pengu Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Do some basic trouble shooting, see if there is any data in the variables. With $_GET & $_POST I've always done them with ' & '. So for example $_POST['hello']. But I don't think this matters.. Try the following code to see if anything is being printed. $DBhost ="localhost"; //mysql-server $DBuser = "root"; //mysqluser $DBpass = "123"; $DBName = "learnphp"; $table = "information"; echo $_POST['id']. "<br />"; echo $_POST['name']. "<br />"; echo $_POST['email']. "<br />"; echo $_POST['opinion']. "<br />"; //mysql_connect($DBhost,$DBuser,$DBpass) or die("error"); //mysql_select_db("$DBName") or die("error"); //$sqlquery = "INSERT INTO $table VALUES ('$_POST[id]','$_POST[name]','$_POST[email]','$_POST[opinion]')"; //$results=mysql_query($sqlquery); //mysql_close(); //echo "<html><titile>PHP and mysql</title><body><p><center>you just enter this information into the database //<p><blockquote>"; //print "Name:$_POST[name]<p>E-mail:$_POST[email]<p>opinion:$_POST[opinion]</blockquote></center>"; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/205710-why-cant-insert-data-into-the-database-table/#findComment-1076464 Share on other sites More sharing options...

wee493 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 there is no any output,why? This is because the variables are not being posted to your script. Are u meaning to use $_GET ?
