-- Leave a Comment
Hello There Here is a simple PHP Program to connect with MySQL database. Create a Table in the database and insert data into the database through the form.

University: Pokhara University

Here is a connect.php file. We need Server, Database Name, Username and Password for that database.
new mysqli(server, username,password,database)
Will establish a database connection.

<?php
$server = "localhost";
$username ="test2";
$password ="test2";
$dbname ="test2";
$conn =new mysqli($server,$username,$password,$dbname);
if ($conn->connect_error)
{
  die("connection error " .$conn->connect_error);
}

 ?>

Here is createdb.php Which will create a table Named info with element name and email.
Here we save the SQL query in variable sql then run it in the Connection made above as
$conn -> query($sql)

<?php
include "connect.php";
$sql ="CREATE TABLE info(
  id INT(6) AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
  name VARCHAR(60) NOT NULL,
  email VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL)";
$conn-> query($sql);
 ?>

Finally we are here in index.html, Here is a form with action test2.php. Whatever we send through this form will be send to test2.php (that is what action for)

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title></title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <form class="" action="test2.php" method="post">
      Name: <input type="text" name="name" value="name"/><br>
      Email: <input type="email" name="email" value="email"/><br>
      <input type="submit" name="" value="send">

    </form>
  </body>
</html>

And here is test2.php which will get the values passed from the form and store them in the Database.
$_POST["name"] will get the value from the form with name name. The SQL query

INSERT INTO info(name, email) VALUES ('$name','$email')
Will insert the value of name and email to the table info and element name and email.

$conn-> query($sql);
 ?>
