Adapting an answer from here to try and pass an array as the parameter for a WHERE clause in MySQL. Syntax seems okay but I'm just getting null back form the corresponding JSON. I think understand what it is supposed to do, but not enough that I can work out where it could be going wrong. The code for the function is;
public function getTheseModulesById($moduleids) {
require_once 'include/Config.php';
$con = mysqli_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PASSWORD);
// Check connection
if (!$con)
{
die("Connection error: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}
// selecting database
mysqli_select_db($con, DB_DATABASE) or die(mysqli_connect_error());
$in = join(',', array_fill(0, count($moduleids), '?'));
$select = "SELECT * FROM modules WHERE id IN ($in)";
$statement = $con->prepare($select);
$statement->bind_param(str_repeat('i', count($moduleids)), ...$moduleids);
$statement->execute();
$result = $statement->get_result();
$arr = array();
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$arr[] = $row;
}
mysqli_close($con);
return $arr;
}
And the code outwith the function calling it looks like;
$id = $_POST['id'];
$player = $db->getPlayerDetails($id);
if ($player != false) {
$pid = $player["id"];
$moduleids = $db->getModulesByPlayerId($pid); //this one is okay
$modules = $db->getTheseModulesById($moduleids); //problem here
$response["player"]["id"] = $pid;
$response["player"]["fname"] = $player["fname"];
$response["player"]["sname"] = $player["sname"];
$response["modules"] = $modules;
echo json_encode($response);
[EDIT] I should say, the moduleids are strings.
