I see how that would work with individual insert querys for individual
fields, but in my case there are four input fields per query, so it
won't work, even then it is possible for one field to be left empty in
each query (the comments field). And that is okay. If I try this -
if (!isnull($date_am || $exercise_am || $reps_am)) then
mysql_query($sql_am) or die
("Error in this query >>$sql<< : " .mysql_error());
I get this error -
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_STRING in
/usr/local/apache/htdocs/workout-abs.php on line 111
I have 4 fields, 3 will always be filled, 1 is optional. I thought I
would try to test for any of the 3 being empty but it didn't work.
