Re: [PHP-DB] Data errors in entering
You're going to hate this ... add the $ so that you have $month, $year. Miles PS I've done it too - you red it so many times you no longer see anything.

Re: [PHP-DB] Data errors in entering
The problem is in your insert statement. You forgot the $ on your month and year variable values. Your statement should read: $sql = INSERT INTO $table_name (day,daydate,month,year,time,place,numbers, details,reportby) VALUES ('$day',$daydate,$month,$year,'$time','$place','$numbers','$details','$reportby'); ^ ^ Another note, you do not need the quotes around your integer values for $daydate, $month, $year. You also should use single quotes on the other values rather than double quotes.

RE: [PHP-DB] Data errors in entering
I am only a beginner but I always use single quotes, I am using mySQL. Such as: $sql = INSERT INTO $table_name (day, daydate, month, year, time, place, numbers, details, reportby) VALUES ('$day', '$daydate', 'month', 'year', '$time', '$place','$numbers','$details', '$reportby'); All the Best Lisa -Original Message- From: Shane Barry [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, May 21, 2001 3:11 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP-DB] Data errors in entering I seem to be having a problem with a php script I use to enter data into a sql database from a php frontend.
