Understand with Example

The Tutorial illustrate an example from 'PHP SQL Insertion'. To understand and grasp the example we create a table 'Stu' that create the required fields and datatypes respectively. The Table 'stu' has a Primary Key ID.

Create Table Stu:

CREATE TABLE `stu` (                     
          `id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,  
          `name` varbinary(10) default NULL,     
          `class` int(11) default '12',          
          PRIMARY KEY  (`id`)                    
        )

phpsqlinsertion.php:

The PHP SQL insertion is saved with .php extension. The server side scripting include a local host, user, password and name of the database to which records are added. To execute the queries, the connection would be built between the front-end and MySQL in the backend. Once your connection is built successfully, you can add the records to the database. The die function( ) illustrate  that connection could not established and exists from the current script.

<?php
$host = "localhost";
$user = "root";
$password = "root";
$database = "komal";
$connection = mysql_connect($host,$user,$password) 
or die("Could not connect: ".mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($database,$connection) 
or die("Error in selecting the database:".mysql_error());
$sql="insert into stu(name,class) values('komal',12)";
echo "Insertion Successful ...";

echo "</table>";
mysql_close($connection);
?>

Output

Insertion Successful ...
