php - Multi select html inserting multi values into database -
i'm working on category section stories submitted website. have html select going on in html , have submitting database using codeigniter functions. submitting database, there seems small problem...the select grabbing last value selected. need have values selected entered database can pull them out @ later date.
this html using.
<select multiple class="multi" name="wgenre"> <option value="action/adventure">action/adventure</option> <option value="angst">angst</option> <option value="crime">crime</option> </select>
and have in model.
$this->title = $this->input->post('wtitle'); $this->genre = $this->input->post('wgenre'); $this->db->insert('story_tbl', $this);
now, believe problem database. set field enum, won't work because it's either 1 or other selection , need have multiples. tried text field, , it's not grabbing everything. honest i'm @ loss , in need of help. :)
i ended solving without foreach loop.
first of all, writting html select tag wrong. select multiple values have add both [] @ end of class , muti tag...like this.
<select multiple="multiple" class="multi" name="wgenre[]">
and in php has json encoded placed in database correctly...like this...
$this->genre = json_encode($this->input->post('wgenre'));
thank help! hope helps else in future! :)
