I am currently programming a page in which when the submit button is pressed it runs an sql script to add a form into the database. However when the submit button is pressed the page just reloads and the script is not run. The source code for the page is shown below
addResults.php :
<?php
if(isset($_POST['description'])){
if(!isset($_POST['iscorrect']) || $_POST['iscorrect'] == ""){
echo "Sorry, data is missing. Please press back and try again.";
exit();
}
if(!isset($_POST['type']) || $_POST['type'] == ""){
echo "Sorry, there was an error. Please press back and try again";
exit();
}
require_once("scripts/connect_db.php");
$team1 = $_POST['team1'];
$team2 = $_POST['team2'];
$score1 = $_POST['score1'];
$score2 = $_POST['score2'];
$year = $_POST['year'];
$round = $_POST['round'];
$type = $_POST['type'];
$type = preg_replace('/[^a-z]/', "", $type);
$team1 = strip_tags($team1);
$team1 = mysql_real_escape_string($team1);
$team2 = strip_tags($team2);
$team2 = mysql_real_escape_string($team2);
$score1 = strip_tags($score1);
$score1 = mysql_real_escape_string($score1);
$score2 = strip_tags($score2);
$score2 = mysql_real_escape_string($score2);
$year = strip_tags($year);
$year = mysql_real_escape_string($year);
$round = strip_tags($round);
$round = mysql_real_escape_string($round);
if($type == 'mr'){
if((!$team1) || (!$team2) || (!$score1) || (!$score2) || (!$year) || (!$round)){
echo "Sorry, All fields must be filled in. Press back and try again.";
exit();
}
}
if($type == 'mr'){
$previousId = mysql_insert_id();
mysql_query("UPDATE questions SET question_id='$previousId' WHERE id='$previousId' LIMIT 1")or die(mysql_error());
}
if($type == 'mr'){
$sql2 = mysql_query("INSERT INTO questions (ID, Team1, Team2, Score1, Score2, Year, Round) VALUES ('$previousId', '$team1', '$team2', '$score1', '$score2', '$year', '$round')")or die(mysql_error());
$message = 'Thank You, Your Result Has Been Added';
header('location: addResults.php?msg='.$message.'');
exit();
}
$message = "";
if(isset($_GET['msg'])){
$message = $_GET['msg'];
}
}
?>
