How to query a value in a field in php

In PHP programs, we need to frequently query data in the database. Among them, a common operation is to query whether a field contains a specific value. To do this, we can use the LIKE condition in the SQL statement. Below, detailed sample code will be given.

Suppose we have a table named users with a field named hobbies. We need to query whether the field contains the string "PHP". We can use the following SQL statement:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE hobbies LIKE '%PHP%';

In PHP, we will use PDO extension to connect to the database and execute this SQL statement. The following is a sample code to connect to the database using PDO:

// 1. 配置数据库信息
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbname = 'testdb';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpassword = '';

// 2. 连接到数据库
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$dbhost;dbname=$dbname", $dbuser, $dbpassword);

// 3. 设置错误处理方式为异常
$dbh->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

// 4. 准备 SQL 语句
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE hobbies LIKE '%PHP%'";

// 5. 执行 SQL 语句并获取结果集
$stmt = $dbh->query($sql);
$results = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

// 6. 处理结果集
foreach ($results as $row) {
    echo $row['username'] . ' likes PHP. <br>';
}

// 7. 关闭数据库连接
$dbh = null;

In the above code, we first configure the database information and then use PDO to connect to the database. Next, set the error handling mode of PDO to exception so that we can debug the program. Then, use SQL statements to query the database and obtain the result set. Finally, use a foreach loop to process the result set and output the username.

It should be noted that when using PDO to query the database, we should use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection attacks. Below is the sample code using parameterized query:

// 搜索的字符串
$search = 'PHP';

// 1. 配置数据库信息
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbname = 'testdb';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpassword = '';

// 2. 连接到数据库
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$dbhost;dbname=$dbname", $dbuser, $dbpassword);

// 3. 设置错误处理方式为异常
$dbh->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);

// 4. 准备 SQL 语句
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE hobbies LIKE :search";
$stmt = $dbh->prepare($sql);

// 5. 绑定参数并执行 SQL 语句
$searchParam = '%' . $search . '%';
$stmt->bindParam(':search', $searchParam);
$stmt->execute();
$results = $stmt->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);

// 6. 处理结果集
foreach ($results as $row) {
    echo $row['username'] . ' likes PHP. <br>';
}

// 7. 关闭数据库连接
$dbh = null;

In the above code, we use parameterized query and bind parameters to prevent SQL injection attacks. Prepare SQL statements through PDO's prepare() method and bind variables to the parameters. When executing a SQL statement, we only need to pass the value of the parameter variable to safely query the database.

In short, using the LIKE condition in the SQL statement and the PDO extension, we can easily query a value in a field. At the same time, in order to ensure the security of the program, we should always use parameterized queries to prevent SQL injection attacks.
