I'm in the process of learning PHP and mySQL. I've created a db in mysql and am now attempting to input data using an html page and a php page but I'm having a few problems that I can't figure out. Anyones help would be great. I'm sure I'm making a simple mistake.
error that I receive:
"Parse error: parse error in /home/wrpenner/public_html/submitform.php on line 16"
that actual file (submitform.php)
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<?php
mysql_connect (localhost, #######, #######);
mysql_select_db (wrpenner_contacts);
mysql_query ("INSERT INTO contacts (first_name, last_name, company_name, address_1, address_2, city, state, zip_code, phone_number, fax_number, email)
VALUES ('$first_name', '$last_name', '$company_name', '$address_1', '$address_2', '$city', '$state', '$zip_code', '$phone_number', '$fax_number', '$email')
);
print ($first_name);
print (" ");
print ($last_name);
print ("<p>");
print ("Your submission was complete.");
?>
</body>
</html>
Please tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thank you.
