[Diether]

Hi guys Good day, how to insert multiple data in the database? when i insert data that has multiple orders, only one item is inserted in the database. pls help me to put this on loop.

Heres the code i use:
 

        foreach ($_SESSION["cart_array"] as $each_items){
                $item_id = $each_items['item_id'];
                $quantity = $each_items['quantity']     ;
                $sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM product WHERE id = '$item_id'");
                        while($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)){
                                $product_name = $row['name'];
                                $price = $row['price'];
                                $total_price = $price * $quantity;
                                mysql_query("INSERT INTO customer_order(
                                        id,quantity,item_id,
                                        total_price,shipping_address,
                                        shipping_date,customer_id)
                                        VALUES ('','$quantity','$item_id','$total_price',
                                        '','',
                                        '$lastId')") or die (mysql_error());
                                        
                                }

                    }
                }
             
            }
        

 

 

[subhomoy]

you have left two blank spaces (i.e shipping_date & customer_id).. Check ur SQL query

 

 VALUES ('','$quantity','$item_id','$total_price',
'','',

either fill it up with the details or do this one to add more specifically

 

 mysql_query("INSERT INTO customer_order(id,quantity,item_id,total_price,customer_id)VALUES('','$quantity','$item_id','$total_price',
'$lastId')") or die (mysql_error());
