So I have managed to sort out my connection with XAMPP and sql server in my previous question. I am sorry I am new to programming and working and studying at the same time so most of this I have to self teach with very little guidance.
My next question is when I type in data, for example, my email on the webpage I am creating, it doesn't display on phpMyAdmin? Is there some sort of connection I am missing or something I'm not understanding?
I have created a database called maxipakdb, and within that, I created a table to show data called maxipaktable in phpMyAdmin.
My code is shown below.
<?php
/* Database config */
$db_host = 'localhost';
$db_user = 'root';
$db_pass = '';
$db_database = 'maxipakdb';
/* End config */
$mysqli = new mysqli($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass, $db_database);
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {printf("Connect failed: %s
", mysqli_connect_error());}
$email = $_POST['email'];
// Perform queries
mysqli_query("INSERT INTO maxipaktable (`id`,`email`)
VALUES (NULL,'&email')");
header('Location: success.php');
echo $email;
?>
