My code inserts an empty record into the MySQL table "table1" instead of getting what inserted in the field "Name" in form1.html. Any idea why it inserts an empty record instead of what the user entered in the field?
form1.html

<form action="form1.php" method="post">
<input type="text" name="Name">
<input type="Submit" value="Submit" name="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
