Erdemir 0 Report post Posted June 7, 2008 I didn't use CMS before but as my php and sql knowledge, Can you write the structure of the table members. Maybe the fields `id`, `name`, `username`, `password`, `email`, `title` are not exist. And also can you write the line 1 from the beginning to the character ';' . Then maybe I can tell a definite solution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jlhaslip 4 Report post Posted June 8, 2008 run the queries individually using phpmyadmin to see if they work outside of the script.I am suspicious about the single quotes and semi-colons at the end of the Insert lines??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
demonlord 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2008 i did that to start out with, what i did was i went in to my phpmyadmin add the table and the fields manualy then i add the user william with all the right info and when it added it it showed me a box that had the queire in it and i clicked on get php code and i copyed and paseted that into my script. so i dont know what was wrong with it, but i was able to fix it by moving the second part: INSERT INTO `members` (`id`, `name`, `username`, `password`, `email`, `title`) VALUES ('2', 'John Smith', 'username', 'password', 'email@domain.net', 'Tech Support'); into the get_sql fuction in the script and it worked fine. so i'm not sure why it would not take it the way i had it. but oh well at least i got it fix.Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
