I echoed out the $update_contact_sql and I'm getting
FirstName='Value', etc. WHERE ContactID=''
There is no value in ContactID. I've changed the double quotes to single
quotes and dropped the quotes all together with $ContactID. I ran the query
in MySQL client and gave the ContactID a value which worked fine. I'm not
sure why the query string is not passing the value.
