I just started learning php and this is one my first projects which is to create a database with various tables in it. The problem I encounter here is that I cant seem to edit the existing product as the page prints out
Notice: Undefined variable: product_id in C:\xampp\htdocs\goodsdept_manager\edit_product.php on line 15
Here are my codes:
edit_product.php
<?php
$category_id = $_POST['category_id'];
$code = $_POST['code'];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$price = $_POST['price'];
// $product_id = $_POST['productID'];
if(isset($_POST['productID'])){ $product_id = $_POST['productID']; }
if(empty($code) || empty($name) || empty($price)){
$error = "Invalid product data.";
include('error.php');
} else{
require_once('database.php');
$query = "UPDATE products SET categoryID = '$category_id', productCode = '$code', productName = '$name', listPrice = '$price' WHERE productID = '$product_id'";
$statement = $db->prepare($query);
$statement->execute();
$statement->closeCursor();
include('index.php');
}
?>
edit_product_form.php
<?php
$product_id = $_POST['product_id'];
//Get the categories for the pull down menu
require_once('database.php');
$query = "SELECT*FROM categories ORDER BY categoryID";
$categories = $db->query($query);
$query = "SELECT*FROM products WHERE productID = $product_id";
$edit_product = $db->query($query);
$edit_product = $edit_product->fetch();
//Define the VALUES
$code = $edit_product['productCode'];
$name = $edit_product['productName'];
$price = $edit_product['listPrice'];
$category_id = $edit_product['categoryID'];
?>

And the index.php
<?php
require_once('database.php'); //calls the database.php file to validate the user
//Get Category ID
if (!isset($category_id)) {
$category_id = filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'category_id', FILTER_VALIDATE_INT);
if ($category_id == NULL || $category_id == FALSE) {
$category_id = 1;
}
}
//Get name for selected category
$queryCategory = 'SELECT * FROM categories
WHERE categoryID = :category_id';
$statement1 = $db->prepare($queryCategory);
$statement1->bindValue(':category_id', $category_id);
$statement1->execute();
$category = $statement1->fetch();
$category_name = $category['categoryName'];
$statement1->closeCursor();
// Get all categories
$query = 'SELECT * FROM categories
ORDER BY categoryID';
$statement = $db->prepare($query);
$statement->execute();
$categories = $statement->fetchAll();
$statement->closeCursor();
// Get products for selected category
$queryProducts = 'SELECT * FROM products

$statement3 = $db->prepare($queryProducts);
$statement3->bindValue(':category_id', $category_id);
$statement3->execute();
$products = $statement3->fetchAll();
$statement3->closeCursor();
?>

I've been struggling to solve the problem myself so I figured out the experts in stackoverflow can help me. Sorry if silly mistakes were made as I am still learning and always looking to improve. Thanks!
