eval($recss[sql1]).. variables inside a string have to be expanded
manually, since you're storing the variable names inside the DB, you
have to manually pull them out..
Sorry for not catching this earlier, I didn't realize the query itself
was stored in the DB.

All,
Here is the code that I'm using. I have a form that feeds that top
values to this page:

$pos = $_POST['sel_pos_name'];

//Gets the id,cat_name,sql1 field sql2 field and cat_descript from the table
$get_cat_info = "select Id,Cat_Name,Cat_Descript,sql1,sql2 from

$get_cat_info_res = mysql_query($get_cat_info) or die(mysql_error());

{

$cat_name1 = $recss['Cat_Name'];
$cat_descript = $recss['Cat_Descript'];
$sql1 = $recss['sql1'];
$sql2 = $recss['sql2'];
}
//Displays the top of the table
echo "<b>Results for $cat_name</b>";

if ($div == 'NFL')
{

$Results = $res['Results'];

echo "<td><center>$position</center></td>";

}
}
else
{

echo "<td><center>$position</center></td>";

echo "<td><center>$Results</center></td>";

echo "</table>";
}
}
?>
There are no functions and I'm using double quotes. In my table. I have
two fields sql1 and sql2.
Here are the values in each of the fields:
Sql1
select a.name,a.position,a.team,sum(b.yards) as Results from player
a,passing b
where
a.player_num = b.player_num
and a.position = '$pos'
and b.year >= '$year'
and a.team_div = '$div'
group by a.name
order by Results desc
Sql2
select a.name,a.position,a.team,sum(b.yards) as Results from player
a,passing b
where
a.player_num = b.player_num
and a.position = '$pos'
and b.year >= '$year'
group by a.name
order by Results desc
I'm stumped. I have tested each variable and they all come back, except in
the variables sql1 and sql2.
Thanks

can you show the code around it? are you using single quotes in defining the
sql statement? or double quotes?

Jason,
After looking at this a little more, the variable aren't being changed
into their value.
The echo looks like this:
select a.name,a.position,a.team,sum(b.yards) as Results from player
a,passing b where a.player_num = b.player_num and a.position = $pos and
b.year >= $year and a.team_div = $div group by a.name order by Results desc
limit '$display'
As you can see the variables aren't being changed, any ideas?
Thanks
-Rich

In your PHP page, can you echo the actual query variable to the browser and
send that to the mail group?
I don't necessary see anything 'wrong' with your query but see the three
variables, as they are interpreted by PHP, may help.
Thanks,

I am having a problem getting a sql statement to run.
I have this in a table called stat_categories, in a field called sql2
select a.name,a.position,a.team,sum(b.yards) as Results from player
a,passing b where a.player_num = b.player_num and a.position = '$pos'
and b.year >= '$year'
group by a.name
order by Results desc
limit '$display'
when I try to display this I get this error:
You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to
your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ''$display'' at
line 8
I tried removing the ''s but this didn't help.
If I put in the sql instead of the variable, it works fine. What am I
doing
wrong?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
-Rich
