Hi,
How have I to write the sql-statement if I want to use variables
like this:
<?
...
$sql="SELECT * FROM Table WHERE ID=$recordset";
$result=mysql_db_query($database,$sql);
...
?>
Don't. http://xkcd.com/327/
The value of the variable can have the value of another recordsetloop
or a value come from outsite the script.

Your SQL layer should allow placeholders so you can do
(as done in DBI.pm )...
my $sql = <<';';
SELECT * FROM TABLE
WHERE ID = ?
;
my $sth = $dbh->prepare($sql);
$sth->execute(123);
my @row = $sth->fetchrow_array; # or hash or whatever
.
.
.
If your SQL layer does NOT allow placeholders, get a different one.
