:S Hi I need help urgently.. I want to insert data into two mysql tables using just one form. Tried to do it through the following code below, but keep on getting horible errors when i submit. The essence is that the client has to fill all data without moving to another page after each submission.
I really need help PLease.
if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO educate (applicant_id, ae_level, school, ae_from, ae_to, Qualification, updated_since) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
GetSQLValueString($_POST['applicant_id'], "int"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['ae_level'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['school'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['ae_from'], "date"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['ae_to'], "date"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['Qualification'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['updated_since'], "date"));
$insertSQL = sprintf("Insert Into reference (applicant_id, ref_one, ref_oneCon, ref_two, ref_twoCon, updated_since) Values(%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
GetSQLValueString($_POST['applicant_id'], "int"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['ref_one'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['ref_oneCon'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['ref_two'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST[' ref_twoCon'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['updated_since'], "date"));
mysql_select_db($database_rakes, $rakes);
$Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $rakes) or die(mysql_error());
$insertGoTo = "another_job_applicant_entry";
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
$insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
}
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}With the following as the table;
<form method="post" name="form1" action="<?php echo $editFormAction; ?>">
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="3">
