not doin math right!

[TimUSA]

sorry for the double post, can this please be deleted in the math board?

When this submits to the database, it is not calculating $points correctly???

 

// CONFIGURATION SECTION
$times = $_POST['boats'];
$x = 0;

///POST TO DATABASE
if (isset($_POST['submitted'])) {

if ($_POST['points'][$x] == "DNF")
$points = ($_POST['boats'] +1) * $_POST['factor'];

else if ($_POST['points'][$x] == "DNS")
$points = ($_POST['boats'] +1) * $_POST['factor'];

else
$points = $_POST['points'][$x] * $_POST['factor'];

if ($_POST['factor'] == "3") {
while ($x < $times) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `ladder_points` (`memberName`, `raceDate`, `factor`, `racePoints`, `matchPoints`)
              VALUES
             ('{$_POST['name'][$x]}','{$_POST['date']}','{$_POST['factor']}','{$_POST['points'][$x]}','{$points}')
             ");
$x++;
}
} else {
while ($x < $times) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO `ladder_points` (`memberName`, `raceDate`, `factor`, `racePoints`, `fleetPoints`)
              VALUES
             ('{$_POST['name'][$x]}','{$_POST['date']}','{$_POST['factor']}','{$_POST['points'][$x]}','{$points}')
             ");
$x++;
}
}
}
