As the manual states, the execute method you're using will return true if it succeeded or false if it failed (http://php.net/pdostatement.execute). You can then use the errorInfo method to get details of the actual error ( http://php.net/pdostatement.errorinfo). The best piece of advice I can give you if you're just starting out is... only ever assume that all of the code you write will fail, and make sure it handles failures appropriately. Any other assumptions are likely to come back and bite you on the arse one way or another. Oh, and read the manual entry for every function, class and method you're using thoroughly! -Stuart -- Stuart Dallas 3ft9 Ltd http://3ft9.com/
