Dont apologize. even the best of us make mistakes.
the .$field. is a more reliable way of displaying the information contained within. as in a few cases I find the variable itself gets printed ie $field shows up as $field in cases where I didnt use the .$field. just an observation on my part.
if the form name was a typo then you will want to check your register_globals in your php.ini file it probably is turned off in which case you want to use $l_name = $_POST["l_name"]; etc..
this will give you the var values with out having to change your php.ini
its also more secure if what I read is correct.

".$l_name."I am LD. I do have the <? echo ?> in my code. The leads_id is an autonumber, it the primary key for the table. What do the .$field. gives you over $field? Also another LD mistake, addlead.php is addlead.php.
I will try it.

Hi Payne
for starters your missing an ? at the last echo <? echo $l_name>
secondly I would rewrite the sql statement to read
$sql = "INSERT INTO $table_name
(leads_id, title, f_name, l_name)
VALUES
(' ".$leads_id." ', ' ".$title." ', ' ".$f_name." ', '
');";
but the statement itself shouldnt cause a problem either way.
I am wondering where leads_id comes from however.. is it an auto number?
and finally your processing form is called addlead.php and the form is posting to a form called addleads.php
hope this helps
