Hello
I made a form, a register form, but that form does not work properly. You see, when i try to submit the data, i get a Incorrect table name " error and i cant seem to find what´s causing it. Here´s the insert record part :
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
if (PHP_VERSION < 6) {
$theValue = get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
}
$theValue = function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);
switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? doubleval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
}
// *** Redirect if username exists
$MM_flag="MM_insert";
if (isset($_POST[$MM_flag])) {
$MM_dupKeyRedirect="register.php";
$loginUsername = $_POST['username'];
$LoginRS__query = sprintf("SELECT username FROM `user` WHERE username=%s", GetSQLValueString($loginUsername, "text"));
mysql_select_db($database_localhost, $localhost);
$LoginRS=mysql_query($LoginRS__query, $localhost) or die(mysql_error());
$loginFoundUser = mysql_num_rows($LoginRS);
//if there is a row in the database, the username was found - can not add the requested username
if($loginFoundUser){
$MM_qsChar = "?";
//append the username to the redirect page
if (substr_count($MM_dupKeyRedirect,"?") >=1) $MM_qsChar = "&";
$MM_dupKeyRedirect = $MM_dupKeyRedirect . $MM_qsChar ."requsername=".$loginUsername;
header ("Location: $MM_dupKeyRedirect");
exit;
}
}
$editFormAction = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$editFormAction .= "?" . htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
}
if ((isset($_POST["MM_insert"])) && ($_POST["MM_insert"] == "register")) {
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO ``user`` (fname, lname, email, username, password) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
GetSQLValueString($_POST['fname'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['lname'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['email'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['username'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['password'], "text"));
mysql_select_db($database_localhost, $localhost);
$Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $localhost) or die(mysql_error());
$insertGoTo = "login.php";
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
$insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
}
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}
mysql_select_db($database_localhost, $localhost);
$query_register = "SELECT * FROM `user`";
$register = mysql_query($query_register, $localhost) or die(mysql_error());
$row_register = mysql_fetch_assoc($register);
$totalRows_register = mysql_num_rows($register);
?>
And here are my db fields : `user`(`userid`, `fname`, `lname`, `email`, `username`, `password`, `timestamp`, `userlevel`)
Thank you

I don't know how this has happened, but the problem lies with an extra pair of backticks around the table name in the following line:
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO ``user`` (fname, lname, email, username, password) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
I haven't used Dreamweaver's server behaviors for a very long time, but I'm fairly sure that the server behavior should insert backticks around each column name. So the line would look like this (notice only a single pair of backticks around user):
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO `user` (`fname`, `lname`, `email`, `username`, `password`) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
You should be aware that Dreamweaver CC removed the server behaviors a couple of years ago because they use code that's no longer supported by PHP 7.
