POST & coolfreepages.com

[flash99]

I have finished a web site that the user can use in order to view the database, add a record, and delete a record. Everything workds perfect on my localhost. But When I uploaded the site to http://www.coolfreepages.com I get the following problem:
I cannot add a record
I cannot delete a record

But funny enough I can view the database, which means that it is connecting to the database fine.

Also when I try to add a record, I can see that a new record has been created with the auto_increment id field but the other fields do not have anything.

I am using a simple HTML form for the Add and Delete, using the POST method. I suspect that this is the problem!

I was hopping for any suggestions or other ways to get around this problem.

Thanks in advance!!

Well are you using $_POST. If so id check the phpversion. You may need to use $HTTP_POST_VARS

I am using version 4.2.3, and the POST method works fine on my computer on the localhost. But once I uploaded the site and stopped working.

the server you are posting to may be using an older version of PHP.

Therefore you will need to use $http_POAT-VARS instead of _$POST.

exammple:

f( insert_order($HTTP_POST_VARS)!=false ) {then do something}

this should check your post command.

HTTP_POST_VARS AND $_POST is an array containing the data submited by a form using the POST method

If this doesn't help please post your code
.
