    I am trying to create a registration form and during testing I noticed that not all of the data entered in the form saves to the database or appears in the email notification. I've started over several times and still have the same problem. Some of the form fields are formatted differently (ie - some have underscores and capped letters, where others are all lowercase and no punctuation). Could this be the problem, and if so, what are the specifications for writing fields? Is there something wrong in the script? Any help would be very much appreciated! Thank you.

    In general since you are using SQL you would need to clean the data (http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-real-escape-string.php) before entering it into the database.  You also need to be sure the data type define in the database is right for the data type you are entering.  If you think the issues are relatively simple we can try to solve them here.  Pick one issue at a time and give me as much detail as possible. 
    I've never experienced these problems but if you would like more detailed help send me an email.
