GingerRobot Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 I think you would want to use UPDATE here...$query = "UPDATE photos SET comments='$comment_tmp' WHERE id='91'; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14369-inserting-data-with-where-condition/#findComment-56672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildteen88 Posted July 12, 2006 Share Posted July 12, 2006 You'll want to use an UPDATE statement rather than an INSERT statement. INSERT creates a new row into the database. Where as UPDATE can change fields within an existing row Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14369-inserting-data-with-where-condition/#findComment-56674 Share on other sites More sharing options...
