How to run the bind_param() statement in PHP?

Question

I\'m trying to make the following code work but I can\'t reach the execute() line.

$mysqli = $this->C

When binding parameters you need to pass a variable that is used as a reference:

$var = 1;

$stmt->bind_param('i', $var);

See the manual: http://php.net/manual/en/mysqli-stmt.bind-param.php

Note that $var doesn't actually have to be defined to bind it. The following is perfectly valid:

$stmt->bind_param('i', $var);

foreach ($array as $element)
{

    $var = $element['foo'];

    $stmt->execute();

}
