Okay,
I have moved on a few more steps and now starting to add, edit and delete records.
With this issue I am having trouble get the script to update or add new records. It produces no error messages:
The code:
view.php
<?php
// connect to the database
include("connect.php");
// creates the new/edit record form
// A function that is easily reusable
function renderForm($page = '', $title = '', $description = '', $keywords = '', $error = '', $id = '')
{ ?>
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>
<?php if ($id != '') { echo "Edit Record"; } else { echo "New Record"; } ?>
</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<h1><?php if ($id != '') { echo "Edit Record"; } else { echo "New Record"; } ?></h1>
<?php if ($error != '') {
echo "<div style='padding:4px; border:1px solid red; color:red'>" . $error
. "</div>";
} ?>
<form action="" method="post">
<div>
<?php if ($id != '') { ?>
<input type="hidden" name="id" value="<?php echo $id; ?>" />
<p>ID: <?php echo $id; ?></p>
<?php } ?>
<strong>Page: *</strong> <input type="text" name="page"
value="<?php echo $page; ?>"/><br/>
<strong>Title: *</strong> <input type="text" name="title"
value="<?php echo $title; ?>"/><br/>
<strong>Description: *</strong> <input type="text" name="description"
value="<?php echo $description; ?>"/><br/>
<strong>Keywords: *</strong> <input type="text" name="keywords"
value="<?php echo $keywords; ?>"/>
<p>* required</p>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</div>
</form>
</body>
