Form Submits but Doesn't Save Into Database

Hi.  I need some help please.  I'm still new to all this coding and have been at a road block for the past few days trying to figure this out.  Here's my problem:

 

I have created a form for my customer to use to submit orders.  It is nothing complex, basically when the form has been filled out and the submit button pressed, the following should occur:

 

1. Information is loaded into a SQL database created through phpmyadmin

2. Generate a generic text file with the form results and email this to me.  Please note that the text file is given an order # based on the next available order number in the database

3. A confirmation page is shown confirming the order has been placed and shows the order # given to the order

 

For some reason, I'm not able to get the information submitted to stay into the database.  When the submit button is pressed, the information is loaded into the database and the text file is created successfully and emailed to me.  I receive the email fine and all the requested data is in it.  However, once this process is completed, the information disappears from the database and instead of going to the confirmation page it goes back to an empty form ready for another order to be placed.

 

Any ideas of what this could be?  Below is my code. (some of the information changed to hide customer information)  I would appreciate any help on this.  Thanks.

Remove the error suppression: @

 

Next you need to return any errors that the database is sending.

$result = mysql_query($query) or trigger_error(mysql_error());

Additionally, this code will not work very long, as mysql has been depreciated and is slated for removal.  You should change over to the PDO or mysqli classes, in order to avoid future downtime.

 

 



mysql_query

(PHP 4, PHP 5)

mysql_query — Send a MySQL query


Warning

This extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. See also MySQL: choosing an API guide and related FAQ for more information. Alternatives to this function include:
