Hi everybody,
Thanks for the information, unfortunately for me there are no arrays
being
used. The names used are solely the names of each individual column/field
in
the table. I have already tried all the suggestions to no avail. That is
why
I hardcoded a version of my insert-data-into-table and once I knew it
worked
I substituted all the hardcoded fields with $_POST in place of the
hardcoding, I then cut and pasted in each field the corresponding
hardcoded
value and just before writing the record. I echoed the record values and
all
appears to be well. Then via the MySQL Monitor I check to see if the
record
had been written and found that nothing has happened. Please forgive me
if I
appear to be ungrateful, which is not the case I am just frustrated.
Especially after proving that one version of my insert-data-into-table
(hardcoded) worked and a version of my insert-data-into-table works with
a 4
column table (a different table) and will not work with a version using
as
input data the values of the hardcoded version. I knows the fault lays
with
me but I cannot see it.
Paul
Hmm, is there any input filtering going on that is modifying the
values in $_POST, to make them different from the hardcoded version?
Is the dreaded magic_quotes_runtime enabled?
Also, you have a semicolon in your POST test code, maybe you caught
that already?
