shocker-z Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Instead of[code]$add_all = 'INSERT INTO `news` (`title`, `news`) VALUES (\'$titles\', \'$new\')';[/code]use[code]$add_all = "INSERT INTO `news` (`title`, `news`) VALUES ('$titles', '$new')";[/code]And thats it :) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/4914-data-form-info-into-database/#findComment-17322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
