Digitry Designs Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Ok so I am trying to send information from a form to a data base. I keeps giving me an error, to be specific, the error for querying the database. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance. <?php $name = $_POST['name']; $organization = $_POST['organization']; $phone = $_POST['phone']; $email = $_POST['email']; $description = $_POST['description']; $dbc = mysqli_connect('localhost', 'root', 'password', 'my_database') or die('We are sorry, due to extensive server overload we were unable to process your mail.'); $query = "INSERT INTO mail (name, organization, phone, email, description) " . "VALUES ('$name', '$organization', '$phone', '$email', '$description')"; $result = mysqli_query($dbc,$query) or die('We are sorry, your email could not be sent at this time. Please try again in a few minutes'); mysqli_close($dbc); echo '<meta HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" content="0; url=../admin/digitrycms_panel.php">'; ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
