RE: [PHP] can anyone explain this error ?

gents, thanks. I have been working hard on this php thing for a couple of days now from setup to starting development. Today a couple of "glitches" have slipped past me. I think I am tired and been working on this for too long with out a break. thanks for pointing out the errors. Out of interest does this error normally mean this error or did you gather this from counting the code.

Basically you're trying to add more values into the table than columns specified. You have 22 values and only 20 columns specified in your $query. Rick "Finish each day and be done with it.
