Syntax error...

I can't figure out how to query against an array...

(MySQL/PHP)

this gives no result (I know the pn's are good)

[code]
$list=array("900.026","900.859","900.809","900.669","900.667");

        $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM crosslist WHERE TPN in ('$list')")or die(mysql_error());
        while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
            {
            echo $row['TPN']." ".STR_PAD($row['TPN'],8,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT)."<br/>";;
            }
[/code]

Table structure if you want it...

# Table "crosslist" DDL

CREATE TABLE `crosslist` (
`CUST` varchar(8) NOT NULL default '',
`CPN` varchar(16) NOT NULL default '',
`CREV` varchar(9) NOT NULL default '',
`TPN` varchar(15) NOT NULL default '',
KEY `second` (`TPN`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 COMMENT='InnoDB free: 219136 kB; InnoDB free: 206848 kB; InnoDB free:'

<?php

$list = '"'.implode('","',$list).'"';
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM crosslist WHERE TPN in ($list)") or die(mysql_error());
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
    echo $row['TPN']." ".STR_PAD($row['TPN'],8,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT)."<br/>";;
}

So, without the implode, I was seeing the array, not the contents of the array?

The array is evaluated inside of the string to become the string "Array" because PHP converts it to that.

Implode() is used to put the contents of the array in a string that you can use in the query.
