cardwell164 Posted February 8, 2014 Share Posted February 8, 2014 i just started learning pdo and read this tutorial. read everything that was on it and somehow im having this problem and im stuck. anyway here is the code that i wrote. <?php $id = 5; try { $conn = new PDO('mysql:host=localhost;dbname=pdotuts', 'root', ''); $conn->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION); $stmt = $conn->prepare('SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = :id'); $stmt->execute(array ( 'id' => $id )); while($row = $stmt->fetch()) { print_r($row); } } catch(PDOException $e) { echo 'ERROR: '. $e->getMessage(); } ?> i saved the file as index.php and ran it in my browser. for some reason its giving me this error "ERROR: SQLSTATE[42000]: Syntax error or access violation: 1064 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 'table WHERE id = '5'' at line 1". i have been trying to debug this thing but had no luck in correcting it. i am hoping that someone could help me with this. i would really appreciate it.

Solution mac_gyver Posted February 8, 2014 Solution Share Posted February 8, 2014 table is a reserved mysql keyword. if you really have a database table named table, rename it to something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
