I'am trying to insert data from a form into two different tables. Here's what I'am doing:-
<?php
$mysqli= new mysqli("localhost","root","","store_records");
if($mysqli->connect_error)
die("Database connection failed ".$mysqli->connect_error);
$query = "insert into bill_details(date,invoice_no,balance) values('".$_POST['p_date']."','".$_POST['invoice_no']."','".$_POST['balance']."')";
if($mysqli->query($query))
{
$cquery="";
for ( $i=0;$i<$_POST['row_numbers'];$i++)
{
$cquery .= "insert into bill_records(item_name,qty,pack,batch,expiry,mrp,rate,vat,discount,invoice_no) values('".$_POST['item_name'][$i]."','".$_POST['qty'][$i]."','".$_POST['pack'][$i]."','".$_POST['batch'][$i]."','".$_POST['expiry'][$i]."','".$_POST['mrp'][$i]."','".$_POST['rate'][$i]."','".$_POST['vat'][$i]."','".$_POST['discount'][$i]."','".$_POST['invoice_no']."');";
}
if($mysqli->multi_query($cquery))
echo "Records Saved";
else
echo "Failed to save product records";
}
else
{
echo "Failed To save Records";
}
?>
Now, data from the first query is getting stored into bill_details table. but the array values are not getting stored. I cant figure out what am I doing wrong with my code. I wanna know how can i solve this problem and use the invoice_no as reference key for both the tables.
Here are the structure of both the database tables..
