Array not being inserted into database

[gg39]

Hello all! I'm having a problem inserting an array into my database. My database is connected when I run the script but my table isn't being populated. Please help!

 

Here's my table structure followed by the php:

CREATE TABLE `demographic` (

  `uid` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL,

  `first_name` varchar(50) default NULL,

  `last_name` varchar(50) default NULL,

  `email` varchar(200) default NULL,

  `link` varchar(255) default NULL,

  `affiliations` varchar(255) default NULL,

  `birthday` varchar(50) default NULL,

  `current_location` varchar(200) default NULL,

  `education_history` varchar(500) default NULL,

  `work` mediumtext,

  `hometown_location` varchar(400) default NULL,

  `interests` varchar(200) default NULL,

  `locale` varchar(50) default NULL,

  `movies` varchar(500) default NULL,

  `music` varchar(500) default NULL,

  `political` varchar(200) default NULL,

  `relationship_status` varchar(100) default NULL,

  `sex` varchar(10) default NULL,

  `tv` varchar(200) default NULL,

  `status` tinyint(4) default NULL,

  `created` datetime default NULL,

  `updated` datetime default NULL,

  PRIMARY KEY  (`uid`)

) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Nowhere in any of that code do you execute any database query

Sorry, I see it now. Is this all within a class? What does the $this->db->insert() method look like?

I just had a quick glance.. but i noticed that straight after you connect to the database you close the connection...

    $link = mysql_connect('host', 'user', 'pass'); 
    if (!$link) {



die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
    }
    $db_selected = mysql_select_db('database');
    if (!$db_selected) {



die ('Can\'t use beta : ' . mysql_error());
    }

echo 'Connected successfully';
mysql_close($link);

Hello thorpe,

$data = array(
               'title' => 'My title' ,
               'name' => 'My Name' ,
               'date' => 'My date'
            );

$this->db->insert('mytable', $data); 

That's supposed to produce: INSERT INTO mytable (title, name, date) VALUES ('My title', 'My name', 'My date')

    $db_selected = mysql_select_db('database');

Hello Buddski,

Forgot to take that off before I posted it on here but even without that line there, it still doesn't populate the table.

Again. Is this code even in a class? It doesn't look like it. $this means nothing outside of a class.

 

Have you get error reporting on at a development level so you can actually see errors?
