How do you know you don't have an error?  Do you have php errors enabled?  You aren't checking that the result of your query is valid either.  You exit without showing any of your results, not even an acknowledgement that it MAY have worked.

 

With that said - your query is bad.

Happy that you have solved this problem.  Something you should consider in future efforts.  The following line:

asdf

 

$result = mysqli_query($con,$sql);

 

holds the results of your query.  IF it ran successfully.  When it doesn't it contains 'false' - which you should always test for in order to be sure that you actually have results to play with.  Simply add:

$result = mysqli_query($con,$sql);
if (!$result)
{
     echo "Query did not run - error is ---";
    ( here you should show an error message from mysqli and decide what you want to do from this point on.)
}
