Ticket Message</strong>: $ticket_message <p><strong><u>Support Ticket Files</u></strong> <br> <img src='$fileName'> "; // Always set content-type when sending HTML email $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" .

I have a calendar that I am adding events to. If I want to edit only the date I can but only once after I make this update I am out. If I attempt to update the time or event title the database is never updated and I am no longer able to update the date. here is the controller for the save. Code: [Select] <?php function eventsave() { $details = $_POST; $this->load->model('eventsmodel'); $this->eventsmodel->eventsave($details,'', TRUE); redirect('/admin/events', 'location'); } ?> I have turned off the redirect to see if I was getting any errors and they seem to be non existent. Here is the model that is used to create a new entry and update a record. Code: [Select] <?php function eventsave($event) { $startdate = explode('-', $event['startdate']); $start = mktime($event['starthour'], $event['startmin'], 0, $startdate['0'], $startdate['1'], $startdate['2']); $end = mktime($event['endhour'], $event['endmin'], 0, $startdate['0'], $startdate['1'], $startdate['2']); $name = $event['name']; if (isset($event['id'])) { // if is true then this is an update not a new event $data = array( 'name' => $name, 'start' => $start, 'end' => $end ); $this->db->where('id', $id); $this->db->update('events', $data); }else{ $this->db->set('name', $name); $this->db->set('start', $start); $this->db->set('end', $end); $this->db->insert('events'); } } ?> I am using code igniter if that helps and the information being submitted by the form looks good. This is the submitted update array and the new event array is just missing the "id" Code: [Select] Array ( [name] => test [startdate] => 05-14-2011 [starthour] => 1 [startmin] => 0 [endhour] => 1 [endmin] => 0 [id] => 54 [saveevent] => save ) Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you. Hi all, I'm trying to make a query that allows the user to edit the name of a entry in SQL. I believe I have the corect Syntax but I'm not sure if I have the code set up correctly. I am using 2 queries when I think it is possible with one. The first query is used to Pint out results for a certain year and the second to update the names. Code: [Select] $desiredYear = $_POST['year']; $nameEdit = $_POST['edit']; $origName = $_POST['orig']; echo ' The year you have chosen is '.$desiredYear; $describeQuery = "SELECT ID, Name, (SELECT SUM(SalesVolume) as SalesVolume FROM MonthlySales WHERE ProductCode=Products.ID AND Year = '$desiredYear') AS num_sales FROM Products"; $editQuery = "UPDATE Products SET Name = '$nameEdit' WHERE Name ='$origName'"; $results = sqlsrv_query($conn, $describeQuery); echo '<table border="1" BORDERCOLOR=Black>'; echo '<tr><th bgcolor = "LightBlue">Name</th><th bgcolor = "LightBlue" >ID</th> <th bgcolor = "LightBlue" >Sales</th></tr>'; while($row = sqlsrv_fetch_array($results, SQLSRV_FETCH_ASSOC)) { echo '<tr>'; echo '<td >' .$row['Name'].'</td>'; echo '<td>' .$row['ID'].'</td>'; echo '<td>' .$row['num_sales'].'</td>'; echo '</tr>'; } echo '</table>'; sqlsrv_close($conn); Can somebody help me with this? Thank you Hi guys, I am trying to UPDATE some records on a mySQL database but can't seem to find out why it is not working. This is my code. Code: [Select] <?php $latitude = $_POST['lat_location']; $longitude = $_POST['long_location']; $unique_ID = $_POST['unique_ID']; include('connect2.php'); $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM user_location WHERE unit = '$unique_ID'"); $numrows = mysql_num_rows($query); if ($numrows == 1) { $query2="UPDATE user_location SET lat = '$latitude', long = '$longitude' WHERE unit = '$unique_ID'"; mysql_query($query2); $test = "matches"; } else { mysql_query("INSERT INTO user_location VALUES ('','$unique_ID','$latitude','$longitude')"); $test = "not match"; } echo $test . "<br />"; echo $numrows; ?> The script receives the data via the POST method and assigns it to variables. Then I query the database for one of those variables and check how many results are found. If 0 results are found then a new record is created on the database, but if there is 1 record found then the record that is found has to be UPDATED. When the result is 0 the scripts creates the new record fine, but if the result is 1 it doesn't update. I just can't figure out why. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanced, I have a problem . I 've been trying for a long time to make an update for php mysql to change the data. but every time I do not manage to make it work with a form. but it works if I only if I put this ($ sql = "UPDATE users SET username = 'value' WHERE id = 10 " ; ) so it only works when I put the value of the id. but I want in an html form to indicate what I want to change and what id goes. but I have tried so long that I do not feel like I so want someone help me. make the same database and same as my records and make the code and test it if it works show me please my database name : web test my table called : users my records are called : id int ( 11) AUTO_INNCREMENT username , varchar ( 255 ) password , varchar ( 255 ) first_name , varchar ( 255 ) last_name , varchar ( 255 ) email, varchar ( 255 ) Age, int ( 11) Look, my update.php is like this now <?php $servername = "localhost"; $username = "root"; $password = "....."; $dbname = "webtest"; $conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname); if ($conn->connect_error) { die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error); } $sql = "UPDATE users SET password='cotton candy' WHERE id=10"; if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) { echo "Record updated successfully"; } else { echo "Error updating record: " . $conn->error; } $conn->close(); ?> but now i have still have to go into the php file to change the valeu or the id but i looked on site and youtube how to put it in a simple html form but it still does not work. i want it in a html from. I want that when I enter the ID that the data of the user appears and that I can change any valeu separately. Hi there, hope have some help. I have a form where a user select time and days of the week (monday, tuesday..) that he is available. The insert script works fine, it insert and the days of week he checked in the table, the only problme is when i try to update each of them.
I used this code above, but is not working, instead of updating/inserting days that is selected is inserting multi-records with the same day of the week value.
here it is:
foreach($weekDay as $DaysofWeek){ $sql_days = "UPDATE available SET day_time = '$day_time', week_day = '$DaysofWeek' WHERE user_id = '$id_user'"; $update_availability = mysql_query($sql_days); } Hi,
I am trying to create an admin page for a local Gym Club to allow an Administrator to be able to update club prices which then show on different screens on the site.
I have been able to display the "Prices Admin" page which basically reads a MySQL database table (pricelist), display the description, member price and non-member price and allows the user to update any of these fields.
My problem is that when I try writing the data back to the database with the "UPDATE" statement it fails, what I mean is that nothing updates. I have at the moment commented out the actual update statement and put in a "file_put_contents" command" to try and work out what is in the various fields before the UPDATE is run. I find that the display/INPUT works perfectly well but when I do a foreach on the $record array variable I am getting strange results.
I may not have explained this very well but here are the relevant sections of my code;
// Display and Input section
<div id="admin-area"> I have a problem with an amend to an admin system I am trying to change. The shop stocks different colours of each product and the client wants to be able to update the stock levels of all colours of one product (which all share the same title) on one form. I have tried following some instructions on some sites and tried making my own and I can get it to display the form and the values correctly, but on submission it does nothing but direct me to a page without a title value in the address (e.g. www.example.com/example/stock_level_2.php?title=). I think it may be to do with the arrays I am using, has anyone got any ideas? Here is the code.

Hi I'm using this code to insert multiple records. The code executes but nothing is entered into my database. This usually happens when there's a mismatch in data types.
How do I ensure that description goes in as text which in sql is wrapped in single quotes, but also make sure the other variables go in as numeric.
// an array items to insert $array = array( 'theid' => $theid, 'descr' => $descr, 'costperunit' => $costperunit, 'quantity' => $quantity, 'costperlot' => $costperlot ); // begin the sql statement $sql1 = "INSERT INTO descriptions (jobid, description, costperunit, quantity, costperlot) VALUES "; $it = new ArrayIterator( $array ); // a new caching iterator gives us access to hasNext() $cit = new CachingIterator( $it ); // loop over the array foreach ( $cit as $value ) { // add to query $sql1 .= "('".$cit->key()."','" .$cit->current()."')"; if( $cit->hasNext() ) { $sql1 .= ","; } } I know how to pull data from sql table and limit down the results, what i wanted to do is pull data from a sql table 'finished' and list data that has paid='0' this is then limited to show the amount of rows set by variable 'maxPay' here is my list what im pulling atm; <h2>Payment </h2> <?php if($userType[user_type]==28){ $queryPay = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM finished WHERE paid='0'&&method!='FALSE'&&method!='credit';") or die(mysql_error()); $queryAdmin = mysql_query("SELECT maxPay FROM `admin`;") or die(mysql_error()); $row = mysql_num_rows($queryPay); //echo $row."row<br />"; $rowsArray = mysql_fetch_assoc($queryAdmin); $rows = $rowsArray[maxPay]; //echo $rows."rows<br />"; if($rows>$row){ $r=$row; } else{ $r=$rows; } $s=0; while($s<$r){ if($_POST[complete]==TRUE){ mysql_query("UPDATE `finished` SET `paid`='$_POST[paid]' WHERE `auctionID`='$_POST[aid]';"); $_POST[complete] = FALSE; } $s++; } $t=0; while($t<$r){ $queryuser = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM finished WHERE paid='0'&&method!='FALSE'&&method!='credit';") or die(mysql_error()); $user = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "username"); //echo $user; $item = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "itemName"); //echo $item; $value = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "marketPrice"); //echo $value; $method = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "method"); //echo $method; $id = mysql_result($queryuser, $t, "auctionID"); //echo $id; //echo $method; if($method=='isk'){ ?> <FORM method="post" action="pay.php"> <input type="hidden" name=complete value="TRUE" /> <input type="hidden" name=paid value="YES" /> <input type="hidden" name=username value="<? echo $user; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name=aid value="<? echo $id; ?>" /> <input type="submit" value="Paid" /><? echo $user." won a ".$item." he selected to receive ".$value."ISK."; echo "<br />"; ?></FORM><? } elseif($method=='ship'){ ?> <FORM method="post" action="pay.php"> <input type="hidden" name=complete value="TRUE" /> <input type="hidden" name=paid value="YES" /> <input type="hidden" name=username value="<? echo $user; ?>" /> <input type="hidden" name=aid value="<? echo $id; ?>" /> <input type="submit" value="Paid" /><? echo $user." won a ".$item." he selected to receive the ship."; echo "<br />"; ?></FORM><? } else{ } $t++; } } else{ echo "You are not an Admin."; } ?> and pay.php: <?php header('Location: /admin.php'); include "connect.php"; echo $_POST[aid]; if($_POST[complete]==TRUE){ $tempID = (($_POST[aid])+1); mysql_query("UPDATE `finished` SET `paid`='$_POST[paid]' WHERE `auctionID`='$tempID';") or die(mysql_error()); $_POST[complete] = FALSE; } ?> at the moment i am listing all my data, and processing it using pay.php, each dataset has a "paid" button, i want to change this to using a checkbox at end of each data row, and a submit button at the bottom. this way i can select which rows to update and tick the checkbox, then click submit and those rows will then be updated the value '0' in db to a value of 'YES'. hope i explained myself clearly enough for some help. im a relative php noob still in training. hello guys moving on from inserting multiple records im now stuck with updating multiple records. i can get most of the details nailed but i need it to match the id's for the table the code i have in the sql part are Code: [Select] if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { //Assign each array to a variable $StaffMember = $_POST['StaffMember']; $referrer = $_POST['referrer']; $referred = $_POST['referred']; $SentOut = $_POST['SentOut']; $today = date("y.m.d H:i:s"); $user_id = $_SESSION['user_id']; $IssueNum = $_POST['Referrerid']; $limit = count($StaffMember); $values = array(); // initialize an empty array to hold the values for($k=0;$k<$limit;$k++){ $msg[] = "$limit New KPI's Added"; $values[$k] = "( '{$StaffMember[$k]}', '{$referrer[$k]}', '{$referred[$k]}', '{$SentOut[$k]}', '{$today}', '{$user_id}' )"; // build the array of values for the query string } $query = "UPDATE `Referrer` (StaffMember, referer, referred, SentOut, SentOutDate, SentOutBy) VALUES " . implode( ', ', $values ) . " WHERE IssueNum= '{$IssueNum[$k]}'"; echo $query; } i obviously want the records updating where the issuenumber is the same and if the check box in the form is ticked help with this one?

One customer may have many orders, What I want to do is do a select on the two tables and get the customer info once, and then all the orders associated with the account. I saw how to do this once before using a join and then having to use a PHP foreach to break it up. I am just not sure of how to put the two together to make it work, or maybe there is an easier way completely. Any help is appreciated. Thanks B Example: Bob Smith Shoes Coat Boots Gloves Sally Jones Hat Purse Boots Umbrella Yes, I am going to be one of those guys today. I have never done XML anything, besides past 2-3 hours or so, and I am getting frustrated. I have learned how to create simple XML files and save them. I am however having hard time figuring out how to create and XML file when trying to access an table from databse. I am looking to export from "registered_users" table all "registrations" and include "first_name", "last_name" and "age"
Sample:
<registered_users>
<registration>
<first_name>Bob</first_name>
<last_name>Smith</last_name>
<age>36</age>
</registration>
<registration>
<first_name>Jack</first_name>
<last_name>Miller</last_name>
<age>45</age>
</registration>
</registered_users>
It would be nice if the file would be saved as spearate "all_users.xml"
Any help would be appreciated
Hi all! I have a page that is used to manage multiple user requests. The problem that I am having, is that it is supposed to send an email to the reporter any time their request is updated from this page. This works fine as long as I am doing one at a time, but when I try to update multiple records it doesn't send the emails. (All other functionality is working fine though.) Here is a summary of what I have so far: The form field to pass the users' emails Code: [Select] <input type="hidden" name="user_email<?= $arrValues["mantis_bug_id"] ?>" id="user_email<?= $arrValues["mantis_bug_id"] ?>" value="<?=$arrValues["email"]?>" /> This gets passed, along with the rest, to an update case on the same page, where I use a foreach() to process the multiple records: Code: [Select] foreach($_POST['chkResult'] as $intBugID){ . . . . . if (isset($_POST["user_email$intBugID"])){ $emailTo = $_POST["user_email$intBugID"]; $emailSubject = "Mantis issue $intBugID has been modified."; $emailContent = "Mantis issue $intBugID has recently been modified. Please review the changes that have been made here [link]</a><br />If you have any questions or concerns regarding this issue, please contact Mike or Matt.<br />Thank you,<br />The IT Team."; include_once("{$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']}/includes/Email.class.php"); $email = new Email(); $email->ContentType = "text/html"; $email->From = "me@myemail.org"; $email->FromName = "MOPS Mantis Bugtracker"; $email->to($emailTo); $email->bcc('me@myemail.org'); $email->subject($emailSubject); $email->setBody($emailContent); $email->send; echo 'User: ' . $emailTo. '<br />'; echo "User Email: " . $emailTo. "<br /><br />"; } }//end foreach As I said, this all works fine when I'm processing one issue at a time, but not when doing multiples. All other actions in the foreach() are also working. You'll notice that I'm echoing the username and email at the end for debugging purposes. The interesting thing is, that will output all of the correct usernames and emails for each user, it's just that the $email->send; just isn't working. Needless to say, this has become quite a frustrating bug to fix. Any help at all is much appreciated! Thanks, Mike |
