Dude, that strategy of having a functions file is really clever. Thanks for the tuts!

[pbj746]

@HabZbaH thanks! I'm trying to incorperate the DRY(Don't Repeat Yourself) coding method in, for the most part it's working out, there are a few kinks i'm gonna work out in the next few videos.

Something else to think about if you want to change the text that is displayed on your buttons such as the submit button you can add value="Submit" and change the name to anything you wish. You could do value="GO" and the button would say GO on it instead of submit. It's always better to name your buttons instead of letting html do it for you.

@MrVPalumbo SET is a better way to insert into any table since you can use the table names to set them it works really well.

[MrVPalumbo]

I don't know what version of php you are using or mysql but one of the codes for the add categories does not work. I had to edit it in order to make it work if any of you have issues making this work this this codes it's actually better because it doesn't need the ID field to even be touched we are going to put the contents into the table directly by their names.

INSERT INTO categories SET Title='$cName',Description='$c­Desc'

He seems to be busy with something... if you guys are still interested in PHP, I'm starting up a series of relatively good quality. I'm going to contact him about why he has been inactive, but for now you are all welcome to check out some of my work :) I hope he comes back, he was one of the best tutorial makers on youtube... he inspired me to make better tutorials back in the day.
