Hi all,
In here, I will show you to how to insert data into mysql database from php page.

HTML Form
HTML Style

Create Database

In here, the database is create for performing insert operation. Create database and name it whatever you want.

CREATE DATABASE prittytimes ;

In here ‘prittytimes’ is the database name for creating table. We create table in prittytimes database.

Create Table

Now create table and name it ‘tbl_users’

CREATE TABLE `prittytimes`.`tbl_users` (
`user_id` INT( 10 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY ,
`firstname` VARCHAR( 25 ) NOT NULL ,
`lastname` VARCHAR( 25 ) NOT NULL ,
`useremail` VARCHAR( 45 ) NOT NULL
) ENGINE = InnoDB;

CREATE TABLE `prittytimes`.`tbl_users` (

`user_id` INT( 10 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY ,

`firstname` VARCHAR( 25 ) NOT NULL ,

`lastname` VARCHAR( 25 ) NOT NULL ,

`useremail` VARCHAR( 45 ) NOT NULL

) ENGINE = InnoDB;

We create ‘tbl_users’ table in ‘prittytimes’ database. And the tbl_users’ fields are user_id,firstname,lastname,useremail.

HTML Form

From the above code we can clearly say that, first we specify the html part for input field like firstname, lastname,useremail. The fields are specified in input tag with name. Next is PHP part, in here first we specify database connection in php page for insert the value from form. Get the input values from form using $_POST[]method. and insert values to database from form field.

Happy coding
