  Hello Cesar,

  A general tip for this kind of situation is:

  Try displaying the query you are running and then try to run the
  displayed SQL in the MySQL command line client.
  
  i.e. echo $query1, "\n";

  However, for this specific problem, you need to quote $user in your
  query.
  
Cheers!
