where's the form, maybe the problem is there. your update query has no where
statment, this isnt syntaxicaly incorrect, its just rare that you need to
update every single element in the database to the same value. everything
else looks ok, what exactly is the error/warning ? you dont accually need
the $conn in mysql_query() and die() is just nasty, I like a little bit more
friendly user errors. I also like to shorten things by putting the
mysql_query in the if() statement
if ( !mysql_query($sql) )
