duplicate entry

please help i have been trying to figure this out for two days now, i have tried all forum suggestions nothing seems to help.

Its basic form that submits a category to database, i am trying to make it were it checks before inserting to see if there is a duplicate.

here is my code:


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;
}
}
$colname_rsCat = "-1";
if (isset($_POST['CategoryName'])) {
$colname_rsCat = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_POST['CategoryName'] : addslashes($_POST['CategoryName']);
}
mysql_select_db($database_myCaliDB, $myCaliDB);
$query_rsCat = sprintf("SELECT CategoryName FROM productcategories WHERE CategoryName = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_rsCat, "text"));
$rsCat = mysql_query($query_rsCat, $myCaliDB) or die(mysql_error());
$row_rsCat = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsCat);
$totalRows_rsCat = mysql_num_rows($rsCat);
?>
<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
$WAFV_Redirect = "optiongroups_Delete.php";
$_SESSION['WAVT_productcategoriesInsertvalidate_626_Errors'] = "";
if ($WAFV_Redirect == "") {
$WAFV_Redirect = $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"];
}
$WAFV_Errors = "";
$WAFV_Errors .= WAValidateNM($totalRows_rsCat . "",-1,0,"",",.",true,1);

if ($WAFV_Errors != "") {
PostResult($WAFV_Redirect,$WAFV_Errors,"productcategoriesInsertvalidate_626");
}
}

$WA_columnTypesStr = "',none,''";
$WA_fieldNames = explode("|", $WA_fieldNamesStr);
$WA_fieldValues = explode("|", $WA_fieldValuesStr);
$WA_columns = explode("|", $WA_columnTypesStr);
$WA_connectionDB = $database_myCaliDB;
mysql_select_db($WA_connectionDB, $WA_connection);
if (!session_id()) session_start();
$insertParamsObj = WA_AB_generateInsertParams($WA_fieldNames, $WA_columns, $WA_fieldValues, -1);

all the code looks correct, the only thing i can think, is that you have renamed the page, but not changed the forms action:
<form action="productcategories_Insert.php" method="post" name="WADAInsertForm" id="WADAInsertForm">

the forms action is set to post to the productcategories_Insert.php:
action="productcategories_Insert.php"

if you created a back upo pf that file and are adding the modifications to the back up, you would be bypassing them.


try changing the form tag to:
<form action="" method="post" name="WADAInsertForm" id="WADAInsertForm">


if you continue to have problems, please compress the original php page to a zip archive and attach the zip file to your reply rather paste the page code.

add the error message to the page, then highlight it.

With the error highlighted, go to WebAssist -> Forms -> Validation -> Validation Show If

in the validation show if wizard, select he Number validation from the validation fail list, then click the plus button to add it to the triggers for the error to display.
