news system -> post news

i am just beginning with php and worked through the tutorial... i tried to modify the comment-post-system, but i didnt get it :/ could anybody post a solution, so that i can understand how to do it? it's not that i want a complete script to use, but i think it would be easier if i had a solution that works so that i can reconstruct it ... thank you very much, and sorry for my german-english :p

greetz, amir

RE: news system -> post news

well, somehow i managed it to work ;)
for those who are still searching for a way:
make a form like this:

php Code:

Original - php Code
echo "<HR width="300">"; echo "<FORM action="{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}" . "?action=postnews" method=POST>n"; echo "Title: <input type="text" " . "width="30" name="title"><BR>n"; echo "<TEXTAREA cols="100" rows="10" " . "name="text"></TEXTAREA><BR>n"; echo "<input type="submit" name="submit" " . "value="Add News"n"; echo "</FORM>n";

 
    echo "<HR width="300">";
    echo "<FORM action="{$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}" .
         "?action=postnews" method=POST>n";
    echo "Title: <input type="text" " .
         "width="30" name="title"><BR>n";
    echo "<TEXTAREA cols="100" rows="10" " .
         "name="text"></TEXTAREA><BR>n";
    echo "<input type="submit" name="submit" " .
         "value="Add News"n";
    echo "</FORM>n";

add this function:

php Code:

Original - php Code
function postnews() { global $db; $query = "INSERT INTO news (title, newstext) VALUES ('$_POST[title]','$_POST[text]')"; mysql_query($query); echo "News posted. Thanks!<BR>n"; echo "<a href="news.php">Back</a>n"; }

 
function postnews() {
    global $db;
    
    $query = "INSERT INTO news (title, newstext) VALUES ('$_POST[title]','$_POST[text]')";
    mysql_query($query);
    
    echo "News posted. Thanks!<BR>n";
    echo "<a href="news.php">Back</a>n";
}

and this for the switch:

php Code:

Original - php Code
case 'postnews': postnews(); break;

 
    case 'postnews':
        postnews();
        break;
