I have a html table displayed using foreach loop in php. And I do even have buttons to be clicked in multiple rows. And the code goes like this:
<form method="post">
<table>
<tr> <th> Item </th> <th>Click to select</th></tr>
<?php
$query="select items from items_table";
$result=$con->query($query); //$con is connection variable already initialized
$row=mysqli_fetch_assoc($result);
foreach ($row as $index) //loop
{
?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $index['items']; ?> </td>
<td><input type="button" value="select"> </td> //button here
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</table>
</form>
Now how can I get to know which button was pressed? I have read some web pages, which says we need to be using AJAX, and I'm a newbie with no knowledge of how it works.. Please help me out!
I tried to have button inside a loop and expected that the buttons works correctly directly. But it gives wrong output.
If I got what u want I'd say you should handle your button or input Some ways available
$index['items']
Is Not Correct where u used
<input value=<?php echo $row['id'] ?>
<input name=foo[<?php echo $row['id'] ?>] value=<?php echo $row['id'] ?> >
<input name='foo[]' value=<?php echo $row['id'] ?> >
Then handle them :
<?php
foreach($_REQUEST['foo'] as $name =>
$value){
echo $name ."posted and its value
is:". $value;
}
?>
OR
<?php
echo 'value of foo[1] Is '.$_REQUEST['foo'][1] ;
?>
You can use FOR EXAMPLE $row['name'] Or any field name u have in your table intead of $row['id'] that I gave
