OK, let me start off by saying im an amateur, so all your help is really appreciated.
OK, I have a form, called 'skills.php' and on this form, you enter the following fields 'Skills_ID, Employee_ID, First_name, Last_name and Skill'. I have used java so when you select employee_ID, the name fields change to what employee that is (linked to employee table).
HOWEVER, since i have added this function, i can not save my form data into my database. Maby i accidently deleted a line of code when implementing the java function. Can someone help me figure it out? below is my form 'Skill.php':
<html>
<?php
// Connecting to database
$pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=hrmwaitrose;charset=utf8", "root", "");
?>
<html>
<head>
<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" href="style.css"/>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script> <!-- Online Jquery -->
<title>Skill</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="content">
<h1 align="center">Add Employee Skill</h1>
<form action="insertskill.php" method="post">
<div>
<p>
Skill ID:
<input type="text" name="Training_ID">
</p>
<p>
Employee ID:
<select id="Employee_ID">
<option value="">Select one</option>
<?php
$st = $pdo->prepare("SELECT Employee_ID FROM Employee");
$st->execute();
$rows = $st->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
foreach ($rows as $row) {
?><option value="<?php echo $row ['Employee_ID']; ?>"><?php echo $row ['Employee_ID']; ?></option><?php
}
?>
</select>
<p>
First name:
<input type="text" name="First_name" id="First_name">
</p>
<p>
Last name:
<input type="text" name="Last_name" id="Last_name">
</p>
<p>
<p>Skill: <select name="Skill">
<option value="">Select...</option>
<option value="Checkouts">Checkouts</option>
<option value="Fresh goods">Fresh goods</option>
<option value="Dry goods">Dry goods</option>
<option value="Fruit & Veg">Fruit & Veg</option>
<option value="Operations">Operations</option>
</select>
</p>
<input type="submit">
<INPUT Type="BUTTON" VALUE="Back" ONCLICK="window.location.href='index.html'">
</form>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function() { // This code will be executed when DOM is ready
$('#Employee_ID').change(function() {
var $self = $(this); // jQuery object with the select inside
$.post("insertskill.php", { Employee_ID : $self.val()}, function(json) {
if (json && json.status) {
$('#First_name').val(json.name);
$('#Last_name').val(json.lastname);
}
})
});
})
</script>
</body>
</html>
And here is the code used when the submit button is pressed 'insertskill.php':
<?php
$pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=hrmwaitrose;charset=utf8", "root", "");
header("Content-Type:application/json; Charset=utf-8");
$st = $pdo->prepare("SELECT First_name, Last_name FROM Employee WHERE Employee_ID = :employee_id");
$st->execute(array ('employee_id' => $_POST['Employee_ID']));
$data = $st->fetch(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
echo json_encode(array ('status' => true, 'name' => $data ['First_name'], 'lastname' => $data ['Last_name']));
?>
Just by looking at this code imn pretty sure i might of accidently deleted the coding to insert it into database, HOWEVER i dont know how to fix it :( can someone help? much appreciated! Thanks in advance
