Your index.php looks very strange: > <?PHP > > <form method="post" action="purlprocess.php"> > .... > </form> > > ?> I'm guessing you're echoing this? I never echo from my scripts so I don't know if this is new functionality, but in my days you echoed either by <?="...";?> or by <? echo "..."; ?>. Anyway, since you're using the $_POST variable, did you check if it contains any values? You can do this with var_dump($_POST); Let us know what the results are. Another tip: > $FName= $_POST['txtFName']; > etc is terrible practice - if anybody writes an SQL command into one of your textfields it WILL be executed; this is called SQL injection. A less terrible scenario, but still one that messes up your page, is if somebody uses quotes. So always use mysql_real_escape_string() on your post variables before using them in a query. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
