How do I retrieve data from a SQL table, modify the data and store it in another database table with multiple rows & columns and with single submit button I want insert every rows at a time I don't know how to get that hidden value and work properly with that
<?php
include"connect_database.php";
if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$amt = $_POST['total'];
if($amt > 0) {
$qry = "INSERT INTO attendance(rollno, name, year, attendance, reason) VALUES "; // Split the mysql_query
for($i=1; $i<=$amt; $i++) {
$qry .= "('".$_POST["rollno$i"]."', '".$_POST["name$i"]."', '".$_POST["year$i"]."', '".$_POST["attendance$i"]."', '".$_POST["reason$i"]."' ),"; // loop the mysql_query values to avoid more server loding time
}
$qry = substr($qry, 0, strlen($qry)-2);
$insert = mysqli_query($dbcon, $qry); // Execute the mysql_query
}
// Redirect for each cases
if($insert) {
$msg = '<script type="text/javascript">alert("added");</script>';
}
else {
$msg = '<script type="text/javascript">alert("Server Error, Kindly Try Again");</script>';
}
};
if (isset($_POST['select']))
{
$sql = "SELECT * FROM data WHERE year='" . $_POST['yr'] . "'";
$myData = mysqli_query($dbcon, $sql);
$num = mysqli_num_rows($myData);
echo "<table border=1>
<tr>
<th>Rollno</th>
<th>Name</th>
<th>Year</th>
<th>Attendance</th>
<th>reason</th>
</tr>";
for ($i=0; $i <$num; $i++)
{
$record = mysqli_fetch_array($myData);
echo "<form action=smanage.php method=post>";
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" . "<input type=text name=rollno$i value=" . $record['rollno'] . " </td>";
echo "<td>" . "<input type=text name=name$i value=" . $record['name'] . " </td>";
echo "<td>" . "<input type=text name=year$i value=" . $record['year'] . " </td>";
echo "<td> "."<select name=attendance$i >
<option value=Present >present</option>
<option value=Absent >Absent</option>
</select>"."</td>";
echo "<td>". "<textarea cols=15 rows=2 name=reason$i placeholder=Enter reason ...></textarea>" . "</td>" ;
echo "<td>" . "<input type=hidden name=total value=" . $i-1 . "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
echo"</table>";
echo "<input type=submit name=submit value=save class=Button3>";
echo "</form>";
};
mysqli_close($dbcon);
?>
