Code-Mates

+

This blog is to document Code_Mates, a programming training group that meets every Saturday. We are based in Austin.

+

There are four people. Matt Elliot(Developer 1)and +Tim Macaulay-Robinson(Developer 2) who have 20 years+ each experience. +Vicky Barnato (me) & Travis Austin who are non techs. Both of us come from +BA backgrounds and are programming novices.

+ +

Our goals: +Matt Elliot: Enhance tech communication and training skills by getting two civilians ready for programming jobs in one year. +Tim Macaulay-Robinson: Ditto.

+ +Vicky Barnato (me) & Travis Austin: Travis wants to move from Business Analysis to programming.I want to be less dependent on developers’ explanations to understand how technology works. +This blog documents the projects and tasks that Tim and Matt set Travis and me to teach us. +These will be basic tasks at first. Readers with programming experience may find the first couple of posts too basic.

+

Please be patient we are novices! The first part of this post documents how I attempted to create an online guestbook form. +Please let me know if you see any mistakes or want additional explanations. +SQL was used for the database, html for the form and PHP to connect the two.

+ +The task was broken down by Tim into these steps:

+

    1. Create database "guestbook" with 1 table "guest_" + - Guest name should be a text column
      2. +
    2. Create html form, text input, and button + - form should post data to php file insert_guest.php
      3. +
    3. Open connection to mysql using php mysql
      4. +
    4. Insert guest name into database + - write the insert statement to insert the guests name into the database + - submit the query to the database using the php mysql connection
      5. +
    +

    + +

    My code:

    + + + CREATE DATABASE guestbook2;
    +//You should see this message: “Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)”
    + USE guestbook2
    +//You should see this message “Database changed” +
    CREATE TABLE guest ( + guestID int, + guestname text, + sign_date date, + comments varchar(30), + reason varchar(30) + ); +
    //You should see this message "Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)"
    +
    +

    Below is the html form guestbook2.php where guests will input data:

    + +

    +

    +

    + +

    +

    +

    Please fill in the survey below

    +

    Guest Name

    +

    Did you have a good stay?

    + +

    +

    Why or Why not?

    +

    +

    +

    +

    + + This is how happy you will be if you meet an old friend at the hotel + +

    +

    +

    +

    +

    + +

    Below is the code from insert_guest.php file which sets up the connection between the guestbook database and the html form

    + +

    $conn = mysqli_connect("localhost","username","password","guestbook2");

    +

    //you will need to input username and password to set up the connection

    + +

    // Check connection

    +

    if (mysqli_connect_errno())

    +

    { + echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();

    +

    }

    +

    // not used connection

    +

    // $myPDO = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=guestbook2', 'username', 'password');

    + +

    if ($_POST) {

    + +

    $sql="INSERT INTO guest (guestname, comments, reason) VALUES ('".$_POST['guestname']."', '".$_POST['comment']."', '".$_POST['reason']."')";

    + +

    if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {

    +

    echo "New record created successfully";

    +

    } else{

    +

    echo "Error: " . $sql . "
    " . $conn->error;

    +

    } + } + ?>
