用于更新mySQL数据库的PHP脚本
another day another question...
I need to write PHP script to update mySQL database.
For example: updating profile page when user want to change their first name, last name or etc.
Here is my php script so far, it doesn't work. Please help!
<?php
@ $db = new MySQLi('localhost','root','','myDB');
if(mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo 'Connection to database failed:'.mysqli_connect_error();
exit();
}
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$id = $db->real_escape_string($_GET['id']);
$First_Name2 = $_POST['First_Name2'];
$query = "UPDATE people SET $First_Name2 = First_Name WHERE `Id` = '$id'";
$result = $db->query($query);
if(! $result)
{
die('Could not update data: ' . mysql_error());
}
echo "Updated data successfully
";
$db->close();
}
?>
THank you.
Your sql is wrong. Apart from the gaping wide open SQL injection attack vulnerability, you're generating bad sql.
e.g. consider submitting "Fred" as the first name:
$First_Name2 = "Fred";
$query = "UPDATE people SET Fred = First_name WHERE ....";
now you're telling the db to update a field name "Fred" to the value in the "First_Name" field. Your values must be quoted, and reversed:
$query = "UPDATE people SET First_name = '$First_Name2' ...";
You are also mixing the mysqli and mysql DB libraries like a drunk staggering down the street. PHP's db libraries and function/method calls are NOT interchangeable like that.
In short, this code is pure cargo-cult programming.
