insert.php

Code:

<?



        // opening connection and seting for errors

        include "../lib/lib.php";

        //error_reporting(5);

        $ctname=getPost("nhead");        

        $count=getPost("nmsg");

        $slink=getPost("score");

        $livematch=getPost("lmatch");

        $slink=getPost("score");        

        $rlink=getPost("rlink");

        $olinkurl=getPost("olinkurl");        

        $strQuery="insert into news(nheading,ndetail,ndate,scorebord,livematch,ratting,olinktitle,olinkurl)

         values('$ctname','$count',sysdate(),'$slink','$livematch','$rlink',

         '$olinktit','$olinkurl')";

        Update($strQuery);

        header("Location:view_news.php");

?>

the problem is in description of news, in mysql database i have kept the data type of "nmsg" is "TEXT"

Re: data is not being update

The looks pretty simple, there seems to be no problem at all. TEXT type allows 65535 characters, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Try to debug the SQL query by printing it out, and check for any syntactical errors.

Re: data is not being update

you right! but i am still face problem......actually there is no error outcome.

some time if i add heading, and let say i add only one line it do take and save it in database...

Re: data is not being update

e.g

in description i am try to add

Player of the Year Award
Ricky Ponting (Australia)

Test Player of the Year Award
Ricky Ponting (Australia)

ODI Player of the Year
Michael Hussey (Australia)

but when i add the same...but add more in it it do not insert

Player of the Year Award
Ricky Ponting (Australia)

Test Player of the Year Award
Ricky Ponting (Australia)

ODI Player of the Year
Michael Hussey (Australia)

Women's Player of the Year
Karen Rolton (Australia)

i noted that when i remove the (single quote) after the women's i do insert...

what is this problem i dont think this might be an error..

Re: data is not being update

' holds a special meaning in the SQL of end of string and so is the problem.

Re: data is not being update

oky fine but this problem didnt occur before two month ago...it used to word accurately

any how thanks for your help...

Re: data is not being update

Probably becauase either you did not had ' in the data you were inserting or had the delimiter backslash for it.

Re: data is not being update

well i need to know that solution of this problem...

correction in last post

oky fine but this problem didnt occur before two month ago...it used to work accurately
