I am trying to enter user’s data into a database. I think the commas in the address are causing the error.
JavaScript
x
<?php
$full_name = $_POST["fullname"];
$email = $_POST["email"];
$password = $_POST["password"];
$full_address = $_POST["address"];
$city = $_POST["city"];
$age = $_POST["age"];
$contact_number = $_POST["number"];
$gender = $_POST["gender"];
$education = $_POST["education"];
?>
<?php
$servername = "hidden";
$username = "hidden";
$password = "hidden";
$dbname = "hidden";
// Create connection
$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if (!$conn) {
die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
}
$sql = "INSERT INTO users (full_name, email, password,full_address,city,age,contact_number,gender,education)
VALUES ($full_name, $email, $password,$full_address,$city,$age,$contact_number,$gender,$education)";
if (mysqli_query($conn, $sql)) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . mysqli_error($conn);
}
mysqli_close($conn);
?>

Answer
As others have noted, your code is vulnerable to SQL injections. You should consider using parameterized queries:
JavaScript
$sql = "INSERT INTO users (full_name, email, password, full_address, city, age, contact_number, gender, education)
VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)";
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($conn, $sql);
// Bind parameters
$stmt->bind_param("s", $full_name);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $email);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $password);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $full_address);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $city);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $age);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $contact_number);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $gender);
$stmt->bind_param("s", $education);
if ($stmt->execute()) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br>" . mysqli_error($conn);
}
For more information refer to the PHP manual on MySQLi prepared statements.
