tgribble Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 hello. i have an issue where the data stored with an image is not saving to a mysql table. the image data is ok, just not the selections from the dropdown lists. here is the code <?php include ('connect.php'); // Insert any new image into database if(isset($_POST['xsubmit']) && $_FILES['imagefile']['name'] != "") { $fileName = $_FILES['imagefile']['name']; $fileSize = $_FILES['imagefile']['size']; $fileType = $_FILES['imagefile']['type']; $content = addslashes (file_get_contents($_FILES['imagefile']['tmp_name'])); $jeweltype = $_POST['jeweltype']; $jewelsize = $_POST['jewelsize_in']; $jewelcolour = $_POST['jewelcolour_in']; $jewelmaterial = $_POST['jewelmaterial_in']; $jewelgender = $_POST['jewelgender_in']; if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $fileName = addslashes($fileName); } // Checking file size if ($fileSize < 150000) { mysql_query ("INSERT into jewel_images (name,size,type,content,jeweltype,jewelsize,jewelcolour,jewelmaterial,jewelgender) " . "values ('$fileName','$fileSize','$fileType','$content','$jeweltype','$jewelsize','$jewelcolour','$jewelmaterial','$jewelgender')"); } else { $err = "The Image file to too large!"; } } // Find out about latest image $gotten = mysql_query("select * from jewel_images order by row_id desc"); $row = mysql_fetch_assoc($gotten); $bytes = $row['content']; // If this is the image request, send out the image if ($_REQUEST['pic'] == 1) { header("Content-type: $row[type];"); print $bytes; } ?> <html> <head> <title>Upload an image to a database</title> </head> <body> <font color="#FF3333"><?php echo $err ?></font> <table> <form name="Upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post"> <tr> <td>Upload <input type="file" name="imagefile"><br /> Jewelery Type: <select> <?php $sql="SELECT jeweltype FROM jeweltypes"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ ?> <option value ="jeweltype" ><?php echo $data['jeweltype'] ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <br /> Jewelery Size: <select> <?php $sql="SELECT jewelsize FROM jewelsizes"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ ?> <option value ="jewelsize" ><?php echo $data['jewelsize'] ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <br /> Jewelery Colour: <select> <?php $sql="SELECT jewelcolour FROM jewelcolours"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ ?> <option value ="jewelcolour_in" ><?php echo $data['jewelcolour'] ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <br /> Jewelery Material: <select> <?php $sql="SELECT jewelmaterial FROM jewelmaterials"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ ?> <option value ="jewelmaterial_in" ><?php echo $data['jewelmaterial'] ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <br /> Jewelery Gender: <select> <?php $sql="SELECT jewelgender FROM jewelgenders"; $result =mysql_query($sql); while ($data=mysql_fetch_assoc($result)){ ?> <option value ="jewelgender_in" ><?php echo $data['jewelgender'] ?></option> <?php } ?> </select> <br /> <input type="submit" name="xsubmit" value="Upload"> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Latest Image</td> </tr> <tr> <td><img src="?pic=1"></td> </tr> </form> </table> </body> </html> ============================================== here is the query =============================================== <html> <head><title>Your Page Title</title></head> <body> <?php $database="josh_jewel"; mysql_connect ("localhost", "xxxxxxxxx", "yyyyyyyyyyyy"); @mysql_select_db($database) or die( "Unable to select database"); $result = mysql_query( "SELECT jewelcolour FROM jewel_images" ) or die("SELECT Error: ".mysql_error()); $num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result); print "There are $num_rows records.<P>"; print "<table width=400 border=1>\n"; while ($get_info = mysql_fetch_row($result)){ print "<tr>\n"; foreach ($get_info as $field) print "\t<td><font face=arial size=1/>$field</font></td>\n"; print "</tr>\n"; } print "</table>\n"; ?> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/236177-populating-dropdown-lists-with-mysql-then-submitting-form-to-new-table/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
wigwambam Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 The html syntax is incorrect. You should name the selects as such: <select name="jeweltype"> The options should be populated with values, for example: <option value="ring">ring</option> <option value="bracelet">bracelet</option> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/236177-populating-dropdown-lists-with-mysql-then-submitting-form-to-new-table/#findComment-1214444 Share on other sites More sharing options...
