Question

Via post (not get) method, i’mm getting id’s in one file in php… How can I take this parameters into sql where method?
So example: i get: 1234, 4571, 1112; and sql must be like this: Select * from balalala WHERE id=1234 and id=4571 and id=1112… it can be one or more parameters… but how to automatize this using php and post method?

Answer 1

Get your data in an array (in this example, it’s called $data). If your POSTdata is passed as an array, just $data = $_POST['ids'] would be fine. If you actually have a comma-separated string, then use $data = preg_split("(\s*,\s*)",$_POST['ids']);. Then, use this:

$sql = "... WHERE id IN ('".implode("','",array_map("mysql_real_escape_string",$data))."')";

The IN syntax allows you to define a list of options the ID may be.
