Hi People.

 

Thanks to everyone that helped me yesterday with my file that finally connected to the database.

 

However, I have added a new field to my DB and now get further problems. 

 

Here is the error message I am getting after I added the "ppr" stuff to both files.

 

Please could someone look at my code and tell me where I'm going wrong.

<body>
<?php include "config01.php"?>

<form name = 'form1' method = 'post' action='config01.php'>
<table width="700" border="1" cellspacing="5" cellpadding="5">
  <caption>
    Submit Your Airfield Details
  </caption>
  <tr>
    <td width="100"> </td>
    <td width="200">Your Name</td>
    <td width="200"><input type='text' name='username' maxlength='30'></td>
    <td width="100"> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td> </td>
    <td>Height Above MSL</td>
    <td><input type='text' name='height_above'maxlength= '30'></td>
    <td> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td> </td>
    <td>Mb Difference</td>
    <td><input type='text' name='mb_diff'maxlength='40'></td>
    <td> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td> </td>
    <td>Alternative Airfield</td>
    <td><input type='text' name='alternative' maxlength='30'></td>
    <td> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td> </td>
    <td>PPR</td>
    <td><input type='radio' name='ppr' value="Y"/>
    Yes
      <input type='radio' name='ppr' value="N" />
      No</td>
    <td> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><input type='submit' name='submit' value='post' /></td>
    <td> </td>
    <td> </td>
    <td> </td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>


</body>
</html>

 

Then the code from config01.php

<?php
$host = 'localhost';
$usr = "VinnyG";
$password = 'thepassword';
$db_name = 'sitename';

$username = $_POST["username"];
$height_above = $_POST["height_above"];
$mb_diff = $_POST["mb_diff"];
$alternative = $_POST["alternative"];
$ppr = $_POST["ppr"];

//connect to database
mysql_connect ("$host","$usr","$password") or die ('Error During Connect:<br>'.mysql_error());
mysql_select_db ("$db_name") or die ('Error Selecting DB:<br>'.mysql_error());

/*
$sql01 = "INSERT INTO users SET username = '$username',height_above = '$height_above', mb_diff = $mb_diff, alternative = $alternative";
$result=mysql_query($sql01);
*/
//mysql_query("INSERT INTO users VALUES ('$username','$height_above','$mb_diff','$alternative')");
//mysql_query("INSERT INTO users (username, height_above, mb_diff, alternative) VALUES ('$username', '$height_above', '$mb_diff', '$alternative'"); 
//$insert_query = "INSERT INTO users (username, height_above, mb_diff, alternative) VALUES ('$username', '$height_above', '$mb_diff', '$alternative')";
//$insert_action = mysql_query($insert_query) or die ('Error Dring Insert :<br>'.mysql_error().'<br><br>Error occured running the following code :<br>'.$insert_query);

//mysql_query("INSERT INTO users VALUES ('$username','$height_above','$mb_diff','$alternative')"); CHANGES FOLLOW THIS LINE . . 
$query = "INSERT INTO users (username, height_above, mb_diff, alternative, ppr) VALUES ('$username', '$height_above', '$mb_diff', '$alternative', '$ppr'";
if( !$result = mysql_query($query) ) {
     echo "<br>Query: $query<br>Produced error: " . mysql_error() .'<br>';
} else {
     echo "Query ran and inserted " . mysql_affected_rows() . "row(s).";
}
?>

 

I only added the one thing and I've gone and broken it already.  It was working last night too.. :-(

Hi Muddy_Funster

 

Sorry I don't know what you mean about closing the braces round the INSERT values.  everywhere I've got a ( I've got a corresponding ) as far as I can see.  Sorry for being STUPID. 

 

All I have inserted is the "ppr" into the form which it two radio buttons for "Y" and "N" and then into the various places in the config01.php file.

 

If you load the files and do a search for "ppr" then that's what I've inserted.

 

Thanks for you help.
