Please suggest what I have done wrong with the following lines of php:-
$MachineNum = $_POST['led']; // led is the variable in the html that calls this php
$SQL = sprintf("select a_date, a_time, amnt from register where mac_name
= %s and message_id = 34 or message_id = 35 order by a_date desc, a_time
desc", $MachineNum);
when I attempt to see what is in $SQL via a printf I get
select a_date, a_time, amnt from jackpot_register where mac_name = ''
and message_id = 34 or message_id = 35 order by a_date desc, a_time desc
I suspect that my C programming roots are showing but after a few hours of looking I am just getting frustated.
I have tried printing and there is nothing in $MachineNum and $_REQUEST & $_GET gives the same result, nothing.
I have also checked the HTML page that does the call and it definately says method="post"
