Handling Multiple POST Requests in one PHP file or Separate

Question

I am new to PHP as you may be able to tell from the question. What I have is an iOS application that accesses a database via an apache server using a php front end. I have managed to get a user inserted into the database using a POST on a php script called NewUser.php The thing I am struggling with is how to organize the files and whether or not I need multiple php scripts for each query I want to run on the database or I am able to handle each different POST request in the same script? As I said I am new to the concept of PHP. If anyone could point me in the right direction to maybe a tutorial or give me some pointers on here that would be great!

Answer 1

yes, you can handle more type of POST requests in one script. For example script name is action.php and inside is code: switch ($_POST['action']) { case 'insert_user': // code for inserting new user break; case 'delete_user': // code for deleteing user break; // and so on ... } and when are you doing POST request you will have to add parameter action which one will indetify the correct action. POST /action.php HTTP/1.1 Some headers action=insert_user&name=John&surname=Doe....
