You can do server side validation code in if...else condition also.
But below code will reduce your code in server side validation also gives result with comma(,).
Run this code and you see magic.
Here, validation will check only for four fields. Not for Phone number.
Example : First name, Middle name, Last name, Email is require.
// Database query
CREATE DATABASE `test` /*!40100 DEFAULT CHARACTER SET latin1 */
// Table query
CREATE TABLE `candidate1` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`site_id` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`last_name` varchar(64) ,
`first_name` varchar(64) ,
`middle_name` varchar(32) ,
`phone_home` varchar(40) ,
`email1` varchar(128),
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
)
Form1.php
<?php
if(isset($_POST['job_form_submit']))
{
$first_name = $_REQUEST['first_name'];
$middle_name = $_REQUEST['middle_name'];
$last_name = $_REQUEST['last_name'];
$email1 = $_REQUEST['email'];
$phone_home = $_REQUEST['phone_home'];
$result = '';
//Validations
$fields = array('first_name'=>$first_name,'middle_name'=>$middle_name, 'last_name'=>$last_name, 'email'=>$email1);
foreach($fields as $key => $val) {
if(empty($val)){
$result .= ucfirst (str_replace("_"," ",$key)) . ", ";
}
}
if(empty($result)){
// insert values in candidate table
$insert = mysqli_query($conn, "insert into candidate(first_name, middle_name, last_name, email1, phone_home) values ('".$first_name."', '".$middle_name."', '".$last_name."', '".$email1."', '".$phone_home."')");
if ($insert) {
echo "New record created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error: ".mysqli_error($conn);
}
$conn->close();
}
else{
echo rtrim($result,", ")." is require.";
}
