I think you must be missing the '{}' brackets, or something, because with this added to the snippet from before: $sql = "INSERT INTO inventory(image, year) VALUES('{$_FILES['image']['name']}', '$_POST[year]')"; echo '<h2>$sql = </h2><pre>'.PHP_EOL; var_dump($sql); echo '</pre>'.PHP_EOL; I get: $sql = string(58) "INSERT INTO inventory(image, year) VALUES('1.png', '2012')" which shows $_FILES['image']['name'] correctly interpolated to a string. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
