Basically you have a form (e.g. POST method) with data and a submit button.

When the form is submitted the data is passed to 'action' script that retrieves the data from the $_POST array.

After validating the data, construct the INSERT mysql command and issue that command.

This is very short, but the following tutorial will show you such a process tutorial
