my $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT * FROM logs where datetime like '?'")
or die $dbh->errstr;
print "Enter datetime: ";
while ($datetime = <>) {
my @data;
chomp $datetime;
$sth->execute($datetime) or die $sth->errstr;
then I am prompted to enter a date, which I can, but immediately after
that:
DBD::mysql::st execute failed: called with 1 bind variables when 0 are
needed at datetime.pl line 19, <> line 1.

If I define $datetime beforehand and interpolate it in the query, it
works, but I read here that it is not reccommended:
