Data Not inserting into table PHP - php

Question

The data is not inserting into another table, here's the code below :
if (isset($_POST))
{
$job = $_POST['jobtitle'];
$dur = $_POST['duration'];
$deg = $_POST['requireddegree'];
$exp = $_POST['experiance'];
$sal = $_POST['salary'];
$mark = $_POST['marks'];
if ( !empty($job) && !empty($dur) && !empty($deg) && !empty($exp) && !empty($sal) && !empty($mark))
{
$dur = mysql_real_escape_string($dur);
$deg= mysql_real_escape_string($deg);
$exp = mysql_real_escape_string($exp);
$sal = mysql_real_escape_string($sal);
$mark = mysql_real_escape_string($mark);
$job = mysql_real_escape_string($job);
$query="INSERT INTO jobposting (duration,degree,experiance,salary,marks,Jobtitle) VALUES ('".$dur."','".$deg."','".$exp."','".$sal."','".$mark."','".$job."') ";
if ($query_run= mysql_query($query))
{
header('location : Main.html');
}
else
{
echo ' Data not Inserted! ';
}
}
With this it gives me server error or there was an error in CGI script.But when I write the variables in this form '$dur' instead of '".$dur." then the else conditon runs after insert query and displays data is not inserted.
However, i have written the same logic while inserting data in my another table and it inserts successfully.But there I put '$dur'.
I can't find the problem.Will be glad for your suggestions :)

Answer 1

I can't seem to find any other error by seeing this code expect for
$query="INSERT INTO jobposting (duration,degree,experiance,salary,marks,Jobtitle) VALUES ('$dur','$deg','$exp','$sal','$mark','$job') ";
//Use ".$job." only for stuff like '".md5($_POST['password'])."' otherwise this creates problem some times.
// Adding this always helps
if(!mysqli_query($con,$query))
{
die('error'.mysqli_error($con));
}
// in $con = $con=mysqli_connect("localhost","root","");
else
{
if ($query_run= mysql_query($query))
{
header('location : Main.html');
}
else
{
echo ' Data not Inserted! ';
}
}
I think by making these changes and making sure that your db name and other basic stuff are correct then you should be good to go otherwise, specify your exact error.
