I'm really having some car issues with my not starting it isn't the battery auto zone said it fine. ?

When it gets a jump it starts up but once we take the jumping cable off it dies again. What puzzles me is the the fact the the head lights would still be on!!

Answer:
The alternator is the problem. The fact that you have to jump it says the battery has lost it's charge. This is because the alternator has failed to keep it charged. If the alternator was good it will produce enough power to keep it running after you disconnected the jumper cables . When you replace the alternator the battery should be fully charged before you start it so the new alternator doesn't have to go full blast charging it when you start it . It could fry it.

Maybe it's the starter?
your alternator is done
Your battery has got to be bad. Have your battery and alternator tested somewhere else. Its one or the other or both. If you gotta jump start it then your battery has to be bad no other way it could be anything else.
