RE: [PHP] Troubles Inserting into MYSQL

2002-09-09 Thread bbonkosk

If you read:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-query.php
You will see what $sql4 can be.

My guess would be he is connected to 2 or more different databases, and this is 
specifiying which one to execute the query on.

mysql_query("INSERT INTO events ('user', 'detaildesc', 'index', 'reference',

Try this

if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO events (user, detaildesc, index, reference,
date_added)
VALUES ('" . $cookiewho . "', '" . $add_Williams . "', '', '" . $row_num .

First of all, seems there is extra stuff in the query that shouldn't be
there (what is $sql4?) and you may have parentheses out of place.

Ohmygosh.. That works...

if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO events_Williams (user, detaildesc, indexx,
reference, date_added) VALUES ('$cookiewho',
'$add_Williams','','$row_num','$last_update')", $sql4)
or print mysql_error();
}

inserts perfectly..

Shoudn't it be:

if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO events_Williams ('user', 'detaildesc', 'index',
'reference', 'date_added') VALUES
('$cookiewho','$add_Williams','','$row_num','$last_update')", $sql4)
or print mysql_error();
}
You need the '(' and ')' in your query to group VALUES

(And what's with all the escaping with '\'?  They don't appear to be
needed and make it look very cluttered, i.e. not very readable.

RE: [PHP] Troubles Inserting into MYSQL

2002-09-08 Thread Steve Gaas

This syntax fixes the syntax error..

if ($update_type == update_Williams) {
mysql_query("INSERT INTO events_Williams ('user', 'detaildesc', 'index',
'reference', 'date_added') VALUES \'$cookiewho\',
\'$add_Williams\',\'\',\'$row_num\',\'$last_update\'", $sql4)
or print mysql_error();
}

this is the output
You have an error in your SQL syntax near ''user', 'detaildesc', 'index',
'reference', 'date_added') VALUES \'sgaas-wil\', ' at line 1

Hello,

My code below always dies!  I've tried just about every iteration of the
values, etc..  Can anybody show me how to insert into MySQL a value?

"INSERT INTO events ('user','detaildesc') VALUES ('$user','$details')"

I just don't get it!
