How to insert data into database using pdo in php
In this post, you will be learning how to insert data into database using pdo in php mysql.
Where we will be seeing that example of Inserting Student Data. So guys, lets get started.
Step 1: Create a table in named students in your database as follows:
CREATE TABLE `students` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL,
`fullname` varchar(191) NOT NULL,
`email` varchar(191) NOT NULL,
`phone` varchar(191) NOT NULL,
`course` varchar(191) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;
Step 2: Create a database connection in the file named dbcon.php as given below:
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$database = "database_name";
try {
$conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=$database", $username, $password);
$conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); // set the PDO error mode to exception
// echo "Connected Successfully";
} catch(PDOException $e) {
echo "Connection Failed" .$e->getMessage();
}
?>
Step 3: Create a Student Form in file named student-add.php and paste the below code:
<?php
session_start();
?>
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<link href="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.1.3/dist/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<title>Insert data into database using PDO in PHP</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8 mt-4">
<?php if(isset($_SESSION['message'])) : ?>
<h5 class="alert alert-success"><?= $_SESSION['message']; ?></h5>
<?php
unset($_SESSION['message']);
endif;
?>
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">
<h3>Insert data into database using PDO in PHP</h3>
</div>
<div class="card-body">
<form action="code.php" method="POST">
<div class="mb-3">
<label>Full Name</label>
<input type="text" name="fullname" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<label>Email</label>
<input type="text" name="email" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<label>Phone</label>
<input type="text" name="phone" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<label>Course</label>
<input type="text" name="course" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="mb-3">
<button type="submit" name="save_student_btn" class="btn btn-primary">Save Student</button>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap@5.1.3/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
After creating the form, click on the SUBMIT button to submit the form which goes to action code.php file.
Step 5: Create a code.php file and paste the below php code:
<?php
session_start();
include('dbcon.php');
if(isset($_POST['save_student_btn']))
{
$fullname = $_POST['fullname'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$course = $_POST['course'];
$query = "INSERT INTO students (fullname, email, phone, course) VALUES (:fullname, :email, :phone, :course)";
$query_run = $conn->prepare($query);
$data = [
':fullname' => $fullname,
':email' => $email,
':phone' => $phone,
':course' => $course,
];
$query_execute = $query_run->execute($data);
if($query_execute)
{
$_SESSION['message'] = "Inserted Successfully";
header('Location: student-add.php');
exit(0);
}
else
{
$_SESSION['message'] = "Not Inserted";
header('Location: student-add.php');
exit(0);
}
}
?>
Thank you.
