vb3: New Profile Fields = Nothing Sent to UPDATE in query. [solved]

[Harlequin]

Thanks g-force! Again and again.

For anyone else new to coding in vb3 with this or curious, in the following statement:

PHP Code:

if ($_POST['do']=="NAMEOFPOSTIF")
// do is the action being sent here, NAMEOFPOSTIF is do's command 


Place this at the top:

PHP Code:


// replace LETTERS with any character string being sent to write/update.
// replace NUMBERS with any numeric string being sent to write/update.
globalize($_POST, array('LETTERS' => STR, 'NUMBERS' => INT)); 


To add more than just one or two fields to write, just continue with STRs or INTs with commas after each.. until the last one of course.

Also note in your templates that to process your form, an extra <input> in the form must be something like:

<input type="hidden" name="do" value="NAMEOFPOSTIF">

Hope this helps any new coders.
