biggieuk Posted November 20, 2006 Author Share Posted November 20, 2006 I managed to get this working but still need a little help.What is the correct syntax for this:[code]<?phpif ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "booking")) { $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE session SET placesbooked= placesbooked +1 WHERE sessionid=%s,", GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenTA'], "text"),?>[/code]To add 1 to the table where session id = more than 'hiddenTA'?I tried:[code]<?phpif ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) && ($_POST["MM_update"] == "booking")) { $updateSQL = sprintf("UPDATE session SET placesbooked= placesbooked +1 WHERE sessionid=%s,%s,%s,%s", GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenTA'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenTP'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenFA'], "text"), GetSQLValueString($_POST['hiddenFP'], "text"));?>[/code]But get an error :(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 'T8'',''T20'',''F7'',''F20''' at line 1Thanks.

fenway Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 You need an IN() clause....WHERE sessionid IN ('%s','%s','%s','%s') Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/27854-update-function-not-working-correctly/#findComment-127613 Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggieuk Posted November 21, 2006 Author Share Posted November 21, 2006 I added the IN clause but get the error:Parse error: parse error, expecting `T_STRING' or `T_VARIABLE' or `T_NUM_STRING' in /u2/WWW/htdocs/pesdc/confirmation.php on line 36EDIT:Fixed this, forgot the " at the end of the IN statement ;)Thanks for your help.
