I'm probably going to make myself look like a fool with my horrible scripting but here we go. 

I have a form that I am collecting a bunch of checkbox info from using a binary method. ON/SET=1 !ISSET=0

Anyway, all seems to be going as planned except for the query bit. When I run the script, it runs through and throws no errors, but it's not doing what I *think* I am telling it tom which is updating the specified fields within the DB.

I've hard coded the desired values into the query and it DOES update the DB. Relying on the variables I believe I've established and am then calling upon in the query does NOT update the DB.

I've also tried echoing all the needed variables after the script runs and exiting right after so I can audit them... and they're all there. Here's an example.

```
  ####FEATURES RECORD UPDATE
### HERE I DECIDE TO RUN THE SCRIPT BASED ON WHETHER AN IMAGE BUTTON WAS USED
if (isset($_POST["button_x"])) { 

### HERE I AM ASSIGNING 1 OR 0 TO A VAR BASED ON WHTER THE CHECKBOX WAS SET
if (isset($_POST["pool"])) $pool=1;
if (!isset($_POST["pool"])) $pool=0;
if (isset($_POST["darts"])) $darts=1;
if (!isset($_POST["darts"])) $darts=0;
if (isset($_POST["karaoke"])) $karaoke=1;
if (!isset($_POST["karaoke"])) $karaoke=0;
if (isset($_POST["trivia"])) $trivia=1;
if (!isset($_POST["trivia"])) $trivia=0;
if (isset($_POST["wii"])) $wii=1;
if (!isset($_POST["wii"])) $wii=0;
if (isset($_POST["guitarhero"])) $guitarhero=1;
if (!isset($_POST["guitarhero"])) $guitarhero=0;
if (isset($_POST["megatouch"])) $megatouch=1;
if (!isset($_POST["megatouch"])) $megatouch=0;
if (isset($_POST["arcade"])) $arcade=1;
if (!isset($_POST["arcade"])) $arcade=0;
if (isset($_POST["jukebox"])) $jukebox=1;
if (!isset($_POST["jukebox"])) $jukebox=0;
if (isset($_POST["dancefloor"])) $dancefloor=1;
if (!isset($_POST["dancefloor"])) $dancefloor=0;

### I'VE DONE LOADS OF PERMUTATIONS HERE... HARD SET THE 1/0 VARS AND LEFT THE $estab_id TO BE PICKED UP.  SET THE $estab_id AND LEFT THE COLUMN DATA TO BE PICKED UP.  ALL NO GOOD.  IT _DOES_ WORK IF I HARD SET ALL VARS THOUGH

mysql_query("UPDATE thedatabase SET pool_table='$pool', darts='$darts', karoke='$karaoke', trivia='$trivia', wii='$wii', megatouch='$megatouch', guitar_hero='$guitarhero', arcade_games='$arcade', dancefloor='$dancefloor' WHERE establishment_id='22'");

 ###WEIRD THING HERE IS IF I ECHO THE VARS AT THIS POINT AND THEN EXIT(); they all show up as intended. 

header("location:theadminfilething.php");
exit();

```

THANKS ALL!!!
