Re: php flash portal. help

Your insert query is wrong. Insert should look like this

$query = "INSERT INTO flash (author, title, website, email, width, height, *the rest*) VALUES ('$author', '$title', '$website', '$email', '$width', '*the rest*')";

just change *the rest* to the rest of the values, sorry im lazy

Re: php flash portal. help

I changed the code to this but it’s still not working. Did I enter it in right? Sorry am new to php coding.

$fileuploaded = 'upload/'.$file_name.'.swf';
//unlike the file upload script this does not need to be the full path to the directory

$date = date('F jS, Y'); //gets the date added by simple PHP date function
$date = addslashes($date); //we must add slashes to everything before entering it into the database

//add slashes to other variables
if ($website){$website = addslashes($website);}

if ($description)
{
$description = addslashes($description);
}
else
{
$description = 'N/A';
}
$name = addslashes($name);
$title = addslashes($title);
$width = addslashes($width);
$height = addslashes($height);
$category = addslashes($category);

//enter information into database creating a new row
$query = "INSERT INTO flash (author, title, website, email, width, height, description, userfile, category, date,) VALUES ('$author', '$title', '$website', '$email', '$width', '$height', '$description', '$userfile', '$category', '$date',)";

$result = mysql_query($query);

Re: php flash portal. help

Did you first perform connection to the database ? If not. it will not work ofcourse. And, delete the "," after date and $date. Anyway, you should be recieving some error message from MySQL. It would help to debug.

Re: php flash portal. help

yeah I first connected to the database and I tried deleting the "," after date and $date but it's still not working. Though I really appreciate the help, thanks. :)

Maybe its one of the other pages. I will list all the pages of my site so you may see what could be wrong.

here is my submit.htm page

<html>
<head>
<title>Submit Flash</title>
</head>

<input name="userfile" type="file" id="userfile">


<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">

</form>

</body>
</html>

and here is the code that goes in the MySQL database

CREATE TABLE flash
(
flashid INT(5) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
title VARCHAR(26) NOT NULL,
author VARCHAR(26) NOT NULL,
email VARCHAR(26),
website VARCHAR(26),
category VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
width INT(4) UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
height INT(4) UNSIGNED NOT NULL,

userfile VARCHAR(26) NOT NULL,
views INT(5) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL,
date VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL,
score FLOAT(2, 1) DEFAULT '5.0' NOT NULL,
votes INT(5) UNSIGNED DEFAULT '1' NOT NULL
);

and here is the code for the database connect

<?php
@ $db = mysql_pconnect('dbhost', 'username', 'password');
if (!$db)
{
echo("Could not connect to database");
exit;
}
mysql_select_db('databasename'); //the name of your database
?>

note: where it says dbhost, username, password, and databasename, i had enterd my info.

here is my upload.php page
