    <p>I have a PHP form that when submitted saves to a MySQL database. One of the fields is an ID field where the user enters their ID. When a user has an ID with just numbers everything works fine. But, if their ID looks like this:</p> <p>m0mvtRLb3Mm9c8ZlKa8_S2J5L-J35caA7eqQHb_DQ1a4pbOMmag0Mrt_Nz72VH48PQcMmt44Yxaic_NRXQqW-b3nSGgs3VLBp21Ii942DaZIhW0PqNi1wERne1jT7to30</p> <p>Then it doesn't work at all. The ID field is a varchar, does it need to be something else?</p> <p>This is the code on that page (settings.php)</p> <pre><code>&lt;form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="settings.php?ID=&lt;?=$ID?&gt;" method="POST"&gt; Please enter your information&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; ID: &lt;input name="ID" readonly="readonly" type="text" value="&lt;?=$ID?&gt;" &gt;&lt;br&gt; First Name: &lt;input type="text" name="FN" value="" &gt;&lt;br&gt; Last Name: &lt;input type="text" name="LN" value="" &gt;&lt;br&gt; Age: &lt;select name="AGE"&gt; &lt;option&gt;&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;10&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;11&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;12&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;13&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;14&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;15&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;16&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;17&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;18&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;19&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;20-25&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;26-30&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;31-35&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;36-40&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;41-50&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;51-60&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;61-70&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;70-80&lt;/option&gt; &lt;option&gt;81+&lt;/option&gt; &lt;/select&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Email: &lt;input type="text" name="EM" value=""&gt;&lt;br&gt; Phone: &lt;input type="text" name="PN" value=""&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;br/&gt; I agree to the &lt;a href="../privacy.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Privacy Policy&lt;/a&gt; and the &lt;a href="../terms.htm" target="_blank"&gt;Terms of Service&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;input type="radio" name="TOS" value="1" &gt;Yes &lt;input type="radio" name="TOS" value="2" &gt; No&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; &lt;input type="submit" name="edit" value="edit"&gt;&lt;/form&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;? require_once('../serv_inc.php'); $conn = mysql_connect("$mysql_server","$mysql_user","$mysql_pass"); if (!$conn) die ("ERROR"); mysql_select_db($mysql_database,$conn) or die ("ERROR"); if(isset($_POST['edit'])) { $sID = (int)$_POST['ID']; $sFN = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['FN']); $sLN = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['LN']); $sAGE = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['AGE']); $sEM = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['EM']); $sPN = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['PN']); $sTOS = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['TOS']); mysql_query("UPDATE scavenger1 SET FN='".$sFN."', LN='".$sLN."', AGE='".$sAGE."', EM='".$sEM."', TOS='".$sTOS."', PN='".$sPN."'

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).
