I've been trawling the web for hours now and trying different methods, and I can't work out why PDO can't insert any row where one of the values contains a decimal.
For example, if the value entered into the cost field has no decimal value then it works fine. But anything like with a decimal and it just ignores the whole row.
200 works, even 200.00 works. But things like 39.99 don't.
Here's the code:
$invoice_id = $db->lastInsertId('id');
$item_name = $_POST['item_name'];
$item_qty = $_POST['item_qty'];
$item_cost = $_POST['item_cost'];
$item_vat = $_POST['item_vat'];
for($i = 0; $i < count($item_name); $i++) {
$item_query = $db->prepare("INSERT INTO hm_invoice_items(invoice, item, qty, amount, vat) VALUES(:invoice, :item, :qty, :amount, :vat)");
$item_query->bindParam(":invoice", $invoice_id);
$item_query->bindParam(":item", $item_name[$i]);
$item_query->bindParam(":qty", $item_qty[$i]);
$item_query->bindParam(":amount", $item_cost[$i]);
$item_query->bindParam(":vat", $item_vat[$i]);
if (!$item_query->execute())
{
die(showMessage("There has been a problem adding the invoice items.", "Error!"));
}
}
A var_dump tells me that the insert query is receiving the values, but it does not like dealing with decimals.
