### Asunto: [PHP] DUMB QUESTION I'M SURE
### 
### I'm just starting out, this is my script...
### 
### <?
### $name = $_POST['username'];
### $name = $name;
### $db = mysql_connect("localhost");
### mysql_select_db("vinyldealers",$db);
### $query = "SELECT shops.name FROM shops WHERE name = ".$name.";

you might also want to format the above like this:

$query = "SELECT shops.name FROM shops WHERE name = $name";

you're gonna get an error in your sql syntax otherwise

### $result = mysql_query($query);
### while ($record = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
###  while (list($feildname, $feildvalue) = each ($record)) {
###   echo $feildname. ": <B>" .$feildvalue. "</B><BR>";
###   }
###  echo"<BR>";
###  }
### ?>
### 
### This is the error I get...
### 
### Parse error: parse error, unexpected ':' in
### C:\Xitami\webpages\php\result1.php on line 12
### 
### I dunno what I'm doing wrong. Help please???
