The ? is for quoting field values rather than entering table or field names.
"SELECT * FROM $table" is probably what you want.

Hello,
I am having a problem with a very simple task and I don't see where the fault
is.
The first query works with problem but the second one fails with this error:
./test.pl
OK 1
DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the
manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to

Does anyone know where the problem is?
