[SOLVED] Very weird.

Hey guys, this is starting to get on my nerves now..

 

Bascially i have a submit form. Im doing everything right to submit my data.. well at least i think i am.

 

Snipplets of code

 

<input type="text" name="comment_coverageid" value="<?php echo $coverage_id ?>"><textarea name="comment_body" rows="6" cols="55" onclick=javascript:storeCaret(this); onchange=javascript:storeCaret(this); onselect=javascript:storeCaret(this); value="<?php if (isset($_POST['comment_body'])) echo $_POST['comment_body']; ?>"></textarea>

`coverage_id` displays a number, which works fine.

`comment_body` you have to input your comment.

 

Now for the submitting.

 

$query = "INSERT INTO `coverage_comments` 
          (
           comment_id, 
           comment_teamid, 
           comment_coverageid,  
           comment_date, 
           comment_author, 
           comment_body
      )";

        $query .= " VALUES 
          (
           'NULL',
           '$team_url',
           '$coverage_id',
           NOW(),
           '".$HTTP_SESSION_VARS['valid_user']."',
	   '$comment_body'
           )";

 

Everything but `coverage_id` submits perfectly, but i dont understand why when the form shows the number inside the box, everything is named how it should be :S

 

Very confusing.

 

Any ideas guys?

 

Thanks

Try writing the name instead

 

name="comment_coverageid"

[therealwesfoster]

First off, <TEXTAREA> doesn't accept a VALUE attribute.. change it to this:

 

<input type="text" name="comment_coverageid" value="<?php echo $coverage_id ?>"><textarea name="comment_body" rows="6" cols="55" onclick=javascript:storeCaret(this); onchange=javascript:storeCaret(this); onselect=javascript:storeCaret(this);><?php if (isset($_POST['comment_body'])) echo $_POST['comment_body']; ?></textarea>

 

And for the other, try echoing coverage_id by itself and see what it shows

I am new 2 but could the underscore be the problem?

comment_coverageid,

coverage_id

Wesf90, ive changed the textarea bit.

 

When i eco coverage_by itself it shows my what the coverag_id is. Wether it be 1,2,3 etc. But it just doesnt submit into the database but everthing else does :S

Nah its not the underscore mate, thanks anyways

No, you are writing the wrong variable unless you have a setting like

 

$coverage_id = $_POST['comment_coverageid']; somewhere
