Thanks for the reply and the idea. I tried using a generic die () and it still is giving me troubles. I don't even necessarily need the debug info. I just need this to run the php code to make the db changes.
Does anyone else have any thoughts or ideas? What about different ways to implement this? What if I created a form for each one with jQuery forms and then submitted it via ajax that way? I'm worried that whatever I do I need to figure out this ajax issue or I will have problems with that too.
Thanks for any input you can offer.
