Inserting $_SESSION[] into DB

[chrima]

Hi all,
Are you able to insert the value of say

$_SESSION['customer'][1]

into a mySQL database.
I'm currently using the following code:

$result = mysql_query("insert into customer(customer_id, cookie_id, customer_first_name) 
values ('NULL', '$cart_id', '$_SESSION['customer'][1]')");

....but to no avail.
Can anyone tell me where i might be going wrong or will i have to assign a value to each like:

$customer_name = $_SESSION['customer'][1];

Cheers,
chrima

add curly brackets around the variable

{$_SESSION['customer'][1]}

or use PHPs . string seperator

$result = mysql_query("insert into customer(customer_id, cookie_id, customer_first_name) 
values ('NULL', '$cart_id', '" . $_SESSION['customer'][1] . "')");

this should do it.
