Hello there i would like someone to have a peek at this code and does it solve the question correctly ?? Are there any mistakes or any improvements i could add ??
Also If any one could tell me how to save the data entered by person into one file(XML)so it can be retrieved any time later would appreciate it ;)
Thank you

Question 2:
Write a script to allow a user to add property data into a property table ( call it addproperty.php ). The table should initially have 4 columns for the property data (postcode, price, imagefile, visits). At the end of the script display the whole table contents.

addproperty.php

<?php

$dbhandle = sqlite_popen("propertytable", 1234, $err_msg);

<?php   //this script can be run once to re-initialise the database -   to drop the existing table and recreate the table 
 
  $dbhandle = sqlite_popen("propertytable", 1234, $err_msg);
  if(!$dbhandle) die("Could not open the database");

     $query = "DROP TABLE activity";
  if(!sqlite_query($dbhandle, $query)){ echo "table 'activity' not deleted (may be not yet exists)"; }

  
  
  $query = "CREATE TABLE activity( id INTEGER AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY , postcode VARCHAR(25), price VARCHAR(25), imagefile VARCHAR(25), visits(VARCHAR(25))";
  if(!sqlite_query($dbhandle, $query)){ echo "table 'activity' created"; }

 ?> Table created

This code is addpropertytable.php
When i run this code it displays nicely, but when i try to add something to table ( create table) it says "Could not insert table row" why ??
And also how to modify this code to save the data to table and xml(or a txt file) ??
