I am designing a website that connects to a database. I am using wampserver to connect to the website.
In my customer add page I am trying to ask the website to generate an autonumber from the database. As my table in the database is set up as following:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `customer` (
`CustomerID` int(11) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0',
`Customer Name` varchar(50) NOT NULL,
`Customer Address` varchar(60) NOT NULL,
`Customer Postcode` int(6) DEFAULT NULL,
`Customer Tel No` int(11) NOT NULL,
`Customer Email` varchar(50) DEFAULT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`CustomerID`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;The page for adding a customer is as so:
<?php
include('functions.php');
?>
