In this site, I want the user to have the ability to give as input as many "parts" as he likes (along with other info, like category, value). This is what i have so far:

<?php
if(!isset($_SESSION)){
session_start();
}
?>

input[type="text"],
select{
    padding:5px;
}
  </style>

<script type='text/javascript'>
var newItemNo;
var app = angular.module('angularjs-starter', []);
  app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope) {
  $scope.choices = [{id: 'choice1'}, {id: 'choice2'}];  
  $scope.addNewChoice = function() {
    var newItemNo = $scope.choices.length+1;
    $scope.choices.push({'id':'choice'+newItemNo});
  };    
  $scope.removeChoice = function(index) {   
    $scope.choices.splice(index, 1);
  };
});
</script>  
</head>

<body>
    <div ng-app="angularjs-starter" ng-controller="MainCtrl">
        <fieldset  data-ng-repeat="choice in choices">
        <tr><td><select name="category" id="category">
            <optgroup label="Categories">
            <option value="1" name="Hardware">Hardware</option>
            <option value="2" name="network">Network</option>
            <option value="3" name="Software">Software</option>
            </optgroup>
        </select></td>
        <td><input type="text" name="name" id="name" placeholder="Asset Name"></td>
        <td><select name="value" id="value">
            <optgroup label="Part Value">
            <option value="1">1</option>
            <option value="2">2</option>
            <option value="3">3</option>
            </optgroup>
        </select></td>
        <button class="remove" ng-click="removeChoice($index)">-</button>
        <button class="addfields" ng-click="addNewChoice()">+</button>
        </fieldset>
      <button onclick="addPart()">Submit</button> //the submit javascript function to be created, or php alternative    
    </div>

</body>

</html> 

and appears like this

The problem is that i don't know the "name" of the newly added forms, nor how many forms have been added by the user in total. So, how can the input of these forms be saved in an sql db with a table named "assets" containing the columns "category", "name" and "value"?

you havent any <form> in your code. Use ajax to send the values to another file and later save the values in the database – Rafael Shkembi 14 mins ago
