I changed mysql_db_query() to mysql_query(). I took the quotes away from the id. It still gives me an error:
Error in query: SELECT label FROM menu WHERE id = 3 Where else could I be going wrong? -----Original Message----- From: Jason Wong [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 07, 2002 4:36 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [PHP] Database Error On Wednesday 06 March 2002 18:27, Navid Yar wrote: > I'm thinking that it probably has to do with the quoting scheme or > something else.

If 'id' is a numeric field then you should not use quotes: SELECT label FROM menu WHERE id = 1 If it's a character field then it doesn't matter whether you use single or double quotes. One thing you could try doing is to rewrite your code so that it doesn't use mysql_db_query() as it has been deprecated as of php-4.0.6. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk /* If Patrick Henry thought that taxation without representation was bad, he should see how bad it is with representation. */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
