First off I wanted to suggest you do some reading on PHP Security as
your application falls victim to an input validation failure. Anytime
you get data from a user IE: $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE, $_REQUEST,
$_SERVER you need to check that the data you are getting is right...
Read the PHP Security Guide: http://phpsec.org/projects/guide/
Also your code is quite ugly... Work on formatting and not hiding
errors. Fix them first not hide them. In production you should log
your errors instead of allowing them to be displayed to the browser.
Also you only need to select the database once, and you should reuse
variables when they make sense to.
When inserting data into mysql use mysql_real_escape_string
Now onto fixing your code:
