The variable $choosen isn't getting the data from the form for some reason.

 

<?php session_start(); ?>
<style>
a {
color:black;
font-weight:bold;
}

holder {
width:600px;
}

table {
width:600px;
}
</style>
<?php
session_start();
$session = $_SESSION['user'];

mysql_connect($mysql_host, $mysql_user, $mysql_password);
mysql_select_db($mysql_database);

if(!$session)
{
	echo "Sorry, you must be logged in to access this page!";
}
else
{
	$topic_title = $_POST['title'];
	$topic_message = $_POST['message'];
	$choosen = $_POST['select'];
	$topic_title = mysql_real_escape_string($topic_title);
	$topic_message = mysql_real_escape_string($topic_message);
	$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
	$date = date("M-D-Y");

if(!$topic_title || !$topic_message || !$choosen)
{
	echo "<center><div class='holder'><table border='1'><tr><td><center><form action='topic.php' method='POST'>Category:";
	echo "<select name='select'>";
	$sql = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM categories");
	while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql))
	{
		echo "<option value='". $row['id'] ."'>". $row['name'] ."</option>";
	}
	echo "</select>";
	echo "<br/><br/>Thread Title: <input type='text' name='title' maxlength='20'><br/><br/>Message: <br/><textarea name='message' rows='20' cols='35' maxlength='3000'></textarea><br/><br/><input type='submit' value='Post Thread'></form></center> <br/></td></tr></table></div></center>";
}
elseif(strlen($topic_message) <= 15) 
{
	echo "<center><div class='holder'><table border='1'><tr><td><center>Sorry, you must have at least 15 characters in your topic message! <a href='topic.php'>Back</a></center> <br/></td></tr></table></div></center>";
}
else
{
  mysql_query("INSERT INTO topics VALUES ('', '$ip', '$date', '$session', '', '$topic_title', '$topic_message', '0')");
	$id = mysql_insert_id();
  mysql_query("INSERT INTO category_holder VALUES ('$choosen', '$id')");
	echo $category;
	mysql_query("UPDATE users SET postcount = postcount + 1 WHERE username='$session'");
	echo "<center><div class='holder'><table border='1'><tr><td><center>Posted! <a href='index.php'>Go home</a></center> <br/></td></tr></table></div></center>";
}
}

?>

Its "Chosen", just for reference :P.

 

	$sql = mysql_query("SELECT name FROM categories");
	while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($sql))
	{
		echo "<option value='". $row['id'] ."'>". $row['name'] ."</option>";
	}

 

You are only selecting "name" from the table, "id" wont be in the result array.
