Try using quotation mark in each of values. so this code
($vrb1,$vrb2,$vrb3,$vrb4,$vrb5)
change to
('$vrb1','$vrb2','$vrb3','$vrb4','$vrb5'). i had a problem like u long time ago.

The code below takes variables vrb1 through vrb5 from a form and it is
supposed to update a database. It is displaying the results coming from the
form on the screen (so the form works correctly) but this code can not update
the database, displaying "I could not update the database" as below - and when
I check it is really not updated. Can anybody tell me why it can not update the
database? The columns written here also match with database columns.
<?php
//Connect To Database
$hostname='..............';
$username='.............';
$password='........';
$dbname='.............';
$usertable='table1';
mysql_connect($hostname,$username, $password) OR DIE ('Unable to connect to
database! Please try again later.');
mysql_select_db($dbname);
$vrb1=$_POST['vrb1'];
$vrb2=$_POST['vrb2'];
$vrb3=$_POST['vrb3'];
$vrb4=$_POST['vrb4'];
$vrb5=$_POST['vrb5'];
echo "updated database as follows: " ;
echo $vrb1 .$vrb2. $vrb3. $vrb4. $vrb5;
$query="INSERT INTO table1 (iid, title1, par1, par2, par3) VALUES
($vrb1,$vrb2,$vrb3,$vrb4,$vrb5)";
mysql_query($query) or die (' I could not update the database');
?>
