Hi Richard,
Thank you for all your time. It is nearly midnight here!
All the code including // test sections is

RE: [PHP-DB] Multiply Auto_Increments
Looking at the code you've pasted in below, I don't see anything that would
result in one valid row plus additional blank rows.
Is the code you supplied in a script with any control structures like IF,
WHILE, or FOR? Is it included into a script in the middle of a control
structure? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, is it supposed
to be? Have you closed those control structures prior to executing the
INSERT?
If there is more code in the script, can you please paste it all? It's
possitble something else higher up in the script is causing the problem.
Sorry I wasn't more specific the first time.

RE: [PHP-DB] Multiply Auto_Increments
Richard,
Here is the code
$sql = "
INSERT INTO $table
(id,date,user,title,brief,body,expires,visible)
VALUES(NULL,\"$date\",\"$user\",\"$title\",\"$brief\",\"$body\",\"$exdate\",
\"1\")
";
$connection = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbusername, $dbpass) or die ("Could
not connect to database");
$db = mysql_select_db($dbname) or die ("could not select db.");
$result = mysql_query($sql,$connection) or die ("Could not execute query");
The variables $date etc are from a POST form input
Any ideas?
Toby

RE: [PHP-DB] Multiply Auto_Increments
Sounds like a looping problem in your code. Can you supply the code around your INSERT statement so we can see what's going on? The only times I've experienced anything Roswell about MySQL is when I've written bad code.
