Hi,
I am developing and PHP MySQL application. I have a page which displays records from a MySQL query. each record has a corresponding check box. the user then checks the check boxes they require and clicks next. On clicking next I want the selected rows to be inserted into another table with a common ID.
The concept is similar to that of an order process. slect products and all the products are inserted into an orders table with a common order number.
I am a novice PHP and MySQL guy so I am aware that my code is not 100%. If you could assist in assigning one common ID that would be appreciated.
My Code is currently:
<?php
mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password")or die("cannot connect");
mysql_select_db("databasename")or die("cannot select DB");
$sql="SELECT `crtd dept`,`customer`,`case no`,`gross mass` from despgoods_alldetails where transporttypename= 'localpmb'";
$result=mysql_query($sql);
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
?>
<table border=1>
<tr>
<td>
<form name="form1" method="post">
<table>
<tr>
<td>#</td>
<td>Dispatch Area</td>
<td>Customer</td>
<td>Case Number</td>
<td>Weight</td>
</tr>
<?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
?>
<tr>
<td><input type="checkbox" name=check[] value="<?php echo $rows['case no']; ?>"></td>
<td><?php echo $rows['crtd dept']; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $rows['customer']; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $rows['case no']; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $rows['gross mass']; ?></td>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
<tr>
<td colspan=3><input name="Next" type="submit" id="Next" value="Next"></td>
</tr>
<?php
$check=$_POST['check'];
if($_REQUEST['Next']=='Next'){
{
$sql="INSERT INTO loaddetails (dispatcharea,Customer, casenumber, weight,LOCStatus)
SELECT `crtd dept`,Customer,`case no`,`gross mass`,'in Load Creation'
FROM despgoods_alldetails WHERE `Case No` = '$val'";
foreach($check as $key=>$value)
{
$sql="INSERT INTO loaddetails (dispatcharea,Customer, casenumber, weight,LOCStatus)
SELECT `crtd dept`,Customer,`case no`,`gross mass`,'in Load Creation'
FROM despgoods_alldetails WHERE `Case No` = '$value'";
$final=mysql_query($sql);
if($final)
{
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0;URL=planlocalpmbstep2.php\">";
} }
}
}
// Check if delete button active, start this
// if successful redirect to php.php
mysql_close();
?>
</table>
</form>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
Thanks for the help,
Ryan
