Inserting Arrays

[gaz]

I have this insert in database query which works fine...

$sql = "INSERT INTO table (value) VALUES ($this->name[$basketcounter])

When i check the database the record just says 'array'
even though this is not the value of '$this->name[$basketcounter]'

How can i insert the value of the array into the database?

Generally, you shouldn't insert an array. It is usually a sign of improper database design. However, when it is necessary, you can use implode() to convert it into a string.

echo $this->name[$basketcounter];
