I have the code for inserting data to a database form a form (Code below) but I want the data to be entered upon a page loading, how would I do this?

 

<?php require_once('Connections/connect.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
{
  $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

  $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

  switch ($theType) {
    case "text":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;    
    case "long":
    case "int":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
      break;
    case "double":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "date":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
      break;
    case "defined":
      $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
      break;
  }
  return $theValue;
}
}

$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
  $editFormAction .= "?" . htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
}

if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {
  $insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO members (username, last_date) VALUES (%s, %s)",
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['username'], "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString($_POST['last_date'], "text"));

  mysql_select_db($database_connect, $connect);
  $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $connect) or die(mysql_error());

  $insertGoTo = "index2.php";
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
  }
  header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}

Not tested, could be some syntax errors:

<?php

require_once('Connections/connect.php');

if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
  function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "") 
  {
    $theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  
    $theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
  
    switch ($theType) {
      case "text":
        $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
        break;    
      case "long":
      case "int":
        $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
        break;
      case "double":
        $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
        break;
      case "date":
        $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
        break;
      case "defined":
        $theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
        break;
    }
    return $theValue;
  }
}



$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO members (username, last_date) VALUES (%s, %s)",
                       GetSQLValueString(session_MM_Username, "text"),
                       GetSQLValueString(date("j, n, Y"), "text"));


mysql_select_db($database_connect, $connect);
$Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $connect) or die(mysql_error());

  $insertGoTo = "index2.php";
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
  }
  header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}

?>
