Hi,
I have been stuck on this for ages.
Quite simply I am trying to update my database with an update command:
Code: $query="UPDATE `spence13_Portfolio`.`skillsList` SET `skillName` = '$newSkillName' WHERE `skillsList`.`ID` =$id";
This doesn't work even though if I change the line to read:
Code: $query="UPDATE `spence13_Portfolio`.`skillsList` SET `skillName` = '$newSkillName' WHERE `skillsList`.`ID` =7";
..then it does work. The variable $id does equal a number and I even use this code to convert it to an integer just incase it's read as a string:
Code: $id = $_POST[skillsListDropDown]; //this is say 7
$id = ((int)$id);
Can anyone please help me.
Thanks
