CANNOT UPDATE retrieved data sent to form

[furlanut]

I am trying to retrieve Mysql data, populate a form, user amend/delete fields, UPDATE and return data to database. It is the last stage that does not happen. I press UPDATE RECORD and screen returns to ID input. Where have I gone wrong, please ?

<?php // 
require_once 'dbconnect.php';
if (isset($_POST['ID']))  $id =$_POST['ID'];
else $id = "No ID entered";
print'<form method="post" action="updateL2.php"/>
        <font color="#3F7cef"size="4"/>Enter Ship ID</font> 
        <input type="text" name="ID" size="15" maxlength ="6"/>
        <input type="submit" name="submit" value="ENTER ID"/> 
</form>  ';
if($id <= 0)
{
echo "<p><font color='red' size='6px'>You must first enter an ID</font></p>";
exit;
}
else 
{
echo "<font color='#3F7cef'size='4'/>You searched for:</font>";
echo"ID:$id";
}
$query = "SELECT * FROM launch WHERE id = '$id'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) 
echo "SELECT failed: $query<br />" . mysql_error() . "<br /><br />";
$rows=mysql_num_rows($result);
if(mysql_num_rows($result)==0)
{
echo "<p><font color='red' size='6px'>No data found for your request. Try a different query</font></p>";
exit;                       
}
for ($j=0; $j < $rows ; ++$j)
{
$row =mysql_fetch_array($result);        
}   
if  (isset($_POST['ID']) &&
    isset($_POST['Name']) &&
    isset($_POST['Tons']) &&
    isset($_POST['Built']) &&
    isset($_POST['Builder']) &&

    $name    = get_post('Name');

    $result=mysql_query($update);
    if (!mysql_affected_rows())

}

is there any possibility that in your second form, the name of the input is 'id' but not 'ID'?

Precisely. I just could not see it. Thanks very much.
