What are the implications of using multiple <form> tags within a PHP loop for processing form submissions and database updates?

Using multiple <form> tags within a PHP loop can lead to issues with form submissions and database updates because each form will have its own separate submission action, making it difficult to handle all the submissions at once. To solve this issue, you can assign unique identifiers to each form and use those identifiers to differentiate between form submissions in your PHP code. 

&lt;?php
for ($i = 0; $i &lt; 5; $i++) {
    echo &quot;&lt;form method=&#039;post&#039; action=&#039;process_form.php&#039;&gt;&quot;;
    echo &quot;&lt;input type=&#039;hidden&#039; name=&#039;form_id&#039; value=&#039;$i&#039;&gt;&quot;;
    // Other form fields
    echo &quot;&lt;input type=&#039;submit&#039; value=&#039;Submit Form&#039;&gt;&quot;;
    echo &quot;&lt;/form&gt;&quot;;
}
?&gt;
