在mysql中插入多行并限制其中一行只能输入一次

Question

I have an invoice form which posts multiple rows to an insert page for insertion to multiple rows.My stumbling block is that when I insert the multiple order items with a foreach statement I also insert the invoice gross for each row. How would I go about only inserting for example the "invoice gross amount"on the last line of the insert in a column of my choosing.

I have enclosed the code I am using to insert the form, and before it is mentioned, I have stripped out calls to data cleansing functions for clarity.

Solved, it was quiet easy really once I had a good look,by changing the order of the insert and removing from the "foreach" I achieved what I wanted with the following code. Thanks to all that helped.

It sounds like your core challenge is determining when you are in the last iteration of your foreach loop, so that you can then modify the query. Is that right?

You could use a counter to help. Something along these lines:

$i = 0;
$len = count($_POST['lst_nominal_code']);

foreach ($_POST['lst_nominal_code'] as $row=>$id) {
   // Assign (don't forget to sanitize!) all the POST variables
   <snip>

   if ($i == $len - 1) {
      // This is the last line! We want a different query, with $invoice_gross included
      $query = "...";
   } else {
      // This is NOT the last line, use the default query without $invoice_gross
      $query = "...";
   }

   $conn->query($query);

   $i++;
}
