Hello,
May be try something like this:
$query1=
CREATE TABLE contacts(
id int(16) NOT NULL auto_increment,
phone varchar(15) NOT NULL,
name varchar(15) NOT NULL,
address varchar(15) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (id)
);
$query2 = "INSERT INTO contacts VALUES ('NULL','$phone', '$name',
'$address')";
P:S
id incremented automatically by MYSQL now

Hello,
I am new to the world of PHP and MySQL. My objective is to create a
table, insert values in it and read it back.
Here's the partial code to create a table from a PHP file:
if (!$table_exists) {
$query="CREATE TABLE contacts (id int(20) NOT NULL, name
varchar(15) NOT NULL, address varchar(15),PRIMARY KEY(id)
if (mysql_query($query, $con)) echo "Table contacts created";
else die('Unable to create table : '.mysql_error());
}
I input the values from a HTML form. Here is the partial code.
$phone = $_POST['phone'];
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$query = "INSERT INTO contacts VALUES ('$phone', '$name', '$address')";
if (mysql_query($query, $con)) echo "Values inserted";
else die('Unable to create table : '.mysql_error());
Now the problem that I am facing is that when I make my first insert,
the id field shows a garbage value and not the number that I entered.
Subsequent entries into the table show up just fine. It's only the
first one.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, Rij
