Does not post

[rdkd1970]

Okay I had a trial form that always added to my db now I copied the same codes just added it to my site and does not post anything. Can someone tell me why it is not working now after so many trials of success. When nothing has changed but the added information like pictures and normal things on my pages.

 

It is supposed to go to my registration-success.php but it just picks up the connecting php to insert to the db and leaves it blank.

it worked locally but not on the live site? check the connection details

sounds like it could be a pathing error

I put the code and this is what shows up after I add information to the form.

All my connections are correct nothing changed I test live with the codes and now I added my same codes that I test live to my index page that has the same form info but with the designs. When I tested the codes that worked it was just the form and the php info that connected to the db and inserted etc.

session_start();

$garbage = 'just some bs <ul><li>text</li><li>text</li><li>text</li></ul>just some more bs';
preg_match_all('/<ul>(.*?)<\/ul>/i', $garbage, $matches);
echo $matches[0][0];

    if($err==''){

      if($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_check)){

      }
      else{

   				maritalStatus,children,wantChildren,ethnic,education,country,bestfriend) 
                    values ('".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["username"])."','".md5($_POST["password"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["firstname"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["lastname"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["email"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["gender"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["looking_for"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["birth_date"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["maritalStatus"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["children"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["wantChildren"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["ethnic"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["education"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["country"])."','".mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["bestfriend"])."')")
				or die (mysql_error());
$id = mysql_insert_id();
$userid = mysql_insert_id();
$_SESSION['id']= $userid; 

       // redirecting to success screen
   if($results){
         header("Location: register-success.php");
}else
die(mysql_error());

      }
    }
  }

 

The rest is the form and the html info. which is how it is gone crazy i guess.

So what happens exactly? Is an entry entered into the database? Blank page? Nothing happening

[rdkd1970]

I entered into the form. I have the form going to the register.php which if successful will go to register-success.php. It goes to register.php and does nothing does not add to the db.

 

I used the same coding with a form only and got the results I needed it went to success then let me go to login to the profile page.

 

Now it just stops at register.php with a blank page.

[rdkd1970]

You know what I did. I just deleted the login form which I had on my index.php with the registration form put in a link to login. Ran the codes for the registration page on index.php and got it to work. so that means for some reason the confusion is with the two forms on the same page. Thanks for all the help.
