Barand Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 If you just want to change part of a column's value,[code]$srch = 'my.domain.com';$rplc = 'your.domain.com';$sql = "UPDATE tablename SET colname = REPLACE(colname, '$srch', '$rplc')"; [/code] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/15235-fastest-way-to-edit-database-content/#findComment-61559 Share on other sites More sharing options...
