jammer Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hello I am a newbie working with PHP and SQL using MySQLi API and am really confused at how to call a certain function. I need to add a product to the data base with a price and description. The error is in the addProduct-handler.php @ Product::create($product); I am not even sure if i am callin it right, but it keeps coming up with this error: Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message '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 ')' at line 2' in /PhpStore/model/Product.php:26 Stack trace: #0 /PhpStore/admin/addProduct-handler.php(25): Product::create(NULL) #1 {main} thrown in /PhpStore/model/Product.php on line 26 now I am pretty sure the SQL is correct because i tested it and it allows me to insert, select, and drop tables. Does anyone have any ideas, thanks in advance for the help? <?php //new-product.php $file = basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); $title = "Add a new product ($file)"; ?> <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 TRANSITIONAL//EN"> <html> <head> <title><?= $title ?></title> </head> <body> <h2><?= $title ?></h2> <form action="addProduct-handler.php"> <table class="entry"> <tr> <td class="left">Price</td> <td><input type="text" name="price"/></td> </tr> <tr valign="top"> <td class="left">Description</td> <td><textarea name="dsc" rows="8"></textarea></td> </tr> </table> <input type="submit" name="add_product" value="Add Product"/> </form> </body> </html> <?php //addProduct-handler.php $top = dirname(dirname(__FILE__)); require "$top/model/Product.php"; $param = array_merge( $_GET, $_POST ); $price = $param["price"]; $dsc = $param["dsc"]; $esc_price = htmlspecialchars($price); $esc_dsc = htmlspecialchars($dsc); $title = "Added new Product"; $file = basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); $title .= "($file)"; echo "<h2>$title</h2>"; echo "price: $esc_price<br />"; //just for testing echo "description: $esc_dsc<br />"; echo "***Add Product<br />"; Product::create($product); ?> <?php //Product.php require_once "db/Database.php"; class Product { private static $table = "products"; private static $table_def = "id INT AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL, description TEXT, price DECIMAL(9,2), PRIMARY KEY(id)"; public function createTable() { $cx = Database::connect(); $table = self::$table; $table_def = self::$table_def; $cx->query( "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS $table" ) or die($cx->error); $cx->query( "CREATE TABLE $table ($table_def)" ) or die($cx->error); } public function create( $product ) { $cx = Database::connect(); $table = self::$table; $description = addslashes($product['description']); $price = $product['price']; if ( !$cx->query( "INSERT INTO $table (description,price) VALUES ('$description', $price)") ) throw new Exception($cx->error); } public function find( $id ) { $cx = Database::connect(); $table = self::$table; $res = $cx->query("SELECT * FROM $table WHERE id=$id") or die($cx->error); return $res->fetch_assoc(); } public function findAll( $fields = null ) { // if null, assume all fields $cx = Database::connect(); $table = self::$table; $field_list = ($fields != null) ? join(",", $fields) : "*"; $res = $cx->query( "SELECT $field_list FROM $table" ) or die($cx->error); $all = array(); while ($map = $res->fetch_assoc()) $all[] = $map; return $all; } } ?> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98216-php-5-mysql-funtion-call-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjaminbeazy Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 you're missing single quotes around $price in the create function of Product.php Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/98216-php-5-mysql-funtion-call-help/#findComment-502562 Share on other sites More sharing options...
