Answer 1

Where is the db_connect file please?
And is the ID of the table in Auto-Increment?
Something seems wrong with your last line. Are you using PDO or MYSQLI?
Here is an example of a query and a db_connect file in PHP using PDO method
The db connect :
<?php
$db_username = "root";
$db_password = "";
$db_host = "localhost";
$db_name = "veterinaires";
$db_options = array(PDO::MYSQL_ATTR_INIT_COMMAND => "SET NAMES utf8");
try {
$db = new PDO("mysql:host={$db_host};dbname={$db_name};charset=utf8", $db_username, $db_password, $db_options);
} catch(PDOException $ex) {
die("Failed to connect to the database: " . $ex->getMessage());
}
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_DEFAULT_FETCH_MODE, PDO::FETCH_ASSOC);
?>
Model for insert in DB
<?php
/* Basic function */
$query = "INSERT INTO users (
ID,
password,
email,
role
) VALUES (
:ID,
:password,
:email,
:role)";
// Security measures
$query_params = array(
':ID' => NULL,
':password' => $password,
':email' => $email,
':role' => 'vet');
try {
$stmt = $db->prepare($query);
$result = $stmt->execute($query_params);
$check = true;
}catch(PDOException $ex){
$errormsg = "Vous possédez déjà un compte!";
$check = false;
}
?>
