how can i write the function to store the data from multiselect drop down to my table each value in each row along with other value. Can anyone tell me what should i do? and how to write "string to array" conversion and "for loop" for the insertion
If you are getting array from multi select and want to insert it in one row. You should implode array into comma separated string then insert it in table
$val = implode(",",$request['groupID[]']);
Then put $val into your $data array like
$data = array("accountID" => $abc,
"deviceID"=> $request['deviceID'],
"groupID"=>$val,
"lastUpdateTime"=>time(),
"creationTime"=>time());
If you are getting string then explode it
$val = explode(",",$request['groupID[]']);
$count = count($val);
for($a=0; $a<$count; $a++){
$data = array("accountID" => $abc,
"deviceID"=> $request['deviceID'],
"groupID"=>$val[$a],
"lastUpdateTime"=>time(),
"creationTime"=>time());
}
