virtuexru Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Try <form action="" .. I usually do that, it just reloads the page and runs the script in the header. Of course then you'll have to do if() to find out whether or not the fields have been filled out to decide whether or not to put things into the DB.

papaface Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 First of all: $connection = @mysql_connect should be: $connection = mysql_connect and <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER[php_SELF]; ?>" should be: <form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/44664-problem-in-php-guestbook/#findComment-216875 Share on other sites More sharing options...
