Insert record into MYSQL table as part of PHPmailer script


Recommended Posts

I'm currently trying to insert a record into a database as part of the PHPmailer. This is the code I have so far but the insert row doesn't seem to be doing anything.

[code]<?php require_once('../../Connections/Conn1.php'); ?>
<?php
mysql_select_db($database_Conn1, $Conn1);
$query_UpdateCustInfo = "SELECT * FROM Customer";
$UpdateCustInfo = mysql_query($query_UpdateCustInfo, $Conn1) or die(mysql_error());
$row_UpdateCustInfo = mysql_fetch_assoc($UpdateCustInfo);
$totalRows_UpdateCustInfo = mysql_num_rows($UpdateCustInfo);

$company = $_POST['Company'];
$first = $_POST['FirstName'];
$last = $_POST['LastName'];
$event = $_POST['Event'];
$price = $_POST['Price'];

mysql_query("INSERT INTO CUSTOMER (Company, `First Name`, `Last Name`, Event, price) VALUES ('$Company', '$first', '$last', '$event', '$price')");
mysql_close();

// Grab our config settings
require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/PHPdocs/phpmailer/config.php');

// Grab the FreakMailer class
require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/PHPdocs/phpmailer/MailClass.inc');

// instantiate the class
$mailer = new FreakMailer();

// Set the subject
$mailer->Subject = 'This is a test';

$mailer->isHTML(true);

// Send the E-Mail
// Body
$mailer->Body = '<link href="http://www.womeninbusiness.co.uk/Templates/invoice.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

Any help is as ever - greatly appreciated.
Peace

mysql_query("INSERT INTO CUSTOMER (Company, `First Name`, `Last Name`, Event, price) VALUES ('$Company', '$first', '$last', '$event', '$price')");
mysql_close();

you have quoted around the table field names, only quote the values.

if you have the following after your query  it will show what the problem is.   
or die(mysql_error());
Just made those changes, the mail form works fine, but nothing seems to happen with the MYSQL - I get no error message either.

[code]<?php require_once('../../Connections/Conn1.php'); ?>
<?php
mysql_select_db($database_Conn1, $Conn1);
$query_UpdateCustInfo = "SELECT * FROM Customer";
$UpdateCustInfo = mysql_query($query_UpdateCustInfo, $Conn1) or die(mysql_error());
$row_UpdateCustInfo = mysql_fetch_assoc($UpdateCustInfo);
$totalRows_UpdateCustInfo = mysql_num_rows($UpdateCustInfo);

$company = $_POST['Company'];
$first = $_POST['FirstName'];
$last = $_POST['LastName'];
$event = $_POST['Event'];
$price = $_POST['Price'];

mysql_query("INSERT INTO CUSTOMER (Company, First Name, Last Name, Event, price) VALUES ('$Company', '$first', '$last', '$event', '$price')");
mysql_close() or die(mysql_error());

// Grab our config settings
require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/PHPdocs/phpmailer/config.php');

// Grab the FreakMailer class
require_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'].'/PHPdocs/phpmailer/MailClass.inc');

// instantiate the class
$mailer = new FreakMailer();

Cheers in advance for anyones help.
Aha - I get this error now.  ???

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /hsphere/local/home/designat/womeninbusiness.co.uk/PHPdocs/phpmailer/invoicemail.php on line 15

I checked it, please tell me I've done something daft like left out an ";"

I hope not - a sure fire way to keep my noob status!  :D



Try this...

[code]
<?php
$sql = "INSERT INTO customer (`Company`, `First Name`, `Last Name`, `Event`, `price`) VALUES ('$Company', '$first', '$last', '$event', '$price')";
$inserted = mysql_query($sql) or die ("Can't execute sql\n\n$sql\n\n" . mysql_error());

if ($inserted == true){
  echo "Insert successful\n";
}
else {
  echo "Insert failed\n";
}
?>
[/code]
