PHP - Insert Date Into Mysql From Drop Down Menus
I am trying to insert a date into a mySQL table from html drop downs with php. Right now when I enter the date it goes into the database as 0000-00-00. Can anybody see why it might be doing this?
My html: Code: [Select] <label for='birthdate' >Birthdate (Optional):</label><br/> <select name='month' id='month' value='<?php echo $fgmembersite->SafeDisplay('month') ?>'> <option value="01" selected="January">January</option> <option value="02">February</option> <option value="03">March</option> etc... </select> <select name='day' id='day' value='<?php echo $fgmembersite->SafeDisplay('day') ?>'> <option value="01" selected="1">1</option> <option value="02">2</option> <option value="03">3</option> etc... </select> <select name='year' id='year' value='<?php echo $fgmembersite->SafeDisplay('year') ?>'> <option value="2010" selected="2010">2010</option> <option value="2009">2009</option> <option value="2008">2008</option> etc... </select> And my php to collect info: Code: [Select] $formvars['birthdate'] = $this->Sanitize($_POST['year'], $_POST['month'], $_POST['day']); php where I make table: Code: [Select] "birthdate DATE NOT NULL ,". php to insert into mysql: Code: [Select] $insert_query = 'insert into '.$this->tablename.'( name, address, birthdate, sex, program, guide, email, username, password, confirmcode ) values ( "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['name']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['address']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['birthdate']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['sex']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['program']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['guide']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['email']) . '", "' . $this->SanitizeForSQL($formvars['username']) . '", "' . md5($formvars['password']) . '", "' . $confirmcode . '" )'; Thank you! Similar TutorialsI got some help here about 6 months ago with drop down menus & I need a little more. I'm working on a form that has about 20 drop down menus, each populated from a mysql database table with about 50 entries each. I need to keep the selected menu option on the form after the form is submitted but each time the form is submitted the selected menu option reverts back to the first item in the database table. Is there any practical way to fix this problem other than using javascript to finish up? guys, im having a problem here thats making me crazy im making a system and i want to insert the current date in the mysql. I have the field called 'data' in the DB, but when i make the code to insert all the other fields, including the 'data', its work perfectly... unless that damn date! $query = "INSERT INTO news (id, titulo, mensagem, data) VALUES (NULL, '$titulo', '$mensagem', 'date(\"d/m/Y\")')"; whats wrong with that? its stores in DB as '0000-00-00'. I'm a newbie on php. I'm really a system administrator and I was just task to do this simple task. For me its hard but I'm sure for a programmer this is very simple. My agenda is to pull out data on one of my column in mysql, select it and dump it on mysql. Here is the php for retrieving mysql data Code: [Select] <?php function database_connect($users) { $resource_link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root"); if (mysql_select_db($users, $resource_link)) { return $resource_link; } else { echo "Cannot connect to DB"; return false; } } function print_dropdown($query, $link){ $queried = mysql_query($query, $link); $menu = '<select username="username">'; while ($result = mysql_fetch_array($queried)) { $menu .= ' <option value="' . $result['id'] . '">' . $result['username'] . '</option>'; } $menu .= '</select>'; return $menu; } //Some other form elements, or just start a form. echo '<form method="post" action="create2.php">'; //The important bit echo print_dropdown("SELECT username FROM mailbox;", database_connect("users")); //Some other form elements, or just end the form. echo '<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit"/></form>'; Here is the content of my create2.php. This is the php page who do the insert on my mysql. Code: [Select] <?php // open the connection $conn = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root"); // pick the database to use mysql_select_db("users",$conn); // create the SQL statement $sql2 = "INSERT INTO mailbox values ('','locked','','$_POST[username]','',NOW(),'','locked','')"; // for troubleshooting $result = mysql_query($sql2, $conn) or die(mysql_error()); // execute the SQL statement //if (mysql_query($sql2, $conn)) { // echo "Success"; //} else { // echo "Fail"; //} } ?> When I click the submit button, I don't see any record being inserted on my table. I'm using the create2.php on my other page though it is only an insert/fill up form not like this one that I need to pull up the date, select and insert to mysql. hi there..im new to php mysql and im having trouble inserting a string data to mysql from a php date() function. here's my code: Code: [Select] $year = date('Y'); echo $year; $insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO tbl_elections (election_id=$year)"); mysql_select_db($database_organizazone_db, $organizazone_db); $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $organizazone_db) or die(mysql_error()); when i try to output the $year variable on a webpage, it returns "2012" but when i try to insert this data into my database table, it returns an error like this: check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '=2012)' is there a way to convert "2012" into a normal string data type? I am simply trying to insert a value generated from an array in a while loop, but it seems the value is not global and I can't pass it as I like. I did some research on this, but could not find an answer that solved my issue... Here is my select box code which is working perfect: <select name="city"> <?php $sql = "SELECT id, city_name FROM cities ". "ORDER BY city_name"; $results_set = (mysqli_query($cxn, $sql)) or die("Was not able to produce the result set!"); while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($results_set)) { echo "<option value=$row[id]>$row[city_name]</option>"; } ?> </select> Are any variables defined in a while loop global to the while loop only? Here is my SQL which you can see my $row[id] being passed thru field city_id... The value is being generated as supposed to based on value like: value="1", value="2" etc.. for the select options for each city name. So the values are there... But I CANNOT get that numerical id to pass to the database when submitting my form. Any ideas for a workaround to get this value passing as normal? if (isset($_POST['addPosting'])) { $query = "INSERT INTO Postings (id, city_id, title, description) VALUES ('','$row[id]','$_POST[title]','$_POST[description]')"; Hi I was just wondering if someone could send me a good tutorial on pulling several fields from a table and displaying them all in one drop down menu for people to select one of them. I dont know what this is called to I dont know what to research online. Hello everyone, I am trying triple drop down menu first and second menus are working but third one is not working and also the data is not being displayed on the webpage even though I have used "echo" command.. I am unsure what is the problem and how to correct it. So I am attaching my code in this email, could you please look into it and help me with it. I have 1st drop menu for State : Tennessee Alabama Georgia 2nd Drop down list for County: Anderson Bredford Benton 3rd Drop down list for Genus Acer Aristida Eg: Tennnesse -> Anderson, Bredford, Benton and Anderson -> Acer, Aristida and when I select Tennesse->Anderson->Acer it has to display all the information of the table based on these selected values. Could you please help me with this. This is my link for the complete code http://pastebin.com/vvLrpCcr The execution link is http://sozog.utc.edu/~tdv131/MYSQL/genus1c.htm Hi I have a single page submission update page which incorporates 7 drop down menus and 2 text input fields, everything works fine with the data updating back to the database, the only thing is that when the page is updated all the drop down menus are updated which includes ones that I don't want updated? I need to only update the drop down menus that have been selected? but am unsure how I do it? This is the code from the page, sorry if its a mess but I am not that experienced at the moment. This is a snippet of one of the drop down menus Code: [Select] <tr> <td class="heading">Current Status</td> <td><?php echo $statusdescrip ['status_description']; ?> <select name="status_id" > <?php $status_set = findstatus(); $statuslist = mysql_fetch_assoc ($status_set); ?> <?php do { ?> <option value="<?php echo $statuslist ['status_id']; ?>" ><?php echo $statuslist ['status_description']; ?></option> <?php } while ($statuslist = mysql_fetch_assoc ($status_set)); ?></select> <span class="compuls">*</span></td> </tr> I'm simply trying to set up a form where, if when a user clicks 'Submit', and then 'Back', the values from the form are preserved. My question is, how do I preserve the values of drop down menus. The following is a snippet of my code: Code: [Select] <select name="dropdown_dept" id="dept_list"> <option value=0><?php echo "Please select one..."?></option> <?php $dropdown_dept = "select dept_name from departments"; $result_dept = $db_conn->query($dropdown_dept); if (!$result_dept) { echo '<p>Unable to get department data.</p>'; return false; } for($i=0; $i<$result_dept->num_rows; $i++) { $app_name_row = $result_dept -> fetch_array(); ?> <option><?php echo($app_name_row[0]); ?></option> <? } ?> </select> Above is where I have set up a drop down menu of departments. Given that code, how can I preserve the department name after a user clicks 'Submit'? Ok, I have one database three tables. Table 1 is ncmr the main table where everything is to be entered. Table 2 is companies, where all the companies in pull down menu 1 is located. Table 3 is fabricators, where all the people who have had hands on the product are residing. I want the selected choices of table 2 and 3 to be inputed into table 1. I know this has to be possible, but I don't know how. I thought I wrote the code correctly, but it seems not. Can someone review my code and show me where my mistake is? Here is the page: http://kaboomlabs.com/PDI/post2.php Thanks.

Hi I have an update page with multipule drop down menus, I am looking for a way to allow only the drop down menus that have been altered to be sent to the database. One way was to add the following code, where the $type_id equals 0 then add nothing to the database. Code: [Select] if ($type_id == 0) { $type_id = ""; } However I am getting a syntex error with this, if I enter a value into the $type_id it selects that fine. eg.

I'm attempting to convert that string to a Date, and then insert that date into a MySQL DATE field. The problem is, every time I try to do so, I keep getting values like this in the database: 1970-01-01. Any ideas? Much appreciated. Hi I have started my error checking for my form. I am understand that the date must be inserted in the format yyyy/mm/dd but on my form i need it to be inserted in the format dd/mm/yyyy. I have wrote some code but have only been doing php about a week properly so I can't see what my error is. Whenever I try to insert the date, the form its self does not error but if i check the database the date is simply 0000/00/00. Can anyone help? if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $first_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['first_name']); $last_name = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['last_name']); $DOB = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['DOB']); $sex = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['sex']); $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['email']); $username = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['username']); $password = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['password']); $agree = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['agreed']); $creation_date = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['creation_date']); $user_type = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['member_type']); $access_level = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['access_level']); $validation = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['validation_id']); $club_user = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['user_type']); $date_check = "/^([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{2})/([0-9]{4})$/"; if($first_name == "") { $message = "Please enter a first name"; $success = 0; } else if($last_name == "") { $message = "Please enter a surname"; $success = 0; } else if($DOB =="") { $message = "Please enter your date of birth."; $success = 0; } else if(!(preg_match("/^([0-9]{2})\/([0-9]{2})\/([0-9]{4})$/", $DOB))) { $message = "Please enter your birthday in the format dd/mm/yyyy"; $success = 0; } else if($email =="") { $message = "Please enter a correct email."; $success = 0; } else if($username =="") { $message = "Please enter a username."; $success = 0; } else if($password =="") { $message = "Please enter a password greater than 6 characters long."; $success = 0; } else { $DOB = $explode[2]."-".$explode[1]."-".$explode[0]; $password_md5 = md5($password); $insert_member= "INSERT INTO Members (`first_name`,`last_name`,`DOB`,`sex`,`email`,`username`,`password`,`agree`,`creation_date`,`usertype`,`access_level`,`validationID`) VALUES ('".$first_name."','".$last_name."','".$DOB."','".$sex."','".$email."','".$username."','".$password_md5."','".$agree."','".$creation_date."','".$user_type."','".$access_level."', '".$validation."')"; $insert_member_now= mysql_query($insert_member) or die(mysql_error()); $url = "thankyou.php?name=".$_POST['username']; header('Location: '.$url); Hi, new to php so please excuse the simplicity of my questions. I have a menu list that inserts data into a field, is it possible with php to insert a date into another field dpendent on value? For example: MenuList - Status1, Status, Status3 inserted into tblfieldStatus when selected 3 other fields in same table are Status1DateNow Status2DateNow Status3DateNow If a user selected Status2 from menu then Status2Date would be populated with the date today? Kind regards What I'm basically trying to accomplish is, that the datetime of the user posted information is registered with the Now() function in the query, BUT that the user entered information gets echo'd out with the Date showing ONLY. What I have is this: -Just as an example- INSERT INTO db (date_created) VALUES (now()) while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($data)) { echo '<tr><td>' . $row['date_created'] . '</td></tr>'; } mysqli_close($dbc); With this way of course I get Date and Time showcased just like it's inserted into the DB. What would be a legit way of showcasing just date. Thanks for help. EDIT: or is there a better way than using now() to showcase the date when the user entered information was posted? i have been trying to insert date with when users post there comment but when i echo the date() with the comments..it just display 0000.00.00.00 just like that and when i checked my DB it was like that too..please what can i do.this is my code Thankd in advance Code: [Select] <?php include"header.php"; if(isset($_POST['submit'])) { $postdate=mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d")+1,date("y")); $comment=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['comment']); if($comment!=='') { $ins="INSERT INTO post(post_content,post_date)VALUES('$comment','$postdate')"; mysql_query($ins) or die(mysql_error()); } else { echo"You can not post an empty page"; } } Created a dynamic drop down box which pulls values from three columns from the database. However my insert function is not injecting the values in and i get an undefined index error. html> <div id = "form" align="center"> <h1> Create a repair Ticket </h1> <?php // Connects to Database mysql_connect("localhost", "bla", "bla") or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db("bla bla") or die(mysql_error()); ?> <form> <p> Choose the machine to be repaired: </p> <select> <?php // This query selects the machine_id and name from the machine table and stores in the "result" variable. $sql="SELECT machine_id,description FROM machine"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo ("<option value=".$data['machine_id'].">". $data['description']."</option>"); ?> <?php } ?> </select> <p> Choose the engineer to be allocated: </p> <select> <?php // This query selects engineer_id and name $sql="SELECT engineer_id,engineer_name FROM engineer"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo ("<option value=".$data['engineer_id'].">". $data['engineer_name']."</option>"); ?> <?php } ?> </select> <p> Choose the part to be allocated: </p> <select> <?php // This query selects the part_number and description $sql="SELECT part_number,description FROM parts"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) { echo ("<option value=".$data['part_number'].">". $data['description']."</option>"); ?> <?php } ?> </select> <p> Reported By: <input type="text" name="reported_by" /> </p> <p><b>Fault Description</b> </p> <textarea cols="50" rows="4" name="fault_description" align="right" wrap="virtual"></textarea> </form> <form action="insert.php" method="post"> <input type="Submit"> </div> <?php ini_set("display_errors", "1"); error_reporting(E_ALL); $con = mysql_connect("localhost","bla","bla"); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("bla", $con); $machine_id= $_POST['machine_id']; $reportedby= $_POST['reported_by']; $Date = date("d/m/y"); $fault_description =$_POST['fault_description']; $repaired_by = $_POST['engineer_name']; $part_used = $_POST['description']; $sql="INSERT INTO repairs (machine_number,reported_by,repair_start_date,fault description,repaired_by,part_used) VALUES ('".$machine_id."', '".$reportedby."','".$Date."','".$fault_description."','".$repairedby."','".$part_used."')"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_close($con); echo "You records have been updated"; ?> Does anybody know how to take the queried standard date format - 2012-04-02 for example - and print it to the page as April 2, 2012?
