Currently I have an Array that looks like the following when output thru print r     Array        0    gt  Array                        R ID    gt  32              email    gt  a a com              name    gt  Bob                 1    gt  Array                        R ID    gt  32              email    gt  b b com              name    gt  Dan                 2    gt  Array                        R ID    gt  32              email    gt  c c com              name    gt  Paul                 3    gt  Array                        R ID    gt  35              email    gt  d d com              name    gt  Mike                 I would like to insert this data into one table with each element value belonging to its respective field   Currently my php code looks like the following  if is array  EMailArr        foreach  EMailArr as  R ID   gt   email   gt   name         sql    INSERT INTO email list  R ID  EMAIL  NAME  values    R ID     email     name         mysql query  sql  or exit mysql error                 Note   R ID is NOT the primary key in this table    Can someone help me understand how I should approach this situation  Thank you for reading and your help   Regards

I ve a PHP library which helps to insert array into MySQL Database  By using this you can create update and delete  Your array key value should be same as the table column value    Just using a single line code for the create operation  DB  create  db   YOUR TABLE NAME    dataArray     where  db is your Database connection   Similarly  You can use this for update and delete  Select operation will be available soon  Github link to download   https   github com pairavanvvl crud

First of all you should stop using mysql     MySQL supports multiple inserting like  INSERT INTO example VALUES    100   Name 1    Value 1    Other 1       101   Name 2    Value 2    Other 2       102   Name 3    Value 3    Other 3       103   Name 4    Value 4    Other 4      You just have to build one string in your foreach loop which looks like that   values     100   Name 1    Value 1    Other 1     100   Name 1    Value 1    Other 1     100   Name 1    Value 1    Other 1       and then insert it after the loop   sql    INSERT INTO email list  R ID  EMAIL  NAME  VALUES    values    Another way would be Prepared Statements  which are even more suited for your situation

I would avoid to do a query for each entry   if is array  EMailArr          sql    INSERT INTO email list  R ID  EMAIL  NAME  values          valuesArr   array        foreach  EMailArr as  row             R ID    int   row  R ID             email   mysql real escape string   row  email               name   mysql real escape string   row  name                valuesArr         R ID     email     name                 sql    implode       valuesArr        mysql query  sql  or exit mysql error
