I am currently experiencing a problem passing data from a PHP page to
PostgreSQL.

 I am passing different data types like numeric, and text.  Let me show you
some of the code I am using....

This is the code that I am using to pass the input data to a page called
"checkbook2.php"

<form action="checkbook2.php" method="GET">
  <p align="center">Check Date
    <input type="text" name="check_date" VALUE="">
    Check Number
    <input type="text" name="check_number" VALUE="">
    Check Payee
    <input type="text" name="check_payee" VALUE="">
    Check Amount
    <input type="text" name="check_amount" VALUE="">
  </p>
  <p align="center">Check Transaction Type
    <input type="text" name="check_trans_type" VALUE="">
  </p>
  <input type=submit value="Add New Entry">
  </form>

This is the data from the checkbook2.php that talks to the PostgreSQL
Server.  It is running version 7.2.

$conn=pg_connect("host=192.168.0.2 user=postgres password=postgres
dbname=checkbook");

@$sql="INSERT INTO checking VALUES('$check_date', '$check_num',
'$check_pay', '$check_amount', '$check_trans_type');";

$result=pg_exec($conn, $sql);

check_data is type text
check_num is type int4
check_pay is type text
check_amount is type numeric(8,2)
check_trans_type is type text

The error that comes up is ...
Warning: PostgreSQL query failed: ERROR: Bad numeric input format
'check_trans_type' in /etc/httpd/htdocs/checkbook2.php on line 41

Anyone know what could be going on here??  Please let me know, thanks in
advance! :)

Hi Preston

@$sql="INSERT INTO checking VALUES('$check_date', '$check_num',
'$check_pay', '$check_amount', '$check_trans_type');";

Try your INSERT without '' around '$check_amount'. The quotes are only
used for character-types but not for numeric data.

Hmmm well it still tells me the same thing when I take the quotes off.  Is
there some type of casting that I might have to do?  I have read about the
cast command, but don't understand how to use it.

Hi Preston

@$sql="INSERT INTO checking VALUES('$check_date', '$check_num',
'$check_pay', '$check_amount', '$check_trans_type');";

POST_VARS should always be strings.  Have you tried this without the php,
as in psql.  What happens when you replace, in the insert statement,
$check_trans_type, with a correct value?  Is it supposed to be like
withdrawl, deposit...etc?
Good luck

Have you tried echoing the $sql after it is created?  it's possible that you
have nothing in your php variables.  In that case, and empty string would
cause and error.  Otherwise, postgres doesn't care if you have quotes around
an numeric type on insert.

Ok I figured it out... I wasn't sending data to all of the columns, just
some.  I had some other columns called check_pre_balance and
check_post_balance.  When I entered data for those columns it went through.
The reason I didn't enter data for those columns is because I haven't worked
on the SQL command to update the pre and post balances yet and was doing
some testing first.  Ok, well thanks for the replies everyone :)

Looks like the definition of the attribut check_trans_type is not
text, but numeric. The quotes are not needed when entering numeric
data but they also do not disturb.

You can also use insert into checking (<whatever columns here>) values
('whatever', 'values', 'here');

That's what I do...

Re: what to do if a query fails

Hi,

I summarized what to do if a query fails. It's advisable to:

    + var_dump() all variables ($connection, $query and all used in $query)
    + log your queries to see what postgres tries to do
    + check the table definition
    + use explicit column list in INSERT
    (even so, future pg release may not support abbreviated INSERT syntax)

and some additional notes not related to the original topic:

| $conn=pg_connect("host=192.168.0.2 user=postgres password=postgres
| dbname=checkbook");

    + do not connect in to postgres as superuser!
    + escape and quote all user input sent to database backend!
    (consider using addslashes(), sprintf(), etc.)
