Haven't seen that this has been solved yet so I thought I'd throw my two
cents into the fray. First of all, I'd second the earlier suggestion that
you assign your query to a variable. And, second, I'd recommend that you
echo out your query to the browser just before it is submitted to the
database server. That way, you can actually _see_ what's being sent to the
server. I have found this to be an invaluable troubleshooting tactic and it
may help you find the root cause of your invalid MySQL result.
