Example:
Try out following example to insert record into staff table.<?php
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = 'rootpassword';
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
if(! $conn )
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
$sql = 'INSERT INTO employee '.
'(name, address, salary, date) '.
mysql_select_db('test_db');
$retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn );
if(! $retval )
{
die('Could not enter data: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo "Entered data successfully\n";
mysql_close($conn);
?>
|
While doing data insert its best practice to use function get_magic_quotes_gpc() to check if current configuration for magic quote is set or not. If this function returns false then use function addslashes() to add slashes before quotes.
Example:
Try out this example by putting this code into add_employee.php, this will take input using HTML Form and then it will create records into database.<html>
<head>
<title>New Record in MySQL Database</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
if(isset($_POST['add']))
{
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = 'rootpassword';
$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass);
if(! $conn )
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
if(! get_magic_quotes_gpc() )
{
$name = addslashes ($_POST['name']);
$address = addslashes ($_POST['address']);
}
else
{
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
}
$salary = $_POST['salary'];
$sql = "INSERT INTO employee ".
"(name, address, salary, date) ".
"VALUES('$name','$address','salary', NOW())";
mysql_select_db('test_db');
$retval = mysql_query( $sql, $conn );
if(! $retval )
{
die('Could not enter data: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo "Entered data successfully\n";
mysql_close($conn);
}
else
{
?>
<form method="post" action="<?php $_PHP_SELF ?>">
<table width="400" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="2">
<tr>
<td width="100">Employee Name</td>
