I'm trying to get this query to work. [code] PHP Code: $name = $_POST['name']; $bads = array(".", "/", ",", "&", "-", "@", "#", "%", "*", "(", " ", ")"); $newname = str_replace($bads,"",$name); $score = $_POST['score']; $connect = mysql_connect("test", "test", "test"); mysql_select_db(test, $connect) or die(mysql_error()); $query = "INSERT INTO dynamic_scores (" . $newname . ") VALUES ('$score')"; mysql_query($query);[/code] However, this query definitely won't insert a row into the database. If I use a normal column name, instead of setting it to a variable, then it works...but I want to use the variable. Any ideas?
