PHP MYSQL confirmation

[jgurgen]

i have a form that on sumbit calls a page to do the mysql statements. After a successful insert or update i would like to return the user to the same page with a note at the top say "Insert successful"

how do i do this?

Typically, I write a script that outputs a form that submits back to the script. The script, in general, would be of the form:

<?php
if (isset ($_POST['some field from the form']))
{
   //process the input from the form, including inserting
   //the data into mysql

   //display "success" message and form
}
else
{
   //display blank form
}
