Ok here is my problem and where I am at this far, first thing I needed to do
is to read the contents of a directory and place the results into a select
box in a form (accomplished), now where I am stuck is passing the selection
from said select box to another script so it may be put into a mysql
jas,
Ya didn't do what I told you to do. Now, do this:
SELECT NAME=\files\;
$sql = UPDATE $table_name SET file_name=\$files\;

jas,
Ya didn't do what I told
Ok I made the changes you suggested and unfortunately I am getting the same
results... Could not execute query, I manually put entries into the tables
so that the update command would just overwrite the current contents. Here
is my code this far, I think my problem (correct me if I am wrong)
Upon doing a print $sql before the mysql_querie I get this output;
UPDATE cm_index SET ad01_t=$filesCould not execute query. Please try again
later

I got it to work like this.. I don't know if you didn't want to use INSERT
or something but it sticks the filename in the database table for me..
?php
$dir_name = /home/httpd/html/database/images;
$dir = opendir($dir_name);
$file_list .= pFORM METHOD=\post\ ACTION=\$PHP_SELF\
SELECT
successfully.brbr\n );
echo( a href=\javascript:history.back();\Add another file?/a );
}
?
Later,
Bob

Okay, so I figured out why you might want to use UPDATE instead of SELECT.
And I also found that no matter what I tried, UPDATE doesn't seem to be
able
to UPDATE a table if there are no rows in it.. Otherwise it works fine..
So
