How to combine both array and insert into database php
Question by vvr
if only one array is there for example
$values = array(x, y, z);
i am adding them into database like this
foreach ($values as $value)
{
$insertFunction = addValues($value);
}
my arrays:
$array1 = Array ( 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2 );
$array2 = Array ( fb1, or1, fb2, or2, fb3, or3, fb4, or4, fb5, or5 );
But i want both array to combine and insert them into database.
How can i do this please help me
Updated:
When i am printing the POST values i am getting out put like this
Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 1 [3] => 2 [4] => 1 [5] => 2 [6] => 1 [7] => 2 [8] => 1 [9] => 2 )
Array ( [0] => fb1 [1] => or1 [2] => fb2 [3] => or2 [4] => fb3 [5] => or3 [6] => fb4 [7] => or4 [8] => fb5 [9] => or5 )
when i tried with array_merge my out put is like this
Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 1 [3] => 2 [4] => 1 [5] => 2 [6] => 1 [7] => 2 [8] => 1 [9] => 2 [10] => fb1 [11] => or1 [12] => fb2 [13] => or2 [14] => fb3 [15] => or3 [16] => fb4 [17] => or4 [18] => fb5 [19] => or5 )

EDIT:
After you mentioned seperated columns I think I understand what you’re looking for:
I’m assuming that array1 and array2 are in the same size.
for($i = 0; $i < count($array1); $i++)
{
$array2[$i] = (int)$array2[$i]; //"validating" the username (an integer)
mysql_query("INSERT INTO yourTableName (`username`,`network_id`) VALUES('".$array2[$i]."','".$array1[$i]."')");
}
Result:
tblName:
username: 1 2 1 …
network_id: fb1 or1 fb2 …
Is that what you were looking for?
Ignore this and merging:
$combined = array_merge($array1 , $array2);
//$combined = Array ( 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2,fb1, or1, fb2, or2, fb3, or3, fb4, or4, fb5, or5 );

You can use array_merge(), function to merge multiple array into one.
$arrays = array_merge($array1 , $array2);
foreach ($arrays as $value)
{
$insertFunction = addValues($value);
}
