Hi,

I added the "dayOverview" dropdown list that needs to assign to the database, but when I test it, it is uneditable. How? Please check lines 51 and 164 - 176.

Inside there is the database table called attendance.sql. You need xampp and you must import the table (attendance.sql) in phpmyadmin.

index.php

<?php
# specify your table first
$mysql_db = 'attendance';
# include your db connection file
require 'connect-db.inc.php';
# if it makes it here, then the connection was successful.  Do your select * FROM $mysql_db
# AFTER the updates (see line 87) so that your page may reflect the updated information.
# this will be used to save any potential errors
$feedback=Array();
// Now there is student_id hidden field in the first column.  It should correspond to the unique id 
// record on your table.
if( array_key_exists('student_id',$_POST) )
{
    // Notice that the name of the hidden field is "student_id[]" (with brackets at the end).  This
    // way PHP "sees" an array of student_id fields.
    foreach($_POST['student_id'] as $id)
    {
        $id = intval($id);
        // The corresponding fields for a given row also have the student_id. So, instead of 
        // name="present", you now have name="present[X]" where X is the actual student_id for that
        // row.  If this is not clear, look at the browser's source code and you inspect one of the
        // rows.  Look at what's generated for student_id and how that field's value is 
        // "tied/related" to the other fields on that row.
        if(  array_key_exists('timeIn',$_POST) && array_key_exists('timeOut',$_POST) && array_key_exists('remarks',$_POST)  )
        {
            if (!empty($id))
            {
                // query to see if record exist on db
                $query = "SELECT COUNT(*) as `total` FROM `attendance` WHERE `id`=$id";
                $query_run = mysqli_query($link,$query);
                if(!$query_run)
