Hi All,
I built a form in Dreamweaver (to get done quickly) and want to insert the details into my access database so I used an insert query. It works fine but when I copy the code to another page and change the respective database tables, form and database fields for some reason it doesn't work. The worst thing is that I don't even receive any errors on the page so it won't even tell me what is wrong. when i try to insert/ submit the form it just goes back to the form again. I wonder can someone take a look at my code and see if they can spot anything that I've missed? Ps. If anyone has a quick alternative with a LOT less code I will, of course, take it :)
