It's the $query variable that it's falling over on - it's not defined anywhere.

Try this instead for your PHP file:

<?php

mysql_connect("localhost", "admin", "password") or die(mysql_error());

echo "Connected to MySQL<br />";

mysql_select_db("planner") or die(mysql_error());

$customer = $_POST["customer"];

$reg = $_POST["reg"];

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO vehicle (customer, reg) VALUES('$customer', '$reg' ) ") or die(mysql_error());

$result = mysql_fetch_array($query);

?>

Bold bits are what I've changed/added.

Thanks sam

I'll try that when I get home. If it cures it what will happen on the page once I've submitted?

What does the result line you added do?

Nothing, you don't need it if you're doing an insert on a table. If you're doing a select on the table, it will put the results of the query into an array called $result.

Oh yes, didn't notice the INSERT bit of the query!

Keep the $query line and remove the $result line in this case.

So When I run this now will it just come up connected to mysql and then the rest of the page blank? Or will it say data inserted or similar ?

Never done anything like this and I was so chuffed to see the data from my form get added to the database
