This form is calling it's own page. I want to add a record to the sec_types
table. What happens is that it increments the type ID (passing '' to
auto_increment) but doesn't add the variable $txtSec_type. It prints the
text after the INSERT INTO statement.
Changing the variable to a direct value (like VALUES('', 'testing') insert
the word 'testing'. Why isn't it passing the variable value??
Cheers,
Martin S.
