[SOLVED] Variables not passing to database??

mikebyrne · April 7, 2008

A couple of my variables are not passing to the db and I cant see why??

They are: Brthday, Birthmonth, Bithyear, password2, name & country

The sql for db is:

CREATE TABLE `adminusers` (

`name` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`address` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`address1` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`address2` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`address3` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`address4` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`county` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`country` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`birthday` varchar(2) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`birthmonth` varchar(4) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`birthyear` varchar(4) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`zip` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`telephone` decimal(10,0) default NULL,

`email` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`username` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`password` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`password2` varchar(255) collate latin1_general_ci default NULL,

`usertype` decimal(10,0) default NULL

) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 COLLATE=latin1_general_ci;

My code is:

<?php
require_once("adminconnect.php");

$tbl_name="adminusers";

echo $_POST['name'];
echo $_POST['address'];
echo $_POST['address1'];
echo $_POST['address2'];
echo $_POST['address3'];

echo $_POST['zip'];
echo $_POST['telephone'];
echo $_POST['motelephone'];
echo $_POST['password'];
echo $_POST['password2'];
echo $_POST['username'];
echo $_POST['email'];
echo $_POST['birthdate'];
echo $_POST['birthmonth'];
echo $_POST['birthyear'];
echo $_POST['country'];
echo $_POST['sex'];

$name = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['name']));
$address = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['address']));
$address1 = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['address1']));
$address2 = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['address2']));
$address3 = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['address3']));
$county = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['county']));
$zip = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['zip']));
$telephone = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['telephone']));
$motelephone = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['motelephone']));
$email = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['email']));
$password =mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['password']));
$username = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['username']));

$user = mysql_real_escape_string(htmlspecialchars($_POST['username']));




$sql = "SELECT name FROM adminusers WHERE username ='$user'";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die("Error in SQL: ".mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);

$test = $row['name'];

$sql="INSERT INTO $tbl_name(name, address, address1, address2, address3, county, country, birthday, birthmonth, birthyear, zip, telephone, email, username, password, password2, usertype)VALUES('$name', '$address', '$address1', '$address2','$address3', '$county' , '$country','$birthday', '$birthmonth', '$birthyear','$zip', '$telephone', '$email', '$username', '$password' , '$password2', 1)";

mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error().'<br /> Query was:'.$sql);

mikebyrne · April 7, 2008

u have not assigned $Brthday, $Birthmonth, $Bithyear, $password2, $name & $country values ..checkout that...

I cant see how they are not assigned???

Cep · April 7, 2008

This line,

$sql="INSERT INTO $tbl_name(name, address, address1, address2, address3, county, country, birthday, birthmonth, birthyear, zip, telephone, email, username, password, password2, usertype)VALUES('$name', '$address', '$address1', '$address2','$address3', '$county' , '$country','$birthday', '$birthmonth', '$birthyear','$zip', '$telephone', '$email', '$username', '$password' , '$password2', 1)";

Refers to variables that you have not set, PHP cannot understand what they are.

mikebyrne · April 7, 2008

Sorry think im missing something here ???

They ALL post apart from $Brthday, $Birthmonth, $Bithyear, $password2, $name & $country

They echo on the screen too so cant see why they wont go into the db??

Cep · April 7, 2008

This, $birthday is not $_POST['birthday'] they are two separate entities.

mikebyrne · April 7, 2008

Ah ok. So what should I do to get birthday to post to the database?

Cep · April 7, 2008

You have to assign it,

$birthday = "something";

This goes for all the other variables you have not assigned.

Looking at your code they are going to be something like this,

$birthday = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['birthday']));

mikebyrne · April 7, 2008

Ive used:

$birthday = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['birthday']));

$birthmonth = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['birthmonth']));

$birthyear = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['birthyear']));

Everything posts apart from from birthday!!

New Coder · April 7, 2008

You are using birthdate further up your code which you are then refering to as birthday... Syntax??

change

$birthday = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['birthday']));

to

$birthday = mysql_real_escape_string(trim($_POST['birthdate']));

mikebyrne · April 7, 2008

Thats fixed it. Thanks alot!!
