ThePhpReaper Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Well, i made a simple website that lets user create new accounts and edit their account information. But at the edit script, the "UPDATE" query is having some problem. I tried alot to solve it, but can find any way... Herez the CODE: $query = "UPDATE registration SET firstname = '".$firstname."', WHERE user_id = '" . $_SESSION['user_id'] . "'"; mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); Error i am getting: 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 'SET firstname = 'Dave', WHERE user_id = '1'' at line 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/229275-error-in-update-query/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
flolam Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I guess it's the commas after registration and $firstname. Try removing them Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/229275-error-in-update-query/#findComment-1181368 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeDean89 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 The error you're getting is probably directed to the second comma you have in your query, see an updated query below. $query = "UPDATE registration SET firstname = '".$firstname."' WHERE user_id = '" . $_SESSION['user_id'] . "'"; mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); This should now work.
