Hey
Your problem is in the database
I'm surprised how MySQL let you put a space in a field
In MySQL you can't have spaces, as far as I know
Try renaming the field by enteriig to the console and making the alter table
sentence and put Site_Name instead of Site Name. Then make the query again
and see what happens
mysql> create table d(autoinc int(4) primary key,Site Name varchar(30));
ERROR 1064: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near
'Name varchar(30))'
This is the error I get from MySQL Server when I try to create a field with
a space and check the solution:
mysql> create table d(autoinc int(4) primary key,Site_Name varchar(30));
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.14 sec)
This should fix your problem.
Best Regards to you
Alberto
