Insert multiple check box values into multiple rows in one table? - foreach

Question

I have multiple check box with the same input name like this
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop1">pop1<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop2">pop2<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop3">pop3<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop4">pop4 <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop5">pop5<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop6">pop6 <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop7">pop7<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop8">pop8 <br>
The database table contains two columns (ID and POPNAME).
I need every pop checked to inserted into database in separate row but with the same ID so this is my PHP:
$pop = implode(',', $_POST['pop']);
mysql_query("INSERT INTO pops (id, popname) VALUES (LAST_INSERT_ID(), '$pop')");
But this not working. I tried to stick to this answer make explode then use for each but also not working. This is the foreach code:
$pop = implode(',', $_POST['pop']);
$pops = explode(',', $pop);
foreach ($pops as $pop )
{
mysql_query("INSERT INTO pops (id, popname) VALUES (LAST_INSERT_ID(), '$pop')");
}
Am I missing something!

Answer 1

It's solved.
Problem is $pop defined twice one as a var another one in foreach
So after rename the first var every thing ok
$popimp = implode(',', $_POST['pop']);
$pops = explode(',', $pop);
foreach ($pops as $pop )
{
mysql_query("INSERT INTO pops (id, popname) VALUES (LAST_INSERT_ID(), '$pop')");
}

PDO php:
Database connection code:
<?php
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbname = 'yourDB';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = '';
try {
$db = new PDO("mysql:host={$dbhost};dbname={$dbname}",$dbuser,$dbpass);
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
}
catch(PDOException $e) {
echo "Connection error: ".$e->getMessage();
}
?>
and php code:
$pop= implode(', ', $_POST['pop']);
$statement = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO popTable (pop) VALUES (?)");
$statement->execute(array($pop));
$success_message = "Order's has been inserted successfully.";
html:
<form action="pop_form">
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop1">pop1<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop2">pop2<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop3">pop3<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop4">pop4 <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop5">pop5<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop6">pop6 <br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop7">pop7<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="pop[]" value="pop8">pop8 <br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
</form>
