    <p>I'm new to web development and have been wrestling with this problem for several hours now, so I've decided to turn to your wisdom. I'm trying to design a little webpage with a database for my wife to store her recipes in, but I'm having trouble getting form submission to work. Here is the code for the webpage where I take the form information in:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;&lt;body&gt; Enter the information below to add a new ingredient for use in your recipes. &lt;form action="add_to_database.php" method="post"&gt; Name: &lt;input name="name" type="text" /&gt; Serving: &lt;input type="text" name="serving" /&gt; Calories: &lt;input type="text" name="calories" /&gt; &lt;input type="submit" /&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>And here is some silly code I've been trying to display on the page to see if I can even get the form submission to work:</p> <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;&lt;body&gt; &lt;?php $name = $_POST['name']; echo $name."&lt;br /&gt;"; ?&gt; &lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>Unfortunately, the page comes back as completely back (after I hit the submit button). What's absolutely baffling to me is that I've copied and pasted the examples from this <a href="http://www.tizag.com/phpT/forms.php" rel="nofollow">page</a> into some files and everything seems to work fine. So it seems as though apache and php are working correctly, but I'm messing up somewhere along the way. My apologies in advance if this seems like a stupid question but for the life of me I can't figure it out.</p>

    2. CODo you have an index.php page? Can you post up add_to_database.php. If you have an index.php, doing a simple echo 'test'; at the top will see if php is working. Then you can go from there.

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).
