for some reason i cant get this to submit any data into to my database, ive been trying to create a sort of registration form, so i modified the tutorial that i had been working on, but now it wont send the data to my database, but it will display the information that i have entered at the bottom of the screen (the info is displayed in the 'echo' areas.

heres the code for the form if you need to see that too

srry for the double post, but i figured it out, i had accidently included $email twice, once removing the second $email it all worked out. thanks arizona web for the help, i wouldnt have thought to double check that if i hadnt seen the error that i got.

NP bud. While I am developing I always echo errors after every SQL statement in PHP and keep debug on in other languages. Makes it easier to know off the bat where the problems are.

Glad you were able to figure it out, but please use the "edit" button to modify your post. It doesn't take very long. It's the second time, that I know of, that you double post. I don't want to be a bit**, but obey the rules.
