Me again,
I have the following which should generate a form and populate that form.
<?php
session_start();
include("db_connect.php");
if(($_SESSION['user_id']) && ($_SESSION['access_level'] == 1 ))
{
?>

I am getting the following error.
Could not update data: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'WHERE person_id = 3' at line 1
What I am trying to do is populate a form from the database based on a choice made on another page. I should then be able to update the information on this form if necessary and update the corresponding record in the database.
