[PHP] SQL Query syntax error... Help?
I've only been trying to learn this stuff for a few days and thought I was on a roll, but now have run into a problem I don't get at all. In my script I have the following sql query and am receiving the following error when it executes "You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1." Any idea what my problem is? I removed the WHERE id=$id and it works, but updates every record of course :( I'm lost here. Thanks for any help. $sql ="UPDATE members SET ". "name='$name', ". "email='$email', ". "icq='$icq', ". "password='$password', ". "loginid='$loginid', ". "countryid='$countryid', ". "gtlogin='$gtlogin', ". "gtpass='$gtpass', ". "swirvelogin='$swirvelogin', ". "swirvepass='$swirvepass' ".

What do you have in the id variable? It's contents can be the problem. regards, Augusto Cesar Castoldi On Sun, 15 Apr 2001, Scott VanCaster wrote: I've only been trying to learn this stuff for a few days and thought I was on a roll, but now have run into a problem I don't get at all.

Re: [PHP] SQL Query syntax error... Help?
id is the primary key for the table. If I add echo ($id); before the query it echos a 15, which is correct. Well, it's the right id for the test person I'm logged into the site as anyway. I'm missing something here :) "Augusto Cesar Castoldi" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message Pine.A41.4.32.0104151924060.11846-10@marte">news:Pine.A41.4.32.0104151924060.11846-10@marte...

I "think" I tried that. Let me go try that again to be sure. Oh, and what's STDOUT ? I'm just getting started here and haven't even seen that yet :) I can't believe how fast the responses are either.

I changed $id to '$id' No more error, but nothing updates. Assuming it's because with the single quotes nothing in the table matches?

RE: [PHP] SQL Query syntax error... Help?
scott, try the entire SQL statement without single quotes around those variables. except for when your setting the WHERE part. Try: $sql ="UPDATE members SET ". "name=$name, ". "email=$email, ". "icq=$icq, ". "password=$password, ". "loginid=$loginid, ". "countryid=$countryid, ". "gtlogin=$gtlogin, ". "gtpass=$gtpass, ". "swirvelogin=$swirvelogin, ". "swirvepass=$swirvepass ". "WHERE id='$id'" ; I could be wrong though, but just my two cents. chris www.variancecreations.net -Original Message- From: Scott VanCaster [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, April 15, 2001 5:20 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] SQL Query syntax error...

Re: [PHP] SQL Query syntax error... Help?
In the future, to make things easier on yourself, when you get a query syntax error add an "echo $sql;" line right before your query. Almost every time I have a query problem, that solves it. -- Plutarck Should be working on something... ...but forgot what it was.
