i think the problem is bad syntax:
you should try:
mysql_query("update prod_list set prod_manu=$prod_man where sku='".$prod."'");
that is because when you have single quotes you will not evaluate the
expression so your querry will do the update only for sku equally with
the string '$prod'...
hope this help,

MU> ($query = "update prod_list set prod_manu=$prod_man where sku='$prod'")
