I have some php code that's supposed to execute a mysql statement to update an already existing record.  I can't figure out why it doesn't update.  Here's the bit of code.

 

The Form:

echo "<form method=\"post\" action=\"edit2.php\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\">
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"MAX_FILE_SIZE\" value=\"100000\">
<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"id\" value\"$id\">
<tr><td>Image</td><td></td><td><img src=\"$dir\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Upload New Image</td><td></td><td><input type=\"file\" name=\"file\" id=\"file\"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Type</td><td></td><td><input type=\"text\" name=\"type\" value=\"$type\"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Name</td><td></td><td><input type=\"text\" name=\"product_name\" value=\"$product_name\"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Price</td><td>\$</td><td><input type=\"text\" name=\"price\" value=\"$price\"></td></tr>
<tr><td>Description</td><td></td><td><input type=\"text\" name=\"description\" value=\"$description\"></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan=\"3\"><center><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\"></td></tr></form>";

 

 

The update:

<?php
include('./inc/session.php');

$id=$_POST['id'];
$type=$_POST['type'];
$product_name=$_POST['product_name'];
$price=$_POST['price'];
$description=$_POST['description'];

include('./inc/connect.php');
$sql="UPDATE products SET type='$type', product_name='$product_name', price='$price', description='$description' WHERE id='$id'";
$result=mysql_query($sql)or die(mysql_error());
mysql_close();
echo "Updated";
?>

Do you recieve an mysql_error? If so, what error is it. You might also want to consider using mysql_real_escape_string for all values going into the query.

 

I don't get any errors, nothing gets updated though.  I'll check out the mysql_real_escape_string and see if that fixes anything.  In the mean time, any other help would be great.
