Are you trying to create a table named "How Are You"? If so, can't do it. It MUST be a one-word name.
You would have discovered this yourself had you typed your CREATE statement into the mysql command line. Second ALWAYS include an "or die("Error: ".mysql_error())" part after your mysql_query(). ----- Original Message ----- From: eat pasta type fasta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 16, 2002 4:13 PM Subject: [PHP-DB] Inserting a String Variable into mysql_query() returns "Query was empty" error I am creating a string out of bunch of variables and an array and I need it to become a query which will make me a table. It looks like this when I echo it: CREATE TABLE How Are You (Reply1 VARCHAR(255), Reply2 VARCHAR(255), Reply3 VARCHAR(255), Reply4 VARCHAR(255), Reply5 VARCHAR(255), date DATE) and it appears in the code under the name $all_sections, however when I put into the mysql_query function like so: $sql = mysql_query($all_sections); it returns "Query was empty" error, any ideas? Thanks in Advance.
