Heya, mahitha1. Welcome to TSDN!

If you're getting a message that the row has been added, but the row wasn't actually added, then there's a problem with your error checking.

Try using mysql_error() to see if your query returned an error. Also, let's have a look at the code that detects if a row was inserted to see where the problem is.

P.S.:

so pls send me exact syntax to insert data into table from a drop downmenu in php.

Sorry, but thescripts.com doesn't work that way. You've got to do the work yourself, but we're happy to lend support and advice along the way!
