I can’t approve or cancel the order if there’s only one order inserted in my database

When there is only one order present in my database, the “Approve” and “Cancel” buttons do not function as expected. However, if there are multiple orders in the database, these buttons work properly

java script

function fetchOrders(status) {
    const xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
    xhr.open('POST', 'fetch_pending_orders.php', true);
    xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
    xhr.onload = function() {
      if (xhr.status === 200) {
        // Insert fetched orders as cards into the orderCards container
        document.getElementById('orderCards').innerHTML = xhr.responseText;
      }
    };
    xhr.send('product_status=' + status);
  }

back end

$status = $_POST['product_status'] ?? 'Pending';

if ($status == 'all') {
    $sql = "SELECT *,
               IF(product_status IS NULL OR product_status = '', 'Pending', product_status) AS computed_status

    $stmt = $db->prepare($sql);

Even if there is only one order present in the database, I expect the “Approve” and “Cancel” buttons to function correctly, just as they do when multiple orders are present.
