Sometimes we required to capture lots of user details during registration. Due to this we got long forms on our website. So the best solution is to break into smaller logical section and convert it into a multi step form. This type of mult step form always improves usability on our site comparing very long form. Now we are going to explain how to convert very long form into multi-step signup form using PHP, MySQLi / PDO and jQuery.
You can use another password encryption and decryption method if you have PHP version < 5.5.
Database SQL Script:
CREATE TABLE `users` (
`id` INT(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
`name` VARCHAR(100) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`password` VARCHAR(72) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`email` VARCHAR(100) NULL DEFAULT NULL,
`gender` VARCHAR(6) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
)
COLLATE='utf8_general_ci'
ENGINE=InnoDB;
Database Connection: (db_connection.php)
<?php
define('_HOST_NAME', 'localhost');
define('_DATABASE_USER_NAME', 'root');
define('_DATABASE_PASSWORD', '');
define('_DATABASE_NAME', 'demo');
$dbConnection = new mysqli(_HOST_NAME, _DATABASE_USER_NAME, _DATABASE_PASSWORD,
_DATABASE_NAME);
if ($dbConnection->connect_error) {
trigger_error('Connection Failed: ' .
$dbConnection->connect_error, E_USER_ERROR);
}
index.php
<?php
include 'db_connection.php';
if(isset($_POST['finish'])){
$name = '"'.$dbConnection->real_escape_string($_POST['name']).'"';
$email = '"'.$dbConnection->real_escape_string($_POST['email']).'"';
$password = '"'.password_hash($dbConnection->real_escape_string($_POST['password'])
, PASSWORD_DEFAULT).'"';
$gender = '"'.$dbConnection->real_escape_string($_POST['gender']).'"';
$sqlInsertUser = $dbConnection->query("INSERT INTO users (name, password, email,
gender) VALUES($name, $password, $email, $gender)");
if($sqlInsertUser === false){
trigger_error('Error: ' . $dbConnection->error, E_USER_ERROR);
}else{
echo 'Last inserted record is : ' .$dbConnection->insert_id ;
}
}
?>
