Sorry, I am LD. I do have the <? echo ?> in my code. The leads_id is an autonumber, it the primary key for the table. What do the .$field. gives you over $field? Also another LD mistake, addlead.php is addlead.php. I will try it. Payne Chris Sherwood wrote:
Hi Payne for starters your missing an ? at the last echo <? echo $l_name> secondly I would rewrite the sql statement to read $sql = "INSERT INTO $table_name
        (leads_id, title, f_name, l_name)
        VALUES
        (' ".$leads_id." ', ' ".$title." ', ' ".$f_name." ', ' ".$l_name."
');"; but the statement itself shouldnt cause a problem either way. I am wondering where leads_id comes from however.. is it an auto number? and finally your processing form is called addlead.php and the form is posting to a form called addleads.php hope this helps chris <-- snip --> From: "Payne" <payne@magidesign.com>
I am working a form to pass information from it to mysql data. I am able to connect to the database. But nothing is being pass from the form to the php page. This is my php code... ---------------------form.html--------------------------------------------
--------
<html> <head> <title>Untitled</title> </style> </head> <body> <form name="form1" method="post" action="addlead.php"> <input name="title" type="text" size="40"> <input name="f_name" type="text" size="40"> <input name="l_name" type="text" size="40"> <input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit Information"> </form> </body> </html> --------------------------addlead.php------------------------------------
------
<? include("./config.php"); $sql = "INSERT INTO $table_name
       (leads_id, title, f_name, l_name)
       VALUES
       ('$leads_id', \"$title\", \"$f_name\", \"$l_name\")";
//debug tool print $sql; $result = mysql_query($sql, $connection) or die ("Couldn't execute query."); ?> <html> <head> <title>Untitled</title> </style> </head> <body> <? echo $title ?> <br> <? echo $f_name ?> <br> <? echo $l_name?> --------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------
What I am getting this.... INSERT INTO leads (leads_id, title, f_name, l_name) VALUES ('', "", "",
"")
*Salutation* *First Name* *Last Name*
