insert data to mysql

Hello, I am just wondering if someone can help me out with this. This is what I have so far, but it isnt working: MYSQL_CONNECT($hostname, $username, $password) or die("Unable to connect to database"); @mysql_select_db( "$dbName") or die( "Unable to select database"); $sql = "INSERT INTO $userstable (client, contact, email, address, city, state, zip, phone, fax, model, country, details, type) VALUES("$client", "$contact", "$email", "$address", "$city", "$state", "$zip", "$phone", "$fax", "$model", "$country", "$details", "$type")"; $result = MYSQL_QUERY($sql) or die ("Couldn't execute query"); MYSQL_CLOSE(); Im new (no kidding?), so i hope this is easy, also, is there a address anyone can point me to for a archive of this list? Thanks in advance, Shawn
