Hey there Grannie,

It seems to me that you’re on the right track, but you’re probably just missing a Submit button.

You can view the video and read the full tutorial to get the “real skinny” on creating a form to upload data to the database.

Let me know how it goes, and I’ll be glad to help if you continue to have problems.
