A previous script correctly creates a record and INSERTS the user name and password. However, when I run the following script, the username and the first_name are displayed correctly but the first_name is not UPDATED in the record. Why? <?php // file: "root/reg/add_4.php", updated: 09/29/01 $connection=@mysql_connect("localhost","afr","xxx") or die ("No connection!"); $db=@mysql_select_db("sbwresearch",$connection) or die ("No database!"); // to see if parameters are being passed to this script echo "Ok!"; echo "<br>"; echo "$username"; echo "<br>"; echo "$first_name"; $qry="update cust_info set first_name=$first_name where username=$username"; $result=@mysql_query($qry,$connection); @mysql_free_result($result); @mysql_close($connection); // header ("location:add_5.htm"); exit; ?> Thank! Tony
