PHP Mysql radio buttons selection

Can someone help me please, I am trying to implement a simple php MySQL survey, but I am stuck on this, how do I store the specific selection in MySQL that users select.

How satisfied are you:

<table id="table1" rules="all" border="1" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0" width="70%">
    <colgroup width="70%"></colgroup>
    <colgroup width="6%">
    </colgroup>
    <thead>
        <tr align="center">
           <th></th>
           <th font="" style="font-size:9pt;" size="2"><b>Dissatisfied</b></th>
           <th font="" style="font-size:9pt;" size="2"><b>Satisfied</b></th>
           <th font="" style="font-size:9pt;" size="2"><b>Very Satisfied</b></th> 
        </tr>
   </thead>
   <tbody>
       <tr align="center">
           <td align="left"><font style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Technician's ability to understand the unique nature of your problem?</b></font></td>
           <td><input name="satisfaction" value="Dissatisfied"  type="radio"></td>
           <td><input name="satisfaction" value="Satisfied"  type="radio"></td>
           <td><input name="satisfaction" value="Very Satisfied"  type="radio"></td>

       </tr>
       <tr align="center">
   </tbody>
</table>

As simple as :

1st, Add this line before the table tag:

<form method="post" action="">

2nd, this one at the end of your code:

<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Then you can have this code for inserting in the DB.

if ($stmt = $mysqli->prepare("INSERT INTO TABLENAME(COLUMN NAME) values (?)")) {
     $stmt->bind_param('s', $satisfaction);


    $satisfaction=$_POST['satisfaction'];

     $stmt->execute();

    $stmt->close();
}

for this what you need will need a form to submit data selection. You will need two php files

The first one is to built a form of radio buttons. I had removed table's elements for neat view then we set the URL of the second page .Can also be a single page if you want but this is more easier.

feedback.php

 <form action="add.php" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
     <input name="satisfaction" value="Dissatisfied"  type="radio">Dissatisfied<br>
     <input name="satisfaction" value="Satisfied"  type="radio">Satisfied<br>
     <input name="satisfaction" value="Very Satisfied"  type="radio">Very Satisfied<br>

     <input type='submit' value="submit">
</form>

In the second page we catch what we had posted from first page.

add.php

  $result= $_POST['satisfaction'];
  echo $result;

using $result to store in your database. Good luck
