I have no problem updating integer and float fields when putting them in ''
if you update an integer with a blank value, it makes the value in the db
=0. always on unix and mysql, though.

Subject: RE: [PHP-DB] Huw do I perform update? I missed the accual code
bit.. sorry
Id news_id an integer?
$query = "UPDATE dvd.news_categories SET
newscategory='$newscategory',
newscat_status='$newscat_status' WHERE newscat_id='$newsid'";
^ if this is an
integer in the datebase then it wont update proproly.
Should look like this
$query = "UPDATE dvd.news_categories SET
newscategory='$newscategory',
newscat_status='$newscat_status' WHERE newscat_id = $newsid";
Hope this helps
Thank You
