i have a small problem with my script i took a abit of source code from php.net
its to record the users browser and os
so i can record what browsers are mainly being used.
now what im wanting to do is parse the data into a database so i can pull the details and show it in a nice little pretty graph but i have a problem... the data isnt going into the database its just posting blank values...
now ive only modified the bottom section where its asking for a db connection and the mysql query
if you can help that would be brilliant
thanks in advance
