title: Virtuemart database connection in Joomla 1.1
body: <p>I'm modifying the Product Form to add in a field that allows a tagline for products. In the database, I've created a new field in the jos_vm_product table and added an entry in the $fields array in the ps.product.php file.</p>
  
  <p>In my product.product_form.php file I've used this code to insert the tagline into the database:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;textarea class="inputbox" name="product_tagline" id="product_tagline" cols="35" rows="4" &gt;&lt;?php echo $db-&gt;sf("product_tagline"); ?&gt;&lt;/textarea&gt; 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And the problem that is occurring is the db field is not being populated nor are there any error messages.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance for any help.</p>
