Adding a text field

I mean adding a textarea.

I have the user registration pack installed on the server and it all works. I also have access to the extensions library.

I need to add more fields and started by adding just one. So I add a new spry validation textarea using dreamweaver. I then upload to the server to check, the field seems to be working as far the spry validation, the page displays ok, so then on the SERVER BEHAVIORS panel I double click on Insert Record (users). The Insert Record Wizard opens, I hit next, select the new field I added to the database, the select the lightningbolt, hit the + sign on WAATKRegistrationForm and select "UserDescription" (the new field I added) and press OK. All seems fine, but when I upload to the server to test, the page is blank. What am I missing?

When a php page displays blank, it means a php error is occurring, but error reporting is turned of. To turn it on to see the error, add the following code at line 1:

<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors','on');
?>

post back the text of the error and a copy of the page so we can begin troubleshooting the cause.

Using the error reporting did the trick, I see the problem but now wonder what is the best way to fix it or leave it as is and just upload another WA_DataAssist and WA_ValidationToolKit folder?

I installed the User Registration Solution Pack in a directory /root/exhibitors/ and so when I used DataAssist to update the new textarea field I added to users_Registration.php, 2 directories were added to the root directory - WA_DataAssist and WA_ValidationToolKit. And there is also those two directories in the directory where I put the User Registration Solution Pack. So do I just leave it as is and upload doubles or is there a way so I have only one folder for WA_DataAssist and WA_ValidationToolKit?

I uploaded the 2 new folders and now the page displays just fine but having those folders in 2 different places doesn't seem right.

thanks

Remove the include once lines for the files at the root of the site.

When editing a page, it looks for the include files at the root of the Dreamweaver site. Since you added the contact form files in a sub directory of your site, it will recreate the include files at the root.

I removed the include once lines for the files at the root of the site.

Then I got three errors relating to line numbers in the code.

1. The first one was that it had changed $WA_connection = $localhost; to $WA_connection = $the name of my connection; so I changed it back to $WA_connection = $localhost; like the original document.

2. The second error was that it had changed $WA_connectionDB = $database_localhost; to $WA_connectionDB = $database_the name of my database connection; so I changed it back to $WA_connectionDB = $database_localhost;

I don't know why those lines changed when I inserted the new field?

3. The only error I'm getting now is: Fatel error: Call to undefined function WA_AB_generateInsertParams() in /var/www/the path to/users_Registration.php on line 111.

So line 111 is this:
$insertParamsObj = WA_AB_generateInsertParams($WA_fieldNames, $WA_columns, $WA_fieldValues, -1);

Sorry, but I'm having a hard time grasping how this all works. I wonder if I should start over and set up the pages so they are in the root directory of a dreamweaver site instead of in a subdirectory?

the line:
<?php require_once("WA_DataAssist/WA_AppBuilder_PHP.php"); ?>
was missing. Don't know why, maybe I accidentally deleted it? So I added it back in and presto, the info all entered into the database.

So next I'll add two more fields and hope it goes ok.

Thanks.
