Hey, great code, i have been trying to add another column for the phone number and when i change the code it doesn't update or add records, it doesn't give any errors just nothing gets entered in the database. Head is wrecked trying to fix it. Can anybody see where i am going wrong.
<?php
/*
Allows the user to both create new records and edit existing records
*/
// connect to the database
include("connect-db.php");
// creates the new/edit record form
// since this form is used multiple times in this file, I have made it a function that is easily reusable
function renderForm($first = '', $last ='', $phone ='', $error = '', $id = '')
{ ?>
