PHP CODE TO UPDATE MULTIPLE ROWS OF A TABLE IN MySQL DATABASE

<?php
// Update values we got from somewhere
$update_values = Array(
'1034786' => Array('column1' => 0, 'column2' => NULL, 'column3'=> 'Text One'),
'1037099' => Array('column1' => 0, 'column2' => 1034789 , 'column3'=> 'Text
Two'),
'1034789' => Array('column1' => 3, 'column2' => 1034789 , 'column3'=> 'Text
Three')
);

// Start of the query

$update_query = "UPDATE `table` SET ";

// Columns we will be updating

$columns = Array('column1' => '`column1` = CASE ', 'column2' => '`column2` =
CASE ', 'column3' => '`column3` = CASE ');

// Build up each columns CASE statement

foreach($update_values as $id => $values){
$columns['column1'] .= "WHEN `id`='" . mysql_real_escape_string($id) . "' THEN
'" . mysql_real_escape_string($values['column1']) . "' ";
$columns['column2'] .= "WHEN `id`='" . mysql_real_escape_string($id) . "' THEN "
. ($values['column2'] === NULL ? "NULL" :
"'".mysql_real_escape_string($values['column1'])."'") . " ";
$columns['column3'] .= "WHEN `id`='" . mysql_real_escape_string($id) . "' THEN
'" . mysql_real_escape_string($values['column3']) . "' ";
}

// Add a default case, here we are going to use whatever value was already in the
field
foreach($columns as $column_name => $query_part){
$columns[$column_name] .= " ELSE `$column_name` END ";
}

// Build the WHERE part. Since we keyed our update_values off the database keys,
this is pretty easy
$where = " WHERE `id`='" . implode("' OR `id`='", array_keys($update_values)) .
"'";

// Join the statements with commas, then run the query

$update_query .= implode(', ',$columns) . $where;
mysql_query($update_query) or die(mysql_error());
