ik have a html form where i can select some options. I want to write those values comma separated to my database. This is the code i have
$genretotal = $_POST['genre'];
$genre0 = $genretotal[0];
$genre1 = $genretotal[1];
$genre2 = $genretotal[2];
$genre3 = $genretotal[3];
$genre4 = $genretotal[4];
$genre5 = $genretotal[5];
$genre6 = $genretotal[6];
$genre7 = $genretotal[7];
$genre = $genre0 . "," . $genre1 . "," . $genre2 . "," . $genre3 . "," . $genre4 . "," . $genre5 . "," . $genre6 . "," . $genre7;
How can i leave out the empty values?
Try with implode
and array_filter
implode(',', array_filter($_POST['genre']));
Why so?
$genre = join(',', array_filter($_POST['genre'], function($sItem)
{
//here I assume your 'not empty' matches PHP empty() function
//if not, then add desired conditions
return !empty($sItem);
}));
$genretotal = $_POST['genre'];
if(isset($genretotal) && count($genretotal)>0)
{//This check array is null or not
$gen_arr = implode(",",$genretotal);
}//end if
echo $gen_arr;
//This is the code you avoid empty values
