What's not working for you?  Do you get an error statement?

Are you sure that parameter "name" exists?

Where do you get the connection, "connection" ?

One style note ... It's good to avoid variable names that could possibly be
a reserved word anywhere along the line.  I suggest changing String query to
String myQuery, or String nameQuery or something less generic than "query"
