Re: [PHP] error message ... never seen this one before.

Put single quotes around the strings in your sql statementS:

$sql2 = "SELECT id FROM store_name WHERE name = '".$name[$i]."'";
                                               ^             ^
if this does not help, print out the query strings.

I get this error.

Unknown column 'B' in 'where clause'

From this code.


$sql = "SELECT * FROM store";
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());
$store = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$count = mysql_num_rows($result);
$id = $store['id'];
$name = $store['name'];
$address = $store['address'];
$state = $store['state'];
$groups = $store['groups'];
for ($i=0; $i<$count; $i++) {
    $sql2 = "SELECT id FROM store_name WHERE name = ".$name[$i]."";
    $result2 = mysql_query($sql2) or die(mysql_error());
    $store_name = mysql_fetch_object($result2);
    $sql3 = "SELECT id FROM store_address WHERE address = 
".$address[$i]."";
    $result3 = mysql_query($sql3) or die(mysql_error());
    $store_address = mysql_fetch_object($result3);
    $sql4 = "SELECT id FROM store_state WHERE state_name = 
".$state[$i]."";
    $result4 = mysql_query($sql4) or die(mysql_error());
    $store_state = mysql_fetch_object($result4);
    $build_sql .= $id." - ".$store_name." - ".$store_address." - 
".$store_state." - ".$groups[$i]."<br>\n";
}

any thoughts?
