Add to MYSQL databse

music_man

I am trying to learn a bit of php - MYSQL for my own coding. I have seen some tutorials abd have applied some of their ideas to this code but it still does not add the content of the form.

Here is my "postentry" process:

<?php

$dbh='localhost';
$dbu='xxx1';
$dbp='xxx2';
$dbn='xxx3';

$c=mysql_connect ($dbh,$dbu,$dbp) or die 
('cannot connect');
mysql_select_db ($dbn);

$title=$_POST['title'];
$post=$_POST['entry'];

mysql_query ("INSERT INTO xxx3 (title, entry) VALUES ('$title', '$entry')");

mysql_close($c);

?>

What are the problems please?

Thanks alot

$post=$_POST['entry'];
VALUES ('$title', '$entry')");

mixed up the variable names there.

you can also try debugging like

$res = mysql_query ("INSERT INTO xxx3 (title, entry) VALUES ('$title', '$entry')");
if (!$res) {
  die(mysql_error());
}
