Note: mysql: This extension was deprecated in PHP 5.5.0, and it was removed in PHP 7.0.0. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used.

You have provided with the form action and that will redirect after clicking the submit button.

You have written the INSERT STATEMENT in the same page itself and that will not even work for you.

First Remove up the action="" and then you redirect it based on the data saved.

HTML:

<form action = "" method= "POST">
</form>

And you Option value is missing out values and after the form is submitted the values will not be entered into the DB. Hence you need to do the following.

Replace:

<option value="">Accounting Firm</option>

With:

<option value="Accounting Firm">Accounting Firm</option>

PHP Code for Insert:

You Insert Code will not work since you have not provided with the table values for insert operations.

Syntax:

INSERT INTO TABLENAME(`columnname1`,`columnname2`,.....) VALUES(VALUE1,VALUE1,....)

Hence you are advised to use the correct table structure for the Operations and then insert the data.

INSERT QUERY:

$insert = mysql_query("INSERT INTO company_account(`category`,`name`,`about`) VALUES ('$category','$cname','$about')");

You can insert all in the single query itself and then redirect using the header location.

Use header Location for redirection to particular page after the data has been saved.

header('location : http://www.google.co.in');

PHP PART:

<?php
if(isset($_POST['comp']))
{
    $category=$_POST['category'];
    $cname = $_POST['cname'];
    $insert = mysql_query("INSERT INTO company_account(`category`,`name`,`about`) VALUES ('$category','$cname','$about')");
    $rows = mysql_affected_rows();
    if($rows=0)
    {
        echo mysql_error();
    }
    else
    {
        ob_start(); // Refresh the Output Buffer
        header('location: http://www.google.co.in');
        exit;
    }
}
?>

Note: $about you are using in the Insert Statement but no values are provided over to the Insert Statement. Please check to that.
