fife Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I have a looping table with a form within the loop. see below <table width="403" border="0" cellpadding="5"> <?php $i=0; do { ?> <tr> <td width="146"><?php echo $row_rs_foods['name']; ?></td> <td width="147"><?php echo $row_rs_foods['price']; ?></td> <td width="82"> <form action="" method="post"> <input name="idfood" type="hidden" value="<?php echo $row_rs_foods['idfoods']; ?>" /> <input name="adddish<?php echo $i;?>" type="submit" value="Add Meal" /> </form> </td> </tr> <?php $i++; } while ($row_rs_fooditem = mysql_fetch_assoc($rs_fooditem)); ?> </table> The query that inserts the form is as below <?php if(isset($_POST['adddish'])) { $food = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['idfood']); $menu = $_GET['menu']; $course = $_GET['course']; $insertq = mysql_query("INSERT INTO foodlink (idmenu, idfood, course) VALUES ('$menu', '$food', '$course')") or die(mysql_error()); $url = "add-existing-foods.php"; header("Location: $url"); } ?> Now my submit button increments each time by 1 but I dont understand how to make the if(isset($_POST['adddish'])) { have the right number so the right food is inserted each time. Can someone please help? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/265198-looping-form-insert-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
