update problems - mysql database

That's wierd, are you sure your script isn't losing them, or you haven't set a max value for your text fields??

Perhaps the problem is that you create you're input fields like this (php inserts the data):

Code: Select all

<input type=text value=the value of this field name=fieldname>


the browser will only place "the" as default value in the input field.
perhaps this is you're solution.

Code: Select all

<input type="text" value="the value of this field" name="fieldname">


If this is the problem it should be visable in the form.
could be something else though.

Well done, I knew I came across a similar problem a while ago, but couldn't remember exactly what the problem was!
