  1. POSQL Error When Run In Site
    text
    copied!<p>I have a function that generates and runs an mysql update query. When I run the generated code in phpMyAdmin I have no troubles, however when I try running it from my site I get an error. What is odd is I am using the same format for several other update queries and they are working flawlessly.</p> <p>MySQL Query:</p> <pre><code>UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET `Pos_Name` = 'IT Specialist' WHERE `bio_positions`.`Pos_ID` = 63;UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET `Pos_Company` = 'CSG' WHERE `bio_positions`.`Pos_ID` = 63; </code></pre> <p>Error:</p> <pre><code>Could not get data: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET `Pos_Company` = 'CSG' WHERE `bio_position' at line 1 </code></pre> <p>Code Used To Generate MySQL Query</p> <pre><code>function update($rank, $name, $company) { if (!empty($rank) &amp;&amp; $rank !== $this-&gt;Pos_Rank) { $sql = "UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET `Pos_Rank` = " . $rank . " WHERE `bio_positions`.`Pos_ID` = " . $this-&gt;Pos_ID . ";"; } if (!empty($name) &amp;&amp; $name !== $this-&gt;Pos_Name) { $sql .= "UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET `Pos_Name` = '" . $name . "' WHERE `bio_positions`.`Pos_ID` = " . $this-&gt;Pos_ID . ";"; } if (!empty($company) &amp;&amp; $company !== $this-&gt;Pos_Company) { $sql .= "UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET `Pos_Company` = '" . $company . "' WHERE `bio_positions`.`Pos_ID` = " . $this-&gt;Pos_ID . ";"; } echo "&lt;br&gt;" . $sql . "&lt;br&gt;"; if (!empty($sql)) { $capc = new CAPC; $capc-&gt;query($sql); Bio_Position($this-&gt;Pos_ID); } } </code></pre> <p>Updated Update Function From Answers That Works</p> <pre><code>function update($rank, $name, $company) { $capc = new CAPC; $sql = "UPDATE `capc`.`bio_positions` SET "; $go = 0; if (!empty($rank) &amp;&amp; $rank !== $this-&gt;Pos_Rank) { $sql .= " `Pos_Rank` = " . $rank; $go++; } if (!empty($name) &amp;&amp; $name !== $this-&gt;Pos_Name) { if($go &gt; 0){ $comma = ","; } $sql .= $comma . " `Pos_Name` = '" . $name . "'"; $go++; } if (!empty($company) &amp;&amp; $company !== $this-&gt;Pos_Company) { if($go &gt; 0){ $comma = ", "; } $sql .= $comma . " `Pos_Company` = '" . $company . "'"; $go++; } $sql .= " WHERE `bio_positions`.`Pos_ID` = " . $this-&gt;Pos_ID . ";"; if (!empty($sql) &amp;&amp; $go &gt; 0) { //echo $sql . "&lt;br&gt;"; $capc = new CAPC; $capc-&gt;query($sql); } } </code></pre>
