This is my dbconnect.php;
<?
include("include/config.php");
$db = mysql_connect("$dbserver", "$dbuser",
"$dbpass");
mysql_select_db("$dbname",$db);
?>
The config.php has the details for the server, dbname,
table name, dbuser name and password. I trust that
both config.php and dbconnect.php are fine because I
get access to the db and even get output from other
scripts that communicate with the db. It's only this
one, for entering (inserting) values that is failing.
