Codeigniter Inserting Multidimensional Array as rows in MySQL
- by RisingSun
Please Refer to this question I asked
Codeigniter Insert Multiple Rows in SQL
To restate
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="user[0][name]" value=""></td>
<td><input type="text" name="user[0][address]" value=""><br></td>
<td><input type="text" name="user[0][age]" value=""></td>
<td><input type="text" name="user[0][email]" value=""></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="user[1][name]" value=""></td>
<td><input type="text" name="user[1][address]" value=""><br></td>
<td><input type="text" name="user[1][age]" value=""></td>
<td><input type="text" name="user[1][email]" value=""></td>
</tr>
..........
Can Be Inserted into MySQL as this
foreach($_POST['user'] as $user)
{
$this->db->insert('mytable', $user);
}
This results in multiple MySQL queries. Is it possible to optimise it further, so that the insert occurs in one query
Something like this
insert multiple rows via a php array into mysql
but taking advantage of codeigniters simpler syntax. Thanks
