What I am trying doing here is inserting and sending the number of orders via SMTP phpmailer. I am using foreach to separate the order data into key value pair and inserting into the database.
once the execution is successful now I want to send a mail to the owner with the order details which is just inserted. Just for a test I only picked productid as a order detail.
Here is the mail that just arrived.
Problem
What I am looking is the database has inserted 2 productid (26,27) but in mail i only got productid (26) I want the dynamic productid insertion inside the mail body. I use while loop but I thing the goal cannot achieve or fulfill. I would be appreciate if anyone printout where I am getting wrong.
PHP:
$shown = false;
foreach($_SESSION["shopping_cart"] as $number => $val)
{
// prepare and bind
$stmt = $conn->prepare("INSERT INTO purchase(guest_code,productid,quantity,date_purchase) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)");
$stmt->bind_param("siis",$_SESSION['CODE'],$val['product_id'],$val['product_quantity'],$current_date_time); //inserting mutiple value in db successful.
if($stmt->execute())
{
if(!$shown) //show msg or dedirect only once
{
$sql= mysqli_query($conn,"select productid from purchase where guest_code='".$_SESSION['CODE']."'"); //fetch only productid for test
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($sql))
{
$productid = $row['productid'];
$message = "<tr><td style='text-align:center;'><strong>".$productid."</td></tr>";
$mail->msgHTML($message); //trying to load multiple productid in $message
}
$mail->Subject = 'New Order Arrived!';
if(!$mail->send())
{
$mail_error = 'error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
exit();
}
else {
//if mail sent then
unset($_SESSION["shopping_cart"]); //distroy all the values in the cart
//header('location:../checkout.php?er=false');
}
$shown = true;
}
}else
{
if(!$shown) //show msg only once
{
echo 'ERROR: while placing your order. Please contact restaurant owner.';
$shown = true;
}
}
}
Every time you call $mail->msgHTML($message);
it replaces the entire contents of Body
; it doesn't add to it. I would expect you do something along the lines of:
$mail->Body = '<p>Your order</p><table>';
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($sql)) {
$productid = $row['productid'];
$mail->Body .= "<tr><td style='text-align:center;'><strong>".$productid."</td></tr>";
}
$mail->Body .= '</table>';
