Now i would like to create a file to see the stored data, as an info file....like a table with the results or something. in phpmyadmin database i see the stored data as: a:2:{i:0;s:10:"sentra b15";i:1;s:10:"sentra b13";} thanks for your time index.php <html> <body> <form action="insert3.php" method="post"> Firstname: <input type="text" name="firstname[]"> <br> Firstname 2: <input type="text" name="firstname[]"> <br> Firstname 3: <input type="text" name="firstname[]"> <br> Firstname 4: <input type="text" name="firstname[]"> <br> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> insert.php <?php $con=mysqli_connect("localhost","inputmultiplicad","inputmultiplicado","inputmultiplicado"); // Check connection if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error(); } $data= $_POST['firstname']; $values= serialize($data); $sql="INSERT INTO input_field (firstname) VALUES ('$values')"; if (!mysqli_query($con,$sql)) { die('Error: ' . mysqli_error($con)); } echo "1 record added"; mysqli_close($con); ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psycho Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 You're using serialize() on the data before you store it in the database, so I'm guessing you would use unserialize() on the data after you extract it. But, note that storing data in that manner will severely limit what you can do with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unasemana Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 Psycho i see what you mean. I dont like serialized storage. Doing what you told me the data storage with differents ID, so how could i read/see the exactly info when i read it? I mean, if im doing a form to register a user info with: name, car model 1 (now with jquery i add dinamically the x numbers of different cars that the user have) if they record it with different ID i have change the code to this : index.php <html> <head> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.0.3.min.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script> </head> <body> <div class="my-form"> <form role="form" method="post" action="insert3.php"> <p class="text-box"> <label for="box1">Box <span class="box-number">1</span></label> <input type="text" name="firstname[]" value="" id="box1" /> <button type="button" class="add-box" href="#">+</button> </p> <p><input type="submit" value="Submit" /></p> </form> </div> <script> jQuery(document).ready(function($){ $('.my-form .add-box').click(function(){ var n = $('.text-box').length + 1; var box_html = $('<p class="text-box"><label for="box' + n + '">Box <span class="box-number">' + n + '</span></label> <input type="text" name="firstname[]" value="" id="box' + n + '" /> <button type="button" class="remove-box" href="#">-</button></p>'); box_html.hide(); $('.my-form p.text-box:last').after(box_html); box_html.fadeIn('slow'); return false; }); }); $('.my-form').on('click', '.remove-box', function(){ $(this).parent().css( 'background-color', '#FF6C6C' ); $(this).parent().fadeOut("slow", function() { $(this).remove(); $('.box-number').each(function(index){ $(this).text( index + 1 ); }); }); return false; }); </script> </body> </html> insert3.php (your code, psycho) <?php //Run array_map() with trim to trim all the values //Use array_filter() to remove empty values $firstnames = array_filter(array_map('trim', $_POST['firstname'])); if(!count($firstnames)) { echo "No data to insert"; } else { //Connect to DB $con=mysqli_connect("localhost","inputmultiplicad","inputmultiplicado","inputmultiplicado"); if (mysqli_connect_errno()) { echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error(); } //Use array_map() with mysql_real_escape_string() to sanitize values $firstnamesSQL = array_map('mysql_real_escape_string', $firstnames); //Implode the values into a string for the query $values = "('" . implode("'), ('", $firstnames) . "')"; $sql = "INSERT INTO input_field (firstname) VALUES {$values}"; if (!mysqli_query($con, $sql)) { die('Error: ' . mysqli_error($con)); } //Output success message echo count($firstnames) . " record(s) added"; //Close DB connection mysqli_close($con); } ?> thank you for trying to help man, i appreciate (excuse my english) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
