Validation and sanatizing is my next quest :-) I got it, thanks to everyone pointing me in the right direction. It has been a while since I've written any PHP code and I started last week just to freshen up and try and learn more. I guess the last time I had written any forms, register_globals was on. (Long time!) LOL anyway I changed my code to this: Cut it down to just 1 row & snipped the other stuff. :-) mysql_query ("INSERT INTO inventory(image)VALUES('$_POST[image]')"); Thanks for pointing me in the right direction I appreciate it.
