Hi there:
I'm not sure where this problem derived so i really need a second pair of eyes for this issue.

The Problem:
you can successfully enter data via the PHP pages however when you go into mysql to view the data thats been entered you see "NULL" in the breed column.

Whats interesting:
When you go in and manually enter the data from the MyPHPAdmin interface you get all the fields successfully entered (even the breed).

At Present:
I'm not sure what to look for anymore..
But for some reason I'm thinking its the .php file thats causing the issue


<?php require_once('Connections/connPets.php'); ?>
<?php
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
$theValue = (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? addslashes($theValue) : $theValue;

switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}

$editFormAction = $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$editFormAction .= "?" . $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];
}

if ((isset($HTTP_POST_VARS["MM_insert"])) && ($HTTP_POST_VARS["MM_insert"] == "insert_dat")) {
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO adoption_list (species, breed, name, age, personality) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['species'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['breed'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['name'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['age'], "int"),
GetSQLValueString($HTTP_POST_VARS['personality'], "text"));

mysql_select_db($database_connPets, $connPets);
$Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $connPets) or die(mysql_error());

$insertGoTo = "insert_yeah.php";
if (isset($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
$insertGoTo .= $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['QUERY_STRING'];
}
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}
?>
