try :
$updateSQL ="UPDATE `mytable` SET thetotal=$amt WHERE
id={$_SESSION['thisid']}";
or even better:
$updateSQL ="UPDATE `mytable` SET thetotal=".mysql_real_escape_string($amt).
" WHERE id=".mysql_real_escape_string($_SESSION['thisid']);
substituting mysql_real_escape_string with the escape function for your
database.
