PHP/MySQL multiple checkbox insert

Hi All,
I am creating an order samples page where people can select up to 3 samples.
The selected checkboxes will go into a database.
How do I insert the selected checkboxes values into a database? I only managed to insert 1 value.
Here are the checkboxes:
                         <label><input type="checkbox" name="samples_" value="sample1" id="samples_1">sample1</label>
                         <label><input type="checkbox" name="samples_" value="sample2" id="samples_2">sample2</label>
                          <label><input type="checkbox" name="samples_" value="sample3" id="samples_3">sample3</label>
                          <label><input type="checkbox" name="samples_" value="sample4" id="samples_4">sample4</label>
                          <label><input type="checkbox" name="samples_" value="sample5" id="samples_5">sample5</label>
                          <label><input type="checkbox" name="samples_" value="sample6" id="samples_6">sample6</label>
Any help or advice is much appreciated
Thanks

Multiple Checkbox Insert Handling

Every so often, I need to refresh my knowledge regarding how to handle multiple check box selections, and how they get handled on an action page to insert correctly in a DB.
In a helpdesk application, the admin assigns projects to technicians. He may assign one project to several technicians.
The first action page inserts the data from the form into the DB with time and date stamps, due dates, etc.
Here is where the selected checkboxes do not get passed.
The second action page depends on the fist, populating a junction table using:
<cfquery name="get_project_ID" datasource="#Request.BaseDSN#">
   SELECT MAX (project_ID) as lastID
   FROM main_projects
</cfquery>
    <cfloop index="i" list="#tech_ID#">
        <cfquery name="TheQuery" datasource="#Request.BaseDSN#">
            INSERT
            INTO     junction_project_tech
                    (junc_tech_ID, junc_project_ID)
            VALUES     (
                        <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer" value="#i#">,
                        #get_project_ID.lastID#
        </cfquery>
    </cfloop>
Any help would be greatly appriciated-

[php+mysql] how to insert 3 records at once and print out all 3 records?

Hi all,
I have to create a serie of pages that allow the user to:
1- Insert 3 records in a mysql db at once
2- click NEXT
3- viewverify//print the data that he has entered (all 3
records)
4- click PRINT
5- click FINISH
then, restart from 1
What is the best way to do this?
TIA for any suggestion.
tony

The best way is usually to use a stored procedure. Do you
know if the version of MySQL you are using supports sprocs?

Updating to 10.4.11 killed my PHP/MYSQL connections

Hi all - I use Dreamweaver CS3 for web development, and have been using some very simple PHP/MYSQL Select and Inserts. Everything was working fabulously up until this morning, when I updated to 10.4.11 (Macbook Pro, CoreDuo). As soon as I updated, I get a 'No Database Selected' message in Safari, Firefox and IE. I can see the database and work with it in DWeaver, just can't get it to go live in browsers.
I'm running PHP 5.2.4, MYSQL 5.1.8 and whatever version of Apache is bundled in OS X (I think it's 1.x - but can't find how to get that number!)
Just for record, I have stopped/restarted Personal Web Sharing, Personal File Sharing, OS X, MYSQL to just check whether something wasn't working there.
I'm about to close out, zap the PRAM and then come back in.
Any ideas?
Vince

Thanks - A couple of additional points. This is OS X 10.4.11, not OS X Server, so I had installed MYSQL and PHP as fresh installations. MYSQL has not changed since I installed and is running fine through direct client (Navicat).
For PHP I was running 4 and it had been running fine. When the update to OSX came through, PHP 4 didn't work - no change had been made to any configuration file that was working already. These are the httpd.conf instructions I had followed to set-up PHP 4:
+1 Launch Terminal from /Applications/Utilities.+
+2 Open the Apache configuration file and edit the UNIX shell prompt:+
+sudo pico /etc/httpd/httpd.conf+
+3 When prompted for a password, enter the Mac OS X administrator account password.+
+4 Uncomment the following lines:+
+LoadModule php4_module libexec/httpd/libphp4.so+
+AddModule mod_php4.c+
+5 Add the following lines (add these lines above: AddType application/x-tar .tgz):+
+AddType application/x-httpd-php .php+
+AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps+
+Note: All the commands for the pico editor display on the screen and you can start any commands with the Control key. Use the arrow keys to move around. Pico is a text editor, mostly for UNIX users to use at the UNIX command line. The pico text editor resides in /usr/bin/ directory.+
+6 Add a new index page for PHP (index.php) so that the web server will recognize it as the first page to load:+
+<IfModule mod_dir.c>+
+DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.htm+
</IfModule>
+7 Save the httpd.conf file by pressing ^X (control & x keys). When the screen asks "Save Modified buffer?", press "Y". When prompted for "File Name to write : httpd.conf", press Return once to accept it. This will return you to the UNIX shell prompt.+
When PHP 4 stopped working, I took the decision to upgrade to 5 and then fix the breakdown (by now, I was convinced it was an Apache change (nothing in config had changed at all). So, upgraded to PHP 5 and, to do so, had to reverse the directions above. Since then, I've tried reenabling the above, replacing with PHP5 wherever PHP4 appears, all to no avail (in fact, it just froze the Personal Web Sharing that turns Apache on/off).
Right now, running the phpinfo check detailed above tells me the PHP 5 is successfully installed and running. The text from the test copied here:

I don't know if any of this helps, but it's what I find. From my online troubleshooting and reading, I believe all of the above looks right and that things should work. So, I'm still left with an informed gut decision that something in the set-up of Apache changed (location in file structure, configuration file, etc.) Could it be looking at a second copy of httpd.conf somewhere else? That would seem to make sense - however I haven't managed to turn up how to assess which version of Apache is loaded (I think 1.3) or where it's located.
If anyone can confirm what PHP5 code should be included in httpd.conf given the above, that would be a great next step.
Thanks for all your assistance!

Dynamic checkbox - displaying from mysql database and inserting after selection

I have a many to many relationship between Students and Modules and I created another table called StudentModules which will hold StudentID and ModuleID. Since it is a many to many, one students can study many modules..
I am trying to create a page where the user will select the modules he or she will be taking from a web page with checkboxes (The Modules will be coming from the Modules table). The selection will then be inserted into StudentModules. Can anyone guide me to a tutorial which can help me? I can pick up the StudentID either from session or url variable but having problems with checkboxes. I am using php mysql and Dreamweaver.

Hi Bregent,
Thanks for your suggestions. This is what I have for the moment.
http://p4uluv.brinkster.net/cfsl/moduleselection.php
and the piece of coding for my checkbox are:
<?php do { ?>
      <input name="checks" type="checkbox" id="checks" value="<?php echo $row_rsModules['ModulesID']; ?>" <?php if (!(strcmp($row_rsModules['ModulesID'],"True"))) {echo "checked=\"checked\"";} ?>>
      <label for="checks"><?php echo $row_rsModules['ModulesName']; ?></label>
      <?php } while ($row_rsModules = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsModules)); ?>
I am hoping once it is checked, it will pick up the ModulesID. I am now in the process of creating another page that will pick up the moduleID..

PHP/MYSQL Insert code

I am new to php/MYSQL but I am trying to learn. I built an
insert page using DW8. I was looking back over the code trying to
figure it out. Is it just me or does dreamweaver an a bunch of junk
to there code to do a simple insert from 4 form fields.
Can anyone explain what DW is doing since I am now dumber for
having looked at it.

No, it's not a bunch of junk. It's filtering the input to
make sure that
things are inserted correctly into your database.

This function filters the form content to prepare it for
insertion in
the database.

$theDefinedValue = "",
> $theNotDefinedValue = "")
This sets the action value of the form tag, including any
query string.
> $editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
> if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
> $editFormAction .= "?" .
htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);

This builds the SQL query and inserts the form content into
the database.

This redirects the page after the database query has
finished.

This is unrelated to the insert. It's a recordset that
retrieves
everything from the reviews table of your database.

"Normally, you canot use mysql_real_escape_string without connection to database"
That is not true at all. Try running the following script.
<?php
if ($_POST['submit']){
$x1=$_POST['test1'];
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
if (!is_array($value)){
$_POST[$key] = mysql_real_escape_string($value);
extract($_POST);
echo "The text after 'becomes' should be escaped (\')<br/>";
echo "$x1 becomes $test1<br/>";
?>
<hr/>
<form action="#" method="post" />
Enter some text, including an apostrophe: <input name="test1" type="text"><br/>
    <p><input name="submit" value="submit" type="submit"/>
</form>

Inserting multiple checkboxes into a table cell

Hi all, new to Livecycle so I could use a little advice.
I'm trying to insert multiple checkboxes into a single table cell, but as far as I can tell that seems impossible as one checkbox fills the entire cell. Now how do I go about splitting the table cell into 2 rows so that I can insert both of the checkboxes?
I've also got to add a button to create new rows for the table on click so I don't know if that will factor into the answer.
|        Header               |           Header2             |           Header3           |
|                                  |                                      |__________________|
|                                  |                                      |                                    |
I hope this crappy ascii drawing comes out right, but that's what I need to happen.
Thanks!

Multiple record insert query

I realise that this is probably a simple question and I'm just looking for some general pointers. I've already looked through these forums and on the web so don't all jump down my throat at once!
If I want to insert multiple records into a Mysql database/table, can I do it through Dreamweaver Insert Record function and using a repeat region, or can multiple inserts only be done through programming the PHP/Mysql side of things?
I need to insert a row for each player in a football match, and need to input starting 11, subs, man of the match etc with checkboxes, so have binded the checkboxes to the table and would like to use a repeat region if this is poss? Or will I have to insert a separate row of checkboxes for each player?
Any advice much appreciated
Cheers all
Bez

I figured out the method to insert record with auto increment primary key. I listed the code block below:
char m_SeqNamePositions[32] = "MyPositions";
DbSequence *m_pSeqPositions;
m_pDBPositions = new Db(NULL, 0);
          m_pDBPositions->open(NULL, pszFileName, szFileName, DB_BTREE, DB_CREATE, 0);          // 无数据文件
          m_pSeqPositions = new DbSequence(m_pDBPositions, 0);
          Dbt key((void *)m_SeqNamePositions, (u_int32_t)strlen(m_SeqNamePositions));
          m_pSeqPositions->open(NULL, &key, DB_CREATE);
db_seq_t SeqNum;
     m_pSeqPositions->get(0, 1, &SeqNum, 0);
     Dbt key((void *)&SeqNum, (u_int32_t)sizeof(SeqNum));
     Dbt data(pRecord, sizeof(*pRecord));
     return m_pDBPositions->put(NULL, &key, &data, DB_NOOVERWRITE);
m_pSeqPositions->close(0);
          m_pDBPositions->close(0);
delete m_pSeqPositions;
delete m_pDBPositions;
          m_pDBPositions = NULL;

PHP/MySql Error Message

I've posted this before and didn't get the answer that I need, probably because I didn't post all of my codes. I am using PHP/MySql. I created a website that has several forms. When I process three of the forms, I get the error messages below:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'Condition, Length, Color, City, `State`, Email, Photo) VALUES ('29', '4', 'Used'' at line 1.
Below I am posting the codes. Hopefully, this time I posted everything that I should have so that I can get assistance.

Hi David,
I did as you recommended. For good measure, I even changed the case of the letters to make sure that they coincide with exactly what's in the database. I still kept getting the same error message. So I deleted the recordset and attempted to recreate it. When I attempted to recreate the record set, I got the following error message: "RangeError: invalid array length". My codes are listed below:

Football/soccer results grid advice php/mysql

I need to create the above from my database, and I am not sure how to go about it.
Basically this calculates all the goals scored against another team. If team 1 (column) is the same as team 1 (row) an "x" is put in place as team 1 cannot play itself
I have added my database structure

Can't connect PHP/MySQL 404 error

Wow, the learning curve is killing me. Yet another challenge. I'm using Dreamweaver CC and this tutorial http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setup_php.html
I'm at this step:
Open comments.php. You must have a PHP page open in the Document window to create a MySQL connection.
In the Databases panel (choose Window > Databases), click the Plus button on the panel and select MySQL Connection.The MySQL Connection dialog box appears.
Type connTest as the connection name.
For the MySQL Server, type localhost.If you are using the MAMP default ports on a Mac, use localhost:8889.
For the User Name, type phptestuser.
Type the password you chose for the phptestuser account in the Password field.
For the Database, type php_test.Note: You don't need to precede the underscore with a backslash here. It was inserted by phpMyAdmin in the previous section (see Figure 20) only because phpMyAdmin uses a query that permits wildcard characters.
Click Test.Dreamweaver attempts to connect to the database. If the connection fails, do the following:
Double-check the server name, user name, and password.
Check the settings for the folder Dreamweaver uses to process dynamic pages (see Specifying a Testing Server for Dreamweaver).
Verify that the web and MySQL servers are both running.
Temporarily disable any firewall or security program. If the connection works, you need to configure the security program to permit communication between Dreamweaver and MySQL.
Click OK. The new connection appears in the Databases panel.
Expand the connTest connection, and then expand the Tables branch. You'll see the comments table in the database, which you can expand to reveal the details of the table columns (see Figure 23).
As far as I can tell I have followed this tutorial to the letter.
As far as I can tell, XAMPP/php mySQL are all running fine, the files are in the correct place and everything should be working. However when I hit test I get a 404 error. (Same error when I hit the select button.)
The suggested problems on the 404 message are:
1. There is no testing server running on the server machine.
Pretty sure the testing server is running. Is there any way to test this, other than to note that xampp is definitely running right now and that I can log into phpMYadmin no problem?
2. The testing server specified for this site does not map to the http://localhost/php_test/_MMServerScripts/MMHTTPDB.php URL Verify that the URL Prefix maps to the root of the site.
Ummm...I'm pretty sure I put things where I was told to put them in the tutorial, but I'm lost at this point where I should verify what. A clue here? The files are where they are supposed to be, but maybe I entered something wrong? Except...I'm not sure what that could be or where to find it. Whatever IT is.
Everything in local files is looking good.
Thanks for your help!
PS: Extra points to anyone who figures out how to make copy/pasteable error messages! These buggers are the bane of my life!

Bgupta, you rock!
I hope you have copied the "mysql.php" and "MMHTTPDB.php" files from "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC\locale\Configuration\Connections\Scripts\PHP_MySQL\_mmDBScripts" to "C:\xampp\htdocs\phptest\_mmServerScripts"
This was EXACTLY the problem. I checked the tutorial and I couldn't even find where the tutorial said to do this. (If I missed it, let me know where in the tutorial it was, please.)
Fixed!

How can I use multiple row insert or update into DB in JSP?

Hi all,
pls help for my question.
"How can I use multiple rows insert or update into DB in JSP?"
I mean I will insert or update the multiple records like grid component. All the data I enter will go into the DB.
With thanks,

That isn't true. Different SQL databases have
different capabilities and use different syntax, That's true - every database has its own quirks and extensions. No disagreement there. But they all follow ANSI SQL for CRUD operations. Since the OP said they wanted to do INSERTs and UPDATEs in batches, I assumed that ANSI SQL was sufficient.
I'd argue that it's best to use ANSI SQL as much as possible, especially if you want your JDBC code to be portable between databases.
and there are also a lot of different ways of talking to
SQL databases that are possible in JSP, from using
plain old java.sql.* in scriptlets to using the
jstlsql taglib. I've done maintenance on both, and
they are as different as night and day.Right, because you don't maintain JSP and Java classes the same way. No news there. Both java.sql and JSTL sql taglib are both based on SQL and JDBC. Same difference, except that one uses tags and the other doesn't. Both are Java JDBC code in the end.
Well, sure. As long as you only want to update rows
with the same value in column 2. I had the impression
he wanted to update a whole table. If he only meant
update all rows with the same value in a given column
with the same value, that's trivial. All updates do
that. But as far as I know there's know way to update
more than one row where the values are different.I used this as an example to demonstrate that it's possible to UPDATE more than one row at a time. If I have 1,000 rows, and each one is a separate UPDATE statement that's unique from all the others, I guess I'd have to write 1,000 UPDATE statements. It's possible to have them all either succeed or fail as a single unit of work. I'm pointing out transaction, because they weren't coming up in the discussion.
Unless you're using MySQL, for instance. I only have
experience with MySQL and M$ SQL Server, so I don't
know what PostgreSQL, Oracle, Sybase, DB2 and all the
rest are capable of, but I know for sure that MySQL
can insert multiple rows while SQL Server can't (or at
least I've never seen the syntax for doing it if it
does).Right, but this syntax seems to be specific to MySQL The moment you use it, you're locked into MySQL. There are other ways to accomplish the same thing with ANSI SQL.
Don't assume that all SQL databases are the same.
They're not, and it can really screw you up badly if
you assume you can deploy a project you've developed
with one database in an environment where you have to
use a different one. Even different versions of the
same database can have huge differences. I recommend
you get a copy of the O'Reilly book, SQL in a
Nutshell. It covers the most common DBMSes and does a
good job of pointing out the differences.Yes, I understand that.
It's funny that you're telling me not to assume that all SQL databases are the same. You're the one who's proposing that the OP use a MySQL-specific extension.
I haven't looked at the MySQL docs to find out how the syntax you're suggesting works. What if one value set INSERT succeeds and the next one fails? Does MySQL roll back the successful INSERT? Is the unit of work under the JDBC driver's control with autoCommit?
The OP is free to follow your suggestion. I'm pointing out that there are transactions for units of work and ANSI SQL ways to accomplish the same thing.

Login failure (cannot modify header) PHP/MySQL

I have a login form 100% Dreamweaver8 built using PHP/MySQL.
After logging in it fails to goto the $MM_redirectLoginSuccess page
(index.php). I did not have this issue prior to the 8.02 update. I
designed it the same way as I had before the 8.02 update. I have
checked multiple times for whitespace before and after the PHP open
and close tags in Dreamweaver and other text editors.
Below is what info is needed I hope.
Error

$MM_redirectLoginSuccess = $_SESSION['PrevUrl'];

I take it you have an include file as well on the page, to
reference the
database? Check in there for whitespace.
