Well, you're burying a PHP conditional inside what should be the SQL query,
which ain't gonna work very well. Try separating it out -- two possible
ways are to (i) use the ?: conditional operator, like this:
$sql = "UPDATE newdacs"
. " SET emailfwd='$emailfwd'"
. ",mformat='$mformat'"
. ",filter_code='$filter_code'"
. ($FUNC=='USERPOST' ? ",unote='$unote'" : '')
. " WHERE user_id='$user_id'";
or (ii) a fully-blown if(), like this:
$sql = "UPDATE newdacs"
. " SET emailfwd='$emailfwd'"
. ",mformat='$mformat'"
. ",filter_code='$filter_code'";
if ($FUNC=='USERPOST'):
$sql .= ",unote='$unote'"
endif;
$sql .= " WHERE user_id='$user_id'";
There are probably umpteen other ways of approaching this -- use whatever
floats your boat! ;)
Cheers!
