Greg, You must specify the tablename :) Like this: UPDATE myTableName ... or mysql> UPDATE persondata SET age=age+1;
For the official syntax visit mysql language reference at http://www.mysql.com at http://www.mysql.com/doc/U/P/UPDATE.html Kind Regards, Richard Creech [EMAIL PROTECTED] 250.744.3350 Pacific Time Canada Dreamriver Software Powers the Net http://www.dreamriver.com You wrote: From: "Greg Sidelinger" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tue, 4 Dec 2001 22:27:20 -0500 Message-ID: <000d01c17d3c$c0a393e0$1000a8c0@asylum> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----=_NextPart_000_000E_01C17D12.D7CD8BE0" Subject: mysql update query I'm having trouble getting an update query to work Here is what I'm doing $result = mysql_query("update table set value1='$value1', value2='$value2' where id='$id'"); It is not updating the database. All the $vars have values and I'm using the correct columns names. Could someone please point me in the correct direction because I have been trying different things for a while but can't seem to get it to work.
