Can anyone see a problem in this? When i run the script i am getting this
error "Notice: Undefined variable: action in
C:\www\Apache2\htdocs\user_poll\2\addpoll.php on line 13"
<?
// addpoll.php
// Case Study 1: User Poll - Foundation PHP for Flash
// If the form has been submitted...
(line 13) if ($action == "add") {
// Include config file
include('common.php');
// Connect to database
$link = dbConnect();
// Get date for new poll
$posted = time();
// Build query to insert new poll
$query = "INSERT INTO polls (question, option1, option2, option3,
posted)
VALUES('$question', '$option1', '$option2',
'$option3',
$posted)";
// Execute query
$result = @mysql_query($query);
// If query failed...
if (!$result) {
// Display error
print "<font color=\"#ff0000\">Could not insert
poll</font><br>\n";
} else {
print "<font color=\"#0000ff\">Poll
added</font><br>\n";
}
mysql_close($link);
