hello, am new here and new to php/mysql coding.
i have 2 tables - tbl_prodstd and tbl_products
tbl_prodstd - std_id, prod_name, prod_desc, prod_photo, prod_brand
tbl_product - prod_id, std_id, prod_name, prod_brand, prod_desc, prod_price, cat, subcat, prod_photo

i created 3 pages - add_prod.php, addprod.php, func.php

the func.php displays prod_name and prod_brand as selects. selecting prod_name displays the related prod_brand. selecting the prod_brand displays the prod_desc.

when i click the add button in add_prod.php, addprod.php executes.
values are inserted to the tbl_product table. all values are being inserted but i dnt know how to add the std_id, prod_desc and prod_photo in tbl_product table. below are each of the codes

add_prod.php
