I appreciate all of the assistance you have thus far provided. heidisql is for Windows, and I’m running on a Mac. all my bootcamp files are corrupt, so I can’t access Windows.
this nut is harder to crack than I had thought.
what’s a Mac?
just kidding
try the mysql query browser

No luck there either. Can you look over the code in my most recent post and see what I’m doing wrong. This ‘problem’ has paralyzed me for 2 days.
you mean this?
$query = “INSERT INTO contacts (firstname) VALUES (‘$firstname’)”;
the SQL looks fine, i cannot help you with the php, sorry
It’d be much easier to help you out if just provided the whole code using this service: http://pastebin.com/. The code you’ve listed in your post #18 is not correct syntactically. I am not sure if it’s because you’ve snipped the rest of the code, or because this is how you’ve written it.
