$link = mysql_connect("mysql","user","XXXXXXXX");
if (!$link)
  {
  die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
  }

mysql_select_db("prodINFO", $link);
$sql="INSERT INTO 'table1' ('itemNUM', 'quant', 'date', 'cost', 'ground', '3day', '2day', 'nextDAY', 'salesTAX', 'dFEE', 'pFEE', 'markUP', 'subTOT', 'flTAX') 
VALUES ('$_POST["itemNUM"]', '$_POST["quant"]', '$_POST["date"]', '$_POST["cost"]', '$_POST["ground"]', '$_POST["3day"]', '$_POST["2day"]', '$_POST["nextDAY"]', '$_POST["salesTAX"]', '$_POST["dFEE"]', '$_POST["pFEE"]', '$_POST["markUP"]', '$_POST["subTOT"]', '$_POST["flTAX"]')";

if (!mysql_query($sql,$link))
  {
  die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
  }
echo "1 record added";

mysql_close($link);

?>
