Mysql UPDATE Syntax
what is wrong with this code? It generates no erros, but doesn't work either:
$query = "UPDATE $usertable SET dl=dl+1 WHERE id=$id";
$result = MYSQL_QUERY($query);
There is a unique id number for every row in my table. There is also a column called "dl" which holds the number of downloads certain files have gotten. I'm trying this code on my download page so that every time someone downloads a file (identified by its id number) the "dl" column for that file is incremented.

Mysql Update/replace Syntax
To keep track of how many fruits my visitors buy, I use a mySQL database (2 columns: "fruit" and "quantity")....so can we make these following mySQL queries work somehow? (visitor buys 5 apples): replace into fruit_database set fruit = 'apple' , quantity = quantity + 5; (visitor buys 7 apples): replace into fruit_database set fruit = 'apple' , quantity = quantity + 7; (visitor buys 1 grape): replace into fruit_database set fruit = 'grape' , quantity = quantity +

MySQL Update Query - Syntax Error Pops Up
I'm using this query for an update form: Code: $sqlUpd = "UPDATE employee SET fname = '$fname', lname = '$lname', title = '$title', email = '$email', id = '$id', pass = '$pass', all='$all', prepare_user_quotes = '$prepare_user_quotes', manage_jobs='$manage_jobs', manage_users='$manage_users', add_employee='$add_employee', add_process='$add_process', add_news_story='$add_news_story', add_dyk_tip='$add_dyk_tip', create_mail_list='$create_mail_list' WHERE unique_id='$val'" OR die(mysql_error()); but always seem to get a syntax error. I've tried all the available methods, but still syntax error pops up. This is the error I'm getting: Code: 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 'all=Ƈ', prepare_user_quotes = Ƈ', manage_jobs=Ɔ', manage_users=Ɔ', add_emplo' at line 1

I keep getting 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 '' at line 2 When I use the script below.

Trouble With UPDATE - You Have An Error In Your SQL Syntax
I'm having some trouble getting my database to update. This is my first attempt at PHP and MySQL and so far I'm doing well. I just used some of the code from the tutorials on this site and changed them to suit my needs. Everything works except updating the database. Clicking edit swaps a row in a table with a form that should allow me to update the entry. Here is the error it throws. 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 '' at line 3 I have followed the correct syntax as far as I can tell, but like I said, this is my first time with PHP and MySQL. Following is all my code (minus CSS which has nothing in it really) with the appropriate sections highlighted. Code:

Little POST And MySQL Update ( Combining Search And Multiple Record Update )?
Well after scratching my head for too long, I give in, I've got to ask or I'll go crazy! I've been fiddling with PHP/MySQL again recently and although I successfully get a search of the db via a form field and have found a way* of adding a checkbox and update multiple records (a popular request I think!), my next hurdle is combining them. I was hoping I could mash the script together (logically with my limited knowledge) to produce a 3 stage script. Page1 would send Page2 the search term (works so far) and then Page2 would send itself(and the db) those recorded selected for updating. So far, when I try to I'm getting many errors, and I believe they occur because the script is trying to get information that's not there (from the search). Also it's because I've tried to modify existing code and I'm really guessing now :-( Here's the code on the second page, the first page simply has a $_POST in it and then the second page collects that info: [Code]... It might be worth knowing that security isn't an issue as this script is run offline via WAMPServer (a brilliant freebee for testing!). Well, I really look forward to any comments,

SQL Syntax To Update Records With Diff'rent Function Generated Random PINS
I use a function, myrandomPIN (), to generate random PIN numbers. The following sql query updates records with the SAME PIN number but. I want to generate DIFFERENT pin numbers for every record. The function is ok but I can't figure out how to run it individually for each record. In other words I do not know the correct syntax to use UPDATE in a loop (if necessary) so that a different call to the function is done every time or ecah record ends up with a different PIN. Or may be this can be done with a single mysql_query($sql2)? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- $qr = @mysql_query($sqlb1) or die("ERROR"); $rs1 = mysql_fetch_array($qr); $thepin=myrandomPIN(); $sql2="UPDATE clients SET pin='$thepin' WHERE code='".$thecode."'"; $qr = @mysql_query($sql2) or die("ERROR""); --------------------------------------------------------------------------

PHP Saying Error In Mysql Syntax, But Written My Mysql Query Browser!
I have a basic db that I access with MySQL query browser. Everything seems fine to me but I am using this db as part of a php shopping basket and when I try to add an item I get: Notice: Query failed: 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 '>function.extract]: First argument should be an array in functions.inc.php on line 31 Notice: Undefined variable: price in functions.inc.php on line 36 Notice: Undefined variable: price in functions.inc.php on line 39 Notice: Undefined variable: total in unctions.inc.php on line 39 I'm assuming the last three are caused by this problem as price should be passed to the cart, and total is worked out using it. However although I know mySQL code it was the MySQL query browser that actually generated the code and I cannot see a way to view or debug the code. The db has one table in it which is made up of id, name, subname, desc, and price. The code in the php file that is being referred to is:

MySQL Syntax Error At Line 5 No Mysql Stuff Anywhere

Mysql Syntax
sorry to cross post this, but i know most of you at least dabble with mysql, and this forum seems a bit more active than the mysql one so here goes... This is what i'm trying to do..... IF EXISTS (tablename) #update some fields ELSE CREATE TABLE tablename( #fields ); INSERT INTO tablename all the values i need. Seems straight forward, but can't figure it out Tried every permutation of IF TABLE EXISTS and also tried IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM tablename) but they both give errors. Thanx for any help with this one, it's driving me nuts.
