Can't update DB

Okay, so here's my problem. I have a table that lets a user change form settings that reflect those changes as CSS.  My database has 1 field for each css option on the form. When I click save, nothing is passed to the database. However, if I change:

if($_COOKIE['save'] == "yes"){
$pc_bgc = Hello;
}

"Hello" will be passed to the DB. I don't understand why this won't work anymore. During testing with my initial 20 css options everything worked relatively fine. I finalized the form today and it has approximately 133 options which means 133 possible POST variables. Is it possible I am posting too much data at once?

Just a shot in the dark here, but maybe it doesn't like $_POST. Try switching it to $_REQUEST and see if that makes a difference.
