insert string problems..

[Abandoned]

Hi..
I want to insert some data to postgresql..
My insert code:
yer="019"
cursor.execute("INSERT INTO ids_%s (id) VALUES (%s)", (yer, id))
I don't want to use % when the insert operation.

in this code give me this error:
psycopg2.ProgrammingError: syntax error at or near "'019'"
LINE 1: SELECT link_id from linkkeywords_'019'

if i do int(yer) , 019 change to 19 ..
How can i do int yer string with 0 ?

Also..
a="123,245,1235,663"
cursor.execute("SELECT id, name FROM data WHERE id in (%s)", (a,))
In this query must be:
SELECT id, name FROM data WHERE id in (123,245,1235,663)
but it looks:
SELECT id, name FROM data WHERE id in ("123,245,1235,663")
How can i delete " ?

Integers with a leading 0 are interpreted as base 8 (octal). You can't
write 019, because there is no digit "9" in octal.

Why do you need a leading zero?

You are executing an INSERT and get an error about a SELECT!? Hard to
believe!

But in both SQL statements you try to insert table names via placeholders.
This doesn't work as those placeholders are *values* that will be escaped.
The errormessage is quite clear IMHO::

SELECT link_id from linkkeywords_'019'

That's not a valid table name because of the ' that got added when
inserting the *value* '019'.

Starting to number tables and the need to dynamically create table names is
usually sign of a bad schema design BTW.
