PHP MySQL Update Data

PHP MySQL Update Data

The UPDATE statement is used to update existing records in a table:

UPDATE table_name SET column1=value, column2=value2,... WHERE some_column=some_value

Notice the WHERE clause in the UPDATE syntax: The WHERE clause specifies which record or records that should be updated. If you omit the WHERE clause, all records will be updated!

Example (MySQLi Object-oriented)

  •       
                            <?php
    $servername = "localhost";
    $username = "username";
    $password = "password";
    $dbname = "myDB";
    
    // Create connection
    $conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
    // Check connection
    if ($conn->connect_error) {
        die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
    }
    
    $sql = "UPDATE MyGuests SET lastname='Doe' WHERE id=2";
    
    if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
        echo "Record updated successfully";
    } else {
        echo "Error updating record: " . $conn->error;
    }
    
    $conn->close();
    ?>
                        

    Example (MySQLi Procedural)

    `
  •       
                            <?php	
    $servername = "localhost";
    $username = "username";
    $password = "password";
    $dbname = "myDB";
    
    // Create connection
    $conn = mysqli_connect($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
    // Check connection
    if (!$conn) {
        die("Connection failed: " . mysqli_connect_error());
    }
    
    $sql = "UPDATE MyGuests SET lastname='Doe' WHERE id=2";
    
    if (mysqli_query($conn, $sql)) {
        echo "Record updated successfully";
    } else {
        echo "Error updating record: " . mysqli_error($conn);
    }
    
    mysqli_close($conn);
    ?>
                        

    Example (PDO)

    `
  •       
                            <?php
    $servername = "localhost";
    $username = "username";
    $password = "password";
    $dbname = "myDBPDO";
    
    try {
        $conn = new PDO("mysql:host=$servername;dbname=$dbname", $username, $password);
        // set the PDO error mode to exception
        $conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
    
        $sql = "UPDATE MyGuests SET lastname='Doe' WHERE id=2";
    
        // Prepare statement
        $stmt = $conn->prepare($sql);
    
        // execute the query
        $stmt->execute();
    
        // echo a message to say the UPDATE succeeded
        echo $stmt->rowCount() . " records UPDATED successfully";
    } catch(PDOException $e) {
        echo $sql . "
    " . $e->getMessage(); } $conn = null; ?>
