Automatic duplication of records
Please help me! I am having trouble with two of my fields (I have 29). Whatever I put in my training field (a textarea) is automatically duplicated in the education field (next field which is also a textarea). No matter what I place in the education field, once I hit the add button, the success page shows a duplicate entry in both the training and education fields. I have to modify the record to correct this but I do not want to do this all the time. What seems to be problem? Thanks for any help

Are you using autogenerate (letting the script make your page) or have you edited the html.pl to customize it.

If autogenerate, then check your field names in default.cfg

If you've customized html.pl check your field names there as well. Most likely you have two fields with the same value or name. Your NAME="" and VALUE="" should match for the textarea, but each textarea should have its own unique name/value.

Also in your .cfg file be sure the fields are numbered consecutively starting with 0 and ending in 28 (with 29 fields).
