tryingtolearn Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Not sure if this needs to be in this forum or the php help forum Sorry if this is the wrong spot. I have an UPDATE Query that is failing when I include two enum fields in the query This updates the record w/ no problem $query = "UPDATE page2 SET title='$t', info='$a', cat_id='$ca' WHERE id=$editid"; $result = mysql_query($query); But when I do it like this(Show and access are enum fields) $query = "UPDATE page2 SET title='$t', info='$a', cat_id='$ca', show='$sho', access='$ac' WHERE id=$editid"; $result = mysql_query($query); I get 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 'show='hide', access='public' WHERE id=32' at line 1 Query: UPDATE page2 SET title='ffgd', info='ff22ff', cat_id='27', show='hide', access='public' WHERE id=32 This query worked on a server running an older version of mysql - this just started when I moved to this server running MYSQL Version 5.0.51a Any ideas?

tryingtolearn Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 I should add The table updates fine if I update it directly in phpmyadmin Dont know if that helps narrow things down a bit.
