RE: Add Fields

Yeah I could do that but the average user will not have more than 3 or 4 and
honestly its more of a pain to add new, add new, add new 3 or 4 times for
the user. This way its all done on 1 page in 1 shot.

The way I would handle this is to add a new table (1->Many) this way you can
allow the user to enter as many fields they want.
example:
CREATE TABLE profile_addons (
id int(10) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
profile_id int(11) unsigned NOT NULL,
name varchar(75) default NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ;
