I turned off magic quotes and tried that, it dident work. and withought the addslashes it still gives the same error Query failed: Unknown column 'something' in 'where clause' is there anyway to get it to look like the one that did work \'code_data\'' i also tried to use $str = $_GET['code'] and it used $str as the name lol. also it works with just $_GET when i add this into the URL [a href=\"http://localhost/codelist.php?code='pso'\" target=\"_blank\"]http://localhost/codelist.php?code='code'[/a] the ' ', is there syntax for this so i can place into that code without error. edit: nm i got it to work by adding that into the url thanks.

This is what it echos as the mysql error. Query failed: Unknown column 'something' in 'where clause'

i cant get it to work if i try to use $_GET. heres the code that does. $query = 'SELECT * FROM codes WHERE code = \'code_data\''; now when i tried $query = 'SELECT * FROM codes WHERE code = '.addslashes($_GET['code'])''; it says that it cannot find that row.
