Not the best solution, but add this to the above line...

$result = mysql_query ($query) or die(mysql_error());

Agreed.

I go even a bit further, like so:

$result = mysql_query($query) or die(report($query,__LINE__ ,__FILE__));

//====================  to show dB errors  ======================

function report($query, $line, $file)
   {
   echo($query . '<br>' .$line . '<br/>' . $file . '<br/>' . mysql_error());
   }

This does two things: 1) It tells where the error took place (line/file); 2) and it provides a single place in my entire project to turn-off dB error reporting -- all I have to do is comment out a single line.

Cheers,
