toplay Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 fulltext is probably a reserved word in MySQL so enclose that column name in back tick marks i.e. `fulltext` You might just want to do that to all your column names anyway.

I stuck the tickmarks in later, but I didn't know about the fulltext part. Thanks.
