put in a "var_dump($sql);die();" right after
$result = mysql_query($sql);
Then copy/paste it into mysql's command line util, and see what
you get.

Help. Help
Please, Please tell me what I am doing wrong here...I have a form to input data but
it is not posting it....here is the code. It
seems to work no errors but a query show no new additions to the table.
$sql = "INSERT INTO employees (first,last,address,date_of_birth,sex,age,telephone,
parent_guardian_name,parent_guardian_workplace,work_telephone,emergency_information_contact,
list_physical_conditions_if_any,all_schools_previously_attended,examinations_passed,older_brothers,younger_brothers,older_sisters,yo
unger_sisters,
names_sisters_or_brothers_attending_school) VALUES
('$first','$last','$address','$date_of_birth',$sex','$age','$telephone','$parent_guardian_name','$parent_guardian_workplace',
'$work_telephone','$emergency_information_contact','$list_physical_conditions_if_any','$all_schools_previously_attended','$examinati
ons_passed','$older_brothers','$younger_brothers','$older_sisters','$younger_sisters','$names_sisters_or_brothers_attending_school')
";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
