    <p>People</p> <p>I am trying to use the same script for approving a contact to be added to the database, but the query will do an update if the primary key (id) is already there. So i set up a INSERT INTO .... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE query, which is below:</p> <pre><code>$resultsc = mysql_query("INSERT INTO $contact (id,First,Last,Companyid,userid,Title,PrimaryPhone,SecondaryPhone,PrimaryEmail,SecondayEmail,inserted) VALUES('$id','$first','$last','$companyid','$userid','$title','$phone1','$phone2','$email1','$email2',NOW()) ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE (First,Last,Companyid,userid,Title,PrimaryPhone,SecondaryPhone,PrimaryEmail,SecondayEmail) VALUES ('$first','$last','$companyid','$userid','$title','$phone1','$phone2','$email1','$email2') WHERE id='$id'"); if(!$resultsc) { echo "&lt;font face='Verdana' size='2' &gt;&lt;center&gt;You have successfully approved this user for access to this site.&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;input type='button' value='Back' onClick='history.go(-2)'&gt;&lt;/center&gt;"; die(); } else { echo "&lt;font face='Verdana' size='2' &gt;&lt;center&gt;You have not updated this contact for this site.&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;input type='button' value='Back' onClick='history.go(-2)'&gt;&lt;/center&gt;"; } </code></pre> <p>I am not getting any errors but the database is not updating or inserting a new record. So I checked my "$contacts" variable to ensure it is is pointing to the correct table, and it is. If i just do an insert alone then the script is working fine. But when i do this query nothing happens. I am wondering what is wrong with it or should i just have a if/else with a select checking for a existing key?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
