If you read to part 2 of the tutorial it has quite a bit on inserting data. The reason there are tutorials and books are to teach the *concepts* behind what they are showing you. This is probably what is tripping you up; you create the table with uid as an integer, auto increment, not null field, then your insert statement tries to insert "NULL" into that field. You need to change this: $query = "INSERT INTO users (uid, name) VALUES(NULL, $name)"; To this: $query = "INSERT INTO users (name) VALUES ($name)"; Robert On 2/5/02 10:46 AM, "Jennifer Downey" <jendowney@attbi.com> wrote: > I am not getting an error message.
