weird, because everyother webhosting company i have gone through, i have never
had this much trouble dealing with the data sent via a form

lost me here - table is an array as you declared it in your code.
It sounds to me like you are not sure where or how data in forms is passed
back to the server.
Try this - instead of echoing the table, look at what the server sees using
the phpinfo() function
In your code
if ($_GET['submit']) {
phpinfo();
}
Then look down the resulting page - way down near the bottom in the section
titled PHP Variables - you should see how the form data looks to the server -
in the $_GET array - probably also in the $_REQUEST array
phpinfo is your friend :-)

Subject: Re: [php_mysql] submit not working
Thanks, thats what it was, but now the information in the variable table is
not being passed over. I tried useing the $_GET['table'] mothod, but it seems
to me that the information isn't being added the right way, because i echo the
value of $table, and i get Array as the value

you inspect $submit, try $_GET['submit']

Subject: [php_mysql] submit not working
heres the source code to a news system that i am building for my
website, but for some reason when i hit submit, its not registering
that i am hitting it, and it displays the form again. i know its
doing this because i made a dummy page that displays a message if
submit is working, or not and it shows its not, if anyone has any
ideas on where i might have messed up, i would really like to know:
--note, its three in the morning where i am at, so bare with me
<?php
require '/home/ravensle/includes/sql.class.php';
$sql = new sql();
$sql->connect();
$table = array();
this is for the sql code to input the information into the table i need
if($submit)
{
echo $table;
//this is for the query section on where to input the data
if(count($table) > 1)
{
for ($X = 0; $X <= count($table); $X++)
{//insert date into table
$sql->query("INSERT INTO " . $table . "(id, subject, news, date,
author) VALUES (' ',$subject,$news,now(),$author)");
}
}
else
{
die("You are missing the table name");
}//ends the if table loop
}
else
{
//this is for the section where i display the form
?>
