[SOLVED] Why Isn't This Working!? OMG!!!!!

[spiceydog]

I am getting this error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'to, date, from, subject) VALUES ('balls', 'p33n0r', '07/16/08', 'balls', 'balls'' at line 1

 

This is the script I'm using that it's obviously referring 2:

$query = "INSERT INTO messages (message, to, date, from, subject) VALUES ('$message', '$to', '$date', '$username', '$subject')";
    mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());

 

I have not slept in over 36 hours now... give me some slack.... lol

to and from are both MySQL reserved words. Avoid using reserved words as field names or table names. Although you can use `backticks` around reserved words, I'd strongly recommend changing your field names.

thank you!!!!

As is DATE, but apparently, it's context-sensitive reserved.
