I am doing a school project.
Here is a link to the project http://www.dsu-class.com/zito82/lab10/
I need to use the MVC model to code a PHP application. I've gotten all the steps done except for one. I was required to add an Update input button to the list of customers. From this input button I launch into the update form. When I submit this form it is supposed to update the customer data.
I am having two problems. I created the list of customers via a foreach loop and that assigns a customerID to each update button however once I pass through to the form I cannot pull the customerID to pass through with the form.
The second problem is that my form does not update the MYSQL database.
To be clear, I have to follow this MVC Structure. It would be much easier for me to build php files instead of functions but that is how I am supposed to do this.
Here is my code. I have the Controller listed first, the Model(s) second, and the view last.
<?php
require('../model/database.php');
require('../model/customer-db.php');
if (isset($_POST['action'])) {
$action = $_POST['action'];
} else if (isset($_GET['action'])) {
$action = $_GET['action'];
} else {
$action = 'display_customers';
}
if ($action == 'display_customers') {
$customers = get_customers();
include '../view/customer-list.php';
}
else if ($action == 'view_customerData') {
$customerID = $_GET['customerID'];
view_customerData($customerID);
include '../view/customer-information.php';
}
else if ($action == 'update_customer') {
$customerID = $_POST['customerID']; $firstName = $_POST['firstName']; $lastName = $_POST['lastName'];
$address = $_POST['address']; $city = $_POST['city']; $state = $_POST['state']; $postalCode = $_POST['postalCode'];
$countryCode = $_POST['countryCode']; $phone = $_POST['phone']; $email = $_POST['email'];
update_customer($customerID, $firstName, $lastName, $address, $city, $state, $postalCode, $countryCode, $phone, $email);
$customers = get_customers();
include '../view/customer-list.php';
}
else if ($action == 'delete_customer') {
$customerID = $_POST['customerID'];
delete_customer($customerID);
$customers = get_customers();
include '../view/customer-list.php';
}
else if ($action == 'under-construction') {
include('../under-construction.php');
} else
?>
Model containing my function calls for the Controller
<?php
require_once('database.php');
function get_customers() {
global $db;
$query = "SELECT * FROM customers
ORDER BY lastName";
$customers = $db->query($query);
return $customers;
}
function delete_customer($customerID) {
global $db;
$query = "DELETE FROM customers
WHERE customerID = '$customerID'";
$db->exec($query);
}
function view_customerData ($customerID) {
global $db;
$query = "SELECT * FROM customers
WHERE customerID = '$customerID'";
$customerData = $db->query($query);
$customerData = $customerData->fetch();
return $customerData;
}
function update_customer($customerID, $firstName, $lastName, $address, $city, $state, $postalCode, $countryCode, $phone, $email) {
global $db;
$query = "UPDATE customers
SET
firstName = '$firstName', lastName = '$lastName', address = '$address', city = '$city', state = '$state',
postalCode = '$postalCode', countryCode = '$countryCode', phone = '$phone', email = '$email'
WHERE customerID = '$customerID' ";
$db->exec($query);
}
?>
