The simplest way I can think of is a database trigger. However, logging (i.e. keeping previous record values) is *usually* done in another table, not the same. There's a possibility of violating uniqueness, for example. Which columns can you update? All of them? If not, which ones?

It would help if you provided CREATE TABLE statement so that we'd have some more information.

Have a look at example I created some time ago. Adjust it so that it fits your needs.

Also, review results returned by Google.

Form doesn't do that; database trigger does.
