That's an odd statement to make, given that you know the script doesn't work. Try executing your queries from some other client program (such as mysql). Then you can see whether or not they really work as you expect. Also, when you say you're getting NO errors!, how do you know? Are you checking the result of *every* MySQL-related function call to make sure that they succeed. If you're not, you're shooting yourself in the foot. > >If anyone can help me, I am looking for the following information: > >If anyone has seen a similar problem before... >If anyone can say if they think it's a configuration problem on the server... > >If I can confirm that the problem is on their end, I will take any >replies to this and send it to the fast.net support and insist that >they help me. > >Even better, if you really think it's a problem on my end, I will >work with someone individually and give copies of my code. > >Thanks! > >Lisa > > >--------------------------------------------------------------------- >Before posting, please check: > http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) > http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) > >To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Trouble unsubscribing?
