I'm using MySQL for about 2 years and never heard about this kind of INSERT. Is not SQL compliant neither. YOU CAN NOT MAKE : INSERT INTO table SET var=1 [as I know] Try to search for the INSERT INTO syntax. You combined INSERT INTO and UPDATE syntax. Tip for insert: INSERT INTO table(field1, field2) VALUES($field1, $field2) If your code is totally wrong please read an sql manual first, then try to post.
