You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds ....

[Username:]

$pastelink = "<br /><a href='view.php?paste=$lol&language=$language'>$name</a>";
mysql_query("INSERT INTO recent (url) VALUES ('$pastelink')");

 

That query won't run, however if I do this:

 

$test = $_POST['name'];
//$pastelink = "<br /><a href='view.php?paste=$lol&language=$language'>$name</a>";
mysql_query("INSERT INTO recent (url) VALUES ('$test')");

 

It will run, is this because of the single quotes in $pastelink?

 

& If so, how can I fix it?

[dragon_sa]

have you tried like this

$pastelink = '<br /><a href="view.php?paste=$lol&language=$language">$name</a>';

[Username:]

have you tried like this

$pastelink = '<br /><a href="view.php?paste=$lol&language=$language">$name</a>';

 

Appreciate the help, but already solved.

 

Also that is wrong.
