Ok, I tried that. Here is the new code....
public void addInfo( String referer )
throws SQLException, Exception {
if (con != null) {
try{
PreparedStatement updateInfo;
updateInfo = con.prepareStatement(
"insert into info(?);");
updateInfo.setString(1, referer );
updateInfo.execute();
}
catch (SQLException sqle) {
System.err.println( "HELP" + sqle );
}
}
else {
error = "Connection with database was lost.";
throw new Exception( error );
}
}
Now, I get no error but the database does not get updated ? This is
basically my database - >
mysql> desc info;
+-------------+-----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------------+-----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| PRIMARY_KEY | int(11) | | PRI | 0 | |
| REFERER | char(200) | YES | | NULL | |
+-------------+-----------+------+-----+---------+-------+
Please help again :)

Also, looking at your code, you have a SQL syntax error. Only the mysql
command-line client requires statements terminated with a ";", so you
should write:
updateInfo = con.prepareStatement("insert into info(?)");
not:
updateInfo = con.prepareStatement("insert into info(?);");
