Question

What i want is, i have a uniq id call num i want insert mutiple description for that unique num. i have a form to add fileds dynamically so i can add fields as much i want. when i try to insert one row data its works perfectly when i try to insert more than one row data it doesn't work.
My View page :
<form name="codexworld_frm" action="" method="post">
<div class="field_wrapper">
<input type="text" name="num" value=""/><br />
<input type="text" name="description[]" value=""/><input type="text" name="voucher_no[]" value=""/><input type="text" name="price[]" value=""/>
<img src="<?php echo base_url('images/add-icon.png'); ?>"/>
</div>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="SUBMIT"/>
</form>
My Controller :
$data = array(
'no' => $this->input->post('num'),
'descriptions' => $this->input->post('description'),
'voucher' => $this->input->post('voucher_no'),
'des_price' => $this->input->post('price'),
);
$this->multi_model->form_insert($data);
$data['message'] = 'Data Inserted Successfully';
//Loading View
$this->load->view('multi_view', $data);
My Model:
function form_insert($data){
$this->db->insert('tbl_description', $data);
}
if i use foreache loop into my model i think it will work but i how do i use ?
When i use print_r() function this is out put

[0] => description1
[1] => description2
[2] => description3
)
Array

[1] => voucher 2
[2] => voucher 3
)
Array
(
[0] => 100
[1] => 200
[2] => 300
)

Answer 1

see this link it is use multiple insert without loop or you can use your foreach loop in controller count description post and go through it.
$data = array();
$count = count($this->input->post['description']);
for($i=0; $i < $count; $i++) {
$data[] = array(
'no'=>$this->input->post('num'),
'descriptions' => $this->input->post['descriptions'][$i],
'voucher' => $this->input->post['voucher'][$i],
'des_price' => $this->input->post['des_price'][$i],
);
}
$this->db->insert_batch('tbl_description', $data);

Hope this will helps you..
Controller
//if voucher_no is required..
$voucher_no = $this->input->post('voucher_no');
$count = count($voucher_no);
if ($count > 0) {
for ($i = 0; $i < $count; $i++) {
if (!empty($voucher_no[$i])) {
$data = array(
'no' => $this->input->post('num'),
'descriptions' => $this->input->post('description')[$i],
'voucher' => $this->input->post('voucher_no')[$i],
'des_price' => $this->input->post('price')[$i],
);
$this->multi_model->form_insert($data);
}
}
}
$data['message'] = 'Data Inserted Successfully';
//Loading View
$this->load->view('multi_view', $data);
Let us know the results..

change model as following.
function form_insert($data){
foreach($data['description'] as $key=>$des)
{
$savedata = array(
'no' => $data('no'),
'descriptions' => $des,
'voucher' => $data['voucher'][$key],
'des_price' => $data['dec_price'][$key],
);
$this->db->insert('tbl_description', $savedata);
}
}

Answer 4

you can insert object wise.
in your controller:-
$value=$this->input->post('num');
$count=count($val);
for($i=0; $i<$count; $i++){
$data['no']=$this->input->post('num')[$i];
$data['description']=$this->input->post('description')[$i];
$data['voucher']=$this->input->post('voucher')[$i];
$data['prize']=$this->input->post('prize')[$i];
$this->multi_model->form_insert($data);
}
