MySQL database large form tables - mysql

Question

I have a html form with 124 fields, where some fields are required and others can be omitted. What is the best way to get all the filled out fields to the database?
I have already tried making a MySQL table with all the fields setting the fields that can be omitted to NULL but it won't enter any values when I click submit on my form.
This is the html form:
<table border="1">
<tr>
<td>
<form name="createcomp" method="post" action="createform.php">
<table class="table table-striped" border="0">
<tr>
<td>
<select name="regtype" class="input-xxlarge" required="">
<option selected value="">
Please select registration type
</option>
<option value="form1a">
