Henaro Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 Hello everyone~ I seem to have stumbled onto a terrible error today! It reads "Unknown column 'rname' in 'field list'". I googled it and I found that I needed apostrophes on my statements. But that doesn't seem to be working. Here is my statement: UPDATE boards SET rname='$r' WHERE number='$number' And the table: CREATE TABLE `boards` ( `number` int(3) NOT NULL auto_increment, `name` text NOT NULL, `rnames` int(1) NOT NULL default '2', `Description` text NOT NULL, `open` int(11) NOT NULL default '1', PRIMARY KEY (`number`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 ; MYSQL version is 5. I'm trying to change rname to what the user inputs. Any suggestions?

beebum Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 Your table has "rnames" plural and your command has "rname" singular. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/80812-solved-unknown-column-error/#findComment-410040 Share on other sites More sharing options...
