Hi, I'm using datatables and editor with PHP.
What I'm trying to do (but unfortunately failing) is creating a record in table prodotti(alfanumerico PK, codice, ...) and simultaneously create one in table descrizioni(alfanumerico PK, desc_breve_it, desc_lunga_it, ...) from one single form submit.
Initially what I got was the SQL error:
Integrity constraint violation: 1452 Cannot add or update a child row: a foreign key constraint fails
but then I tried to fix it and this thread helped a lot. I wasn't aware of that specific use of Join class and join/link method.
So, with the right adjustments, this is my part of PHP editor code:
$data = Editor::inst($db, 'prodotti', 'alfanumerico')
->fields(...)
->join(
Join::inst('descrizioni', 'object')
->join('alfanumerico', 'alfanumerico')
->field(
Field::inst('desc_breve_it'),
Field::inst('desc_lunga_it')
)
)
but, even if the data is correctly sent to the frontend, and the editor on the frontend correctly sends data to the server like:
data[0][prodotti][codice]: prova4
data[0][prodotti][alfanumerico]: 050505050505
...
data[0][descrizioni][desc_breve_it]: test1
data[0][descrizioni][desc_lunga_it]: test2
action: create
The server doesn't seem to manage the incoming data well since they don't get stored.
So I enabled the debugger on PHP editor and took a look at the response. Apparently, there's no trace of 'test1' nor 'test2', and the only 'INSERT' that is done on descrizioni table contains only alfanumerico field.
Am I missing something? Are DT libraries able to accomplish this?
Thank you!
