crag Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 Hi. I am a newbie to php mysql and I hope you can help me with this small problem.I have 2 tables one named bandname with ID, bandname and contactIDa 2nd table named contactinfo with ID, name, tel, email.The data for inserting into the tables is taken from a form.->I firstly insert the contactinfo data into its table ->then i assign the bandname ID to a variable (contactid) using mysql_insert_id()->then i insert the bandname and contactid into bandname table.My problem is this:When I submit the form data my code inserts the first record fine but when I try to submit a second record it inserts 3 records. 1 record that is fine and another two that are a mix of the two correct records.if(isset($_POST['name'])) { $name = $_POST['name']; $tel = $_POST['tel']; $email = $_POST['email']; $sql1 = "INSERT INTO contactinfo SET name = '$name', tel = '$tel', email = '$email'"; if(isset($_POST['bandname'])) { $bandname = $_POST['bandname']; $contactid = mysql_insert_id(); $sql2 = "INSERT INTO bandname SET bandname = '$bandname', contactid = '$contactid'"; if((@mysql_query($sql1) && (@mysql_query($sql2)) { echo '<p>The contact info has been added to the database</p>'; } else { echo '<p>Error submitting contact info: ' . mysql_error() . '</p>'; } }}Can anyone please tell me what is wrong heresorry I didn't use a code tag.[code]if(isset($_POST['name'])) { $name = $_POST['name']; $tel = $_POST['tel']; $email = $_POST['email']; $sql1 = "INSERT INTO contactinfo SET name = '$name', tel = '$tel', email = '$email'"; if(isset($_POST['bandname'])) { $bandname = $_POST['bandname']; $contactid = mysql_insert_id(); $sql2 = "INSERT INTO bandname SET bandname = '$bandname', contactid = '$contactid'"; if((@mysql_query($sql1) && (@mysql_query($sql2)) { echo '<p>The band name has been added to the database</p>'; } else { echo '<p>Error submitting band name: ' . mysql_error() .
