Hi
I have the following function:
function
add_item($item_name,$item_desc,$item_price,$item_man_id,$item_cat_id,$item_pix)
{
connect();
if($item_pix == "")
{
$sql = "INSERT INTO items
(item_name,item_desc,item_price,item_man_id,item_cat_id) VALUES
('$item_name','$item_desc','$item_price','$item_man_id','$item_cat_id')";
}
else {
$sql = "INSERT INTO items
(item_name,item_desc,item_price,item_pix,item_man_id,item_cat_id) VALUES
('$item_name','$item_desc','$item_price','$item_pix','$item_man_id','$item_cat_id')";
}
mysql_query($sql);
return;
}
I am using the if statement because i want it so that if no picture is
uploaded the entry is blank and the mysql database has a default entry
of na.gif which is a "picture coming soon picture".
It works fine when i run in localy on MAMP, but if i run it on my web
server it doesnt add the row.
You should be checking the mysql_query call for success and output the
error if it fails. Something like:
mysql_query($sql) or die('Insert failed: ' . mysql_error());
You'll now why it's failing then. Make sure you have error reporting
enabled.
Is this a compatability error? or is there a better way to write this?

Oh no i havnt =[ i thought i had but no i now get this error:
Insert failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to
use near 'Tactel', which is soft, breathable and quick drying and easy
to care for.
' at line 1
Which makes no sense.
This is the function:
function editproduct($item_id, $item_name, $item_desc, $item_price,
$item_pix, $item_man_id, $item_cat_id)
{
connect();
if($item_pix == "")
{
$sql = "UPDATE items SET item_name='$item_name',
item_desc='$item_desc', item_price='$item_price',
item_man_id='$item_man_id', item_cat_id='$item_cat_id' WHERE
item_id=$item_id";
}
else
{
$sql = "UPDATE items SET item_name='$item_name',
item_desc='$item_desc', item_price='$item_price', item_pix='$item_pix',
item_man_id='$item_man_id', item_cat_id='$item_cat_id' WHERE
item_id=$item_id";
}
mysql_query($sql) or die('Insert failed: ' . mysql_error());
return;
}
adn this is the process:
$item_id = $_POST['item_id'];
$item_name = $_POST['fname'];
$item_desc = $_POST["fdesc"];
$item_price = $_POST['fprice'];
$item_man_id = $_POST['fman'];
$item_cat_id = $_POST['fcat'];
$item_pix = $_FILES['pix']['name'];
$dest = 'images/items/'.$_FILES['pix']['name'];
$temp_file = $_FILES['pix']['tmp_name'];
move_uploaded_file($temp_file,$dest);
editproduct($item_id, $item_name, $item_desc, $item_price,
$item_pix, $item_man_id, $item_cat_id);
$message = 'Product Updated';
header("Location:admin.php?message=$message");
