$database = "myDb";

$conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $database);

}

if(isset($_POST["submits"])){
    $comp_text = $_POST["comp"];
    $complaints = $_POST["complaints"];
    $ides =$_POST["resident_id"];

    $statementi = mysqli_stmt_init($conn);
    mysqli_stmt_prepare($statementi, "INSERT INTO table_complaint (nature_of_complaints, status) 
     VALUES (?, ?) WHERE resident_id = ?");
    mysqli_stmt_bind_param($statementi, "ssi", $comp_text, $complaints);

    mysqli_stmt_execute($statementi);

    mysqli_stmt_close($statementi);
}
 mysqli_close($conn);

Answer 1

Your insert query is incorrect.

You can use this:

INSERT INTO table_complaint (resident_id,nature_of_complaints, status) VALUES (?,?,?)

and then bind the parameters:

mysqli_stmt_bind_param($statementi, "iss", $ides,$comp_text, $complaints);
