Urgent help with multiple updates in DB, please! - El Forum - 10-04-2008

Hello Guys,
I have a simple problem. I am developing an online photo album and I want the users to be able to update ALL image descriptions on one page.
How can this be done? I have tried with some kind of foreach loop but fail.
I have namned each description field desc[] and added an hidden ID field for each image by the name of the_id[] with the database ID of the image.
The controller looks like the below code, what is wrong, who can it be fixed?
Code:
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Gather the incoming data into variables
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$owner = $this->session->userdata('id');
foreach ($_POST['desc'] as $desc) {
foreach ($_POST['id'] as $id) {
$the_id = $id;
}
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Put the incoming date in variables
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$data = array(
'aco_desc' => $desc
);
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Delete the selected feed
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$this->db->where('aco_owner', $owner);
$this->db->where_in('aco_id', $the_id);
$this->db->update('fe_albums_content', $data);
}The problem is that it isn´t updating each image only the last one.
Thankful for a quick reply.

echoing is the best method to debug these sort of code. In short i feel, you might have problem in assigning $_POST['id']. i mean the view file where you assign id[] array. please print id values on top of this function to view whether your have assigned all ids correctly.
Lets have a look later what's come up

Hi Sumon,
The form items look like this in the view file:
Code:
<input type="text" class="textbox" name="desc[]" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="id[]" value="6" /></div>
<input type="text" class="textbox" name="desc[]" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="id[]" value="7" /></div>
<input type="text" class="textbox" name="desc[]" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="id[]" value="8" /></div>Thanks!

Ops!! the my former thought is totally wrong. because you loop $_POST['id'] inside outer loop. So without any doubt $the_id should be the last value of the hidden field.
Change your code as
Code:
$i=0;
foreach ($_POST['desc'] as $desc) {
$the_id = $_POST['id'][$i++];
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Put the incoming date in variables
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$data = array(
'aco_desc' => $desc
);
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Delete the selected feed
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$this->db->where('aco_owner', $owner);
$this->db->where_in('aco_id', $the_id);
$this->db->update('fe_albums_content', $data);

Hi again,
Another small problem has arisen. I am using SWFupload for the images and when I upload an image it works perfectly fine but the database get 12 extra posts + plus the correct post. Why is that, I think it has to be something with the looping process.
Code:
if ( ! $this->upload->do_upload('Filedata'))
{
$error = array('error' => $this->upload->display_errors());
$this->load->view('albums_upload', $error);
} else {
$data = array('upload_data' => $this->upload->data());
$res = $this->upload->data();
$i=0;
foreach ($res as $rese) {
$test =$i+1;
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Create the mini image
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$imgfile = $res['full_path'];

// Load the Image Library
//

$this->load->library('image_lib');
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Set the configuration for the mini image
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$config['image_library'] = 'GD2';
$config['source_image'] = $imgfile;
$config['create_thumb'] = TRUE;
$config['maintain_ratio'] = FALSE;
$config['quality'] = '95%';
$config['width'] = 51;
$config['height'] = 50;
$config['master_dim'] = 'width';
$this->image_lib->initialize($config);
$this->image_lib->resize();
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//
// Set image size
//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$width = $res['image_width'];
$height = $res['image_height'];
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
//

//
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
$config2['image_library'] = 'GD2';
$config2['source_image'] = $imgfile;
$config2['create_thumb'] = FALSE;
$config2['maintain_ratio'] = TRUE;
$config2['quality'] = '95%';
if ($width > 500) {
$config2['width'] = 500;
} else {
$config2['width'] = $width;
}
if ($height > 300) {
$config2['height'] = 300;
} else {
$config2['height'] = $height;
}
$this->image_lib->initialize($config2);
$this->image_lib->resize();

unlink($delete);
unlink($delete2);

You have used
Code:
$owner = $_POST["owner"];Code:
foreach ($res as $rese)Urgent help with multiple updates in DB, please! - El Forum - 10-05-2008

Hi again Sumon,
I replace the $_POST["owner"]; with "" and now the ownership goes to user 0, but the problem remains, there are still 12 extra records for each uploaded image everytime I upload.
What can be wrong, seems to be some kind of looping that goes out of hand.
Thanks,
Daniel

In a second i can tell you that, you have to set a condition by using base file name. Loop operation will proceed only if the image field is non empty. If not works for you please paste your view (must contain file field) at here.
