Note, this is a basic MySQL query to insert data. However, before using this in production it's important to add proper escaping and security to prevent SQL injections. This will be covered in the next article.
We highly recommend that you follow these tutorials on a localhost testing server like Uniserver. Read through Part 1 here to look at our recommendations. These tutorials follow a phased approach and it is highly recommended that you do not make snippets of code live prior to completing this tutorial series.
$sql = "INSERT INTO content(title,content,author)VALUES ('".$_POST["title"]."', '".$_POST["content"]."', '".$_POST["author"]."')";
$title = $letsconnect -> real_escape_string($_POST['title']);
$content = $letsconnect -> real_escape_string($_POST['content']);
$author = $letsconnect -> real_escape_string($_POST['author']);
$letsconnect
? This was used because of our db connection defined in conn.php.$sql = "INSERT INTO content (title,content,author) VALUES ('".$title."', '".$content."', '".$author."')";
