There don't seem to be 75 lines there? But I think you _might_ be missing 
a closing }

I suspect you will then encounter problems with your SQL: you might want 
to add  mysql_error() after your update call, and ensure that the variable 
you are using as your sql query is the variable you have assigned the sql 
query to :-)
