    <p>I have coded the following and its posting the data as I can see it in console. However, it does not seem to add to the database. I think it could be my condition in the process.php file for action: add_new, but I'm not sure.</p> <p>Not a huge person on PHP so unsure how to see why it's failing but it's returning successfully to the AJAX, I think but not adding to database, so I assume it might be what I said above.</p> <pre><code>if($_POST['action'] == "add_new"){ </code></pre> <p>jQuery and Form:</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt; $(document).ready(function(){ $('div.success').hide(); $("form#add_new").submit(function() { var started = "&lt;?php echo time(); ?&gt;"; var duration = $('#duration').val(); var ticket_price = $('#ticket_price').val(); var win_percentage = $('#win_percentage').val(); var description = $('#description').val(); var available = $('#available').val(); var action = "add_new"; $.ajax({ type: "POST", url: "/admin/process.php", data: { started: started, duration: duration, ticket_price: ticket_price, win_percentage: win_percentage, description: description, available: available, action: action }, dataType: 'json', success: function(data){ $('form#add_new').hide(function(){$('div.success').fadeIn();}); } }); return false; }); }); </code></pre> <p></p> <pre><code>&lt;div class="success"&gt;successfully added new ticket&lt;/div&gt; &lt;form id="add_new" method="post" class="form-horizontal"&gt; &lt;fieldset&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label for="duration" class="control-label"&gt;Duration (days)&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="duration" class="input-xlarge" value="" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label for="ticket_price" class="control-label"&gt;Ticket Price&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="ticket_price" name="ticket_price" class="input-xlarge" value="" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label for="available" class="control-label"&gt;Available to be Won(%)&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="available" name="available" class="input-xlarge" value="" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label for="win_percentage" class="control-label"&gt;Percentage of Winners&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;input type="text" id="win_percentage" name="win_percentage" class="input-xlarge" value="" /&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;label for="description" class="control-label"&gt;Description&lt;/label&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;textarea rows="4" id="description" name="description" class="input-xlarge"&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt; &lt;span class="help-block"&gt;Automatic resize&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class="control-group"&gt; &lt;div class="controls"&gt; &lt;button class="btn btn-gebo" type="submit"&gt;Save changes&lt;/button&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/fieldset&gt; &lt;/form&gt; </code></pre> <p><code>process.php</code>:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?php include "../utils.php"; // Add new raffle ticket if($_POST['action'] == "add_new"){ $started = $_POST['started']; $duration = $_POST['duration']; $ticket_price = $_POST['ticket_price']; $win_percentage = $_POST['win_percentage']; $description = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['description']); $available = $_POST['available']; my_query("INSERT INTO " . $db_prefix .

    1. COMaybe one of the values entered doesn't match the field, or you have more fields in the table. To troubleshoot it in a better way try to use the php file alone and use some values "hardcode" it in there! If it passes that, then it's the jquery not parsing it, specially at one specific field.

    2. COCould you copy paste the posted data here? I suspect that there is no `action` variable.

Guidance
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.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
