i swear i have never thought of that. Good result too. It wasn't
exactly what i thought. There was an extra space in the customer name.
thanks.
Yep, echoing what you are really sending to the database can save you
hours of pain...
You might also want to look at doing your SQL transactions this way (
http://au3.php.net/manual/en/functio...li-prepare.php ) it tends to
lead to more maintainable code and other advantages (for example is you
use prepared statements with Oracle (PHP 5.1-PDO version-
http://au3.php.net/manual/en/function.pdo-prepare.php ) they will be
optimised more readily by Oracle than straight text queries (I'm not
sure if this advantage is true for MySQL but it may be.)) I tend to do
this the OO way but there is no problem doing it procedurally way
either.
Hope this is some use to you...
