i'm using laravel 9, I got this error; foreach() argument must be of type array|object, null given
this my contoller:
foreach ($request->product_id as $key => $product_id) {
$invoice_item=new Invoice_Item();
$quantity=$request->quantity[$key];
$product_id=$request->product_id[$key];
$invoice_item->quantity=$quantity;
and this jquery in view: $('#addhere #div'+counter+' select').attr({'name':'product_id[]','id':'dynamic'+counter,'onchange':'fun(this)'}); $('#addhere #div'+counter+' input:nth-child(2)').attr({'id':'quantity'+counter,'onchange':'fun2(this)' ,'name':'quantity[]'}); $('#addhere #div'+counter+' input:nth-child(3)').attr('id','price'+counter); $('#addhere #div'+counter+' input:nth-child(4)').attr('id','vat'+counter); $('#addhere #div'+counter+' input:nth-child(5)').attr('id','rem'+counter);
It is difficult to read into your intentions from the unformatted code; but if product_id can be null, then you can set an empty array default in the Controller:
foreach ($request->input('product_id', []) as $key => $product_id)
What do you get if you add dd($request->product_id);. null? If you get an array, then the error is not in the code provided.
@Sinnbeck I got null
@Sinnbeck obviously it is null
foreach() argument must be of type array|object, null given
@tykus @Sinnbeck at this block I assigned to name =product_id[] and it's have value
$('#addhere #div'+counter+' select').attr({'name':'product_id[]','id':'dynamic'+counter,'onchange':'fun(this)'});
$('#addhere #div'+counter+' input:nth-child(2)').attr({'id':'quantity'+counter,'onchange':'fun2(this)' ,'name':'quantity[]'});

@MonaEid Is it the fun or fun2 function? In both you call it productID? I assume that is what you are using, and not a fom? And it seems to get the value of 1 item?
@Sinnbeck in those functions I use ajax and the problem is not here , it's in the first of script tag
@MonaEid that part doesn't do any server requests. Is there a form you aren't showing?
@Sinnbeck yes there is a form, and the ajax part is just for showing price
@MonaEid ok then check the rendered html after clicking add. Show us the rendered form with the appropriate attributes
F12 - > elements
<select class="form-control " name="product_id[]" id="dynamic1" onchange="fun(this)"><option value="1">coffe</option></select>
@MonaEid that does not look like a full form ?

@Sinnbeck I realized now the form tag was closed in browser(I don't know why), that is why the rest of code wasn't in the form
@MonaEid sounds like your elements aren't matched correctly. All elements needs to be closed in the right scope. If not the browser will try to guess
@Sinnbeck yes it's, the html not mine, and the project I should rebuild it.
@monaeid the only data in the Request payload is quantity and productID keys (depending on the function called)
{
data:{quantity: quantity, productID: productID},
}
How does product_id get into the Request payload?
If you dd($request->all()) what do you see?
@tykus the rest of html includes form and all data in the request payload accept product_id
so unhelpful
@foreach($category as $category);
<option value="{{$category->category_name}}">{{$category->category_name}}</option>
@endforeach
my code
i want to help with this also i get the same error : public function searchFacilities() { if (!isset($_GET['query'])) { // Handle the case when the 'query' parameter is missing $response = [ 'status' => 'Fail', 'error' => 'Missing query parameter' ]; header('Content-Type: application/json'); echo json_encode($response); return; }
