Im testing new codes/scripts. and ive had this problem before, but it just started working without intervention i think... but why is it that when i try and write to a DB in mysql does it never work - first time up.

ive walked through [a href=\"http://www.thescripts.com/serversidescripting/php/tutorials/developaphpuserpersonalizationsystem/index.html\" target=\"_blank\"]this[/a] and tried to register, and it says:

[code]You have successfully registered with:

Username:
Password:[/code]

after username you would expect it to Echo the username ive registered, and password the same. but nothing, and it hasnt written to the DB...

this has puzzled me before, but i ignored it... but its back again.. why?

sounds like you have an error in 1 of your querys.. after each query use this OR die('$result'.mysql_error());

so if you have
$result=mysql_query($query);

change it to
$result=mysql_query($query) OR die('$result'.mysql_error());

Just use this as diagnosis so change die('$result'.mysql_error()); to die('$result2'.mysql_error()); for the second set or results and so on then yopu will know at which query the error is..

they can be grabbed all together in a rar -> [a href=\"http://www.vini.co.uk/testing/testing.rar\" target=\"_blank\"]here[/a]

or viewed as textualisation files (.txt :D) -> [a href=\"http://www.vini.co.uk/testing\" target=\"_blank\"]here[/a]
