php code: $result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
This always tells me what I did wrong in the query. You could easily put together a very short script into which you just drop you query. THis would output the problem to the page. Dead simple and quick.

Even though I solved the following problem myself, I'd like to know what debugging strategy people use to solve problems when they get the dreaded "Error in Mysql look in the manual"
Fire up MySQL CC and paste the SQL in there, and see what error it gives me. As in 'You have an error near....' type messages.
