I have an INSERT statement that I cannot quiet get working. The table that this data is being put into has 7 columns, but I only care about putting in the data from the first two columns at this time. The first column is an array element, and the second column needs to be a timestamp. Here is the INSERT statement: $query = "INSERT INTO accounts VALUES('".$accnts[0]."', 'TIMESTAMP(10)', , , , ,)"; Here is the error being displayed on the web page: You have an error in your SQL syntax near ' , , ,)' at line 1 Thanks in advance for the help.
