Retrieve database ID

[jasecorn]

I currently use the form to submit data to a mysql database. I have a script that I’ve written to display the contents of each table row in a nicely formatted web page – based on a lookup of a submitted row ID (ie: http://www.test.com/script.php?id=345)

What I’d love to be able to do, is have quform automatically redirect to this script by retrieving the value of the database ID it just created.

So, submit form, and then display the contents of what was just submitted.

I’m not sure if this is possible or not?

Hi Ally

I should have mentioned that I’m using an external database with an auto increment ID. The database needs to be portable, so living within the wordpress database isn’t really an option.
Looking at the code you have provided, I’m assuming it relies on storing the data in the wordpress database, and utilising the “Entry ID” field?
