BrianM Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 My database was updating just fine when I was using '<input type='text' />' but I noticed after changing it to a <textarea> instead, It wont insert my report. ??? Here is the code: <?php function report_create() { echo("<form action=\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?table=".$_GET['table']."&project_name=".$_GET['project_name']."&report=create\" method=\"post\">"); echo("<b><font size=\"2px\" face=\"Verdana\">Create report:<br /></font></b><textarea cols=\"40\" rows=\"7\" name=\"report_\"></textarea><br /><input type=\"submit\" name=\"report_create\" value=\"Create\" />"); echo("</form>"); } if (isset($_POST['report_create'])) { mysql_connect('localhost', 'brian', '') or die(mysql_error()); mysql_select_db('reports') or die(mysql_error()); mysql_query("INSERT INTO `$table` (date, report) VALUES ('".date("m-d-y")."', '".$_POST['report_']."')"); echo "<script> window.location.href = ''; </script>"; exit; } ?> I kept all field names the same, as you can see. So I'm not sure why it wont work and I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direction.

pquery Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 I would first just trying your SQL statment in something like phpMyadmin (of course subsutiting variables for somewhat real values) to make sure there isn't an error in your sql statement if you're not getting a die statement that sounds like where the problem is lying Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/109983-database-wont-update/#findComment-564385 Share on other sites More sharing options...
