SQL查询失败

I'm trying to insert data into my database and this query is failing and I can't figure out why. I'm just getting the 'Error updating database' output.

Table details

name    varchar(80)      
sitename    varchar(80)      
pages   text         
colors  text         
navigation  text     
content text

PHP

<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$sitename = $_POST['sitename'];
$pages = $_POST['pages'];
$color = $_POST['colors'];
$navigation = $_POST['navigation'];
$content = $_POST['content'];
mysql_connect("localhost","csuwebdev","") or die ('Error: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("csuwebdev");
$query = "INSERT INTO draft (name, sitename, pages, colors, navigation, content) VALUES ( '".$name."',  '".$sitename."', '".$pages."', '".$color."', '".$navigation."', '".$content."')";
mysql_query($query) or die ('Error updating database');
echo "Submission received...";

?>

HTML

<form method="POST" action="processDraft.php">
Your name<br>
<input type="text" name="name"><br>
Name of website<br>
The pages that will comprise the website and a brief description of each. A minimum of 4 is required (Home, About, Contact, and Resume)<br>
<textarea rows="4" cols="100" name="pages">
</textarea><br>
What colors might you use for the background, content background, header text, and paragraph text?<br>
<textarea rows="4" cols="100" name="colors">
</textarea><br>
What will the navigation buttons look like, and where will they be placed?<br>
<textarea rows="4" cols="100" name="navigation">
</textarea><br>
Where will you put your main content for each page?<br>
<textarea rows="4" cols="100" name="content">
</textarea><br>
<input type="submit">
</form>

Rewrite your code to

$conn=mysql_connect("localhost","csuwebdev","") or die ('Error: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("csuwebdev",$conn);

You need to pass the database connection to your mysql_select_db before making queries to your table.


This(mysql_*) extension is deprecated as of PHP 5.5.0, and will be removed in the future. Instead, the MySQLi or PDO_MySQL extension should be used. Switching to PreparedStatements is even more better to ward off SQL Injection attacks !

PDO Version of the above code. [Didn't test though]

$dbh =  new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=csuwebdev', 'username', 'password');
$stmt = $dbh->prepare("INSERT INTO draft (name, sitename,pages,colors,navigation) VALUES(?,?,?,?,?)");
$stmt->execute(array($name,$sitename,$pages,$color,$navigation));
