Php Not Posting

[GatorGuy]

This is the script I am using to post to a db.

As of last night it was working fine when I sent it data from a form. As of this morning when I post data to it I still get the "sending....!" message but the data never makes it to the db. Nothing has been changed so there should not be a reason that it isn't working.

 

Any thoughts?

 

 

EDIT: Got it working. I had added new fields in the DB and forgot to add them to the PHP files.

If you're using a form to feed data into this script, then I'm surprised it was working before.

To access the data posted from a form, you need to use the $_POST global variable, not $_GET

 

Try changing that and let me know if it works

I was using POST and switched to _GET for some testing. They both worked just fine. I am going to switch back to the POST method before I take the scripts live.

That's really strange

Try changing it to $_POST and let me know how it goes.

Sorry for the long dely. I am installing Apahe on a server.

 

I was able to get the script working. I had added two fields to the table using phpmyadmin and forgot to add them to the script. When I did it went back to adding the data to the DB.

 

On a site note though, _GET does work if you don't mind the values in the URL. I will be using POST on the final run though.

Well, it will work that way if you set "get" as the form method, which is not the usual way of doing it and not recommended, as you probably know.

 

But anyway, I'm glad you got it working

I'm all for the POST method. I was just using GET for some testing.
