    <p>Am having trouble saving data into my db after inserting it from my registration form.</p> <p>Funny enough, only two fields are being saved. i.e., The First and Last Name, but things such as Phone number aren't no matter how hard I try to look for the solution.</p> <p>Below are the files used to connect the Mysql Db with the Registration Form. </p> <p><strong>1.

    1. COI can see that your $Phone variable just doesn't exist. You strip the tags around it and store it in the $DOB variable, but later in the query, you reference a $Phone variable.

    2. COYou have `$DOB = $POST['Phone'];`. You are probably looking for `$Phone = $_POST['Phone'];`.

    3. COPlease, before you write **any** more SQL interfacing code, you must read up on [proper SQL escaping](http://bobby-tables.com/php) to avoid severe [SQL injection bugs](http://bobby-tables.com/). Also, `mysql_query` should not be used in new applications. It's a deprecated interface that's being removed from future versions of PHP. A modern replacement like [PDO is not hard to learn](http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/php/why-you-should-be-using-phps-pdo-for-database-access/) and will make your database code easier to get right. `strip_tags` is nowhere even *close* to doing it correctly.

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).
