Try..

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `forums` (name,category,desc) VALUES ('$name','$id','$desc')");

I dont know where the mattx_site comes from.. Is that the database name or something?

Cos if your connected to the database, then it should automatically know what database your looking in.

and the table is forums

Try..

$query = mysql_query("INSERT INTO `forums` (name,category,desc) VALUES ('$name','$id','$desc')");

try running the query in phpmyadmin and it should tell you any errors that the script may have, as, as far as i can see, theres nothing wrong with code.

Or you could always get round it by doing

$1 = mysql_connect(Database 1);
/*
Queries
*/
mysql_close($1);
$2 = mysql_connect(Database 2);
/*
Queries
*/
mysql_close($2);
