Android MySQL Php application trying to store user details using post statements in php

Question

Hi all I am creating an application and I am trying to store user details on a mysql database using android as front end and JSON/php to post email address, first name, last name etc.

When I try to store/post data I get the following logcat output log, can anyone suggest any tips through better interpretation of the log. Note I have declared 'Email_address' in 'index.php'.

Answer 1

There are some errors and notices in your script output and you have the xdebug extension which is trying to make them look pretty by wrapping them in HTML.
You can check your server's php error log or maybe try to copy this and paste it into a HTML file (with a little luck you might be able to read it).

You are only interested in the 1-st line.

Apparently there is an Undefined index: Email_address in C:\wamp\www\socialeyes\index.php on line 57
