Hi I am very new to PHP so this is probably a silly question.
I am running apache version 2, php 5, MySQL 5 and dreamweaver MX 6.1
I have tested all of the above which work together fine. I have now created a connection in dreamwear to MySQL which works, but I have just used dreamweaver wizard to create a form for inserting into a database. but get the following error.
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 '' at line 1
Here is the code.
<?php require_once('Connections/TestConn.php'); ?>
<?php
function GetSQLValueString($theValue, $theType, $theDefinedValue = "", $theNotDefinedValue = "")
{
$theValue = (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? addslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
switch ($theType) {
case "text":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "long":
case "int":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? intval($theValue) : "NULL";
break;
case "double":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . doubleval($theValue) . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "date":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" . $theValue . "'" : "NULL";
break;
case "defined":
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? $theDefinedValue : $theNotDefinedValue;
break;
}
return $theValue;
}
$editFormAction = $SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
if (isset($SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$editFormAction .= "?" . htmlentities($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']);
}
if ((isset($POST["MM_insert"])) && ($POST["MM_insert"] == "form1")) {
$insertSQL = sprintf("INSERT INTO customers (CustomerName, TradingName, Address#1, Address#2, Town, County, PostCode, Telephone, FaxNo) VALUES (%s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s, %s)",
GetSQLValueString($POST['CustomerName'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['TradingName'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['Address1'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['Address2'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['Town'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['County'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['PostCode'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($POST['Telephone'], "text"),
GetSQLValueString($_POST['FaxNo'], "text"));
echo($insertSQL);
mysql_select_db($database_TestConn, $TestConn);
$Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $TestConn) or die(mysql_error());
$insertGoTo = "index.html";
if (isset($SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
$insertGoTo .= $SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
}
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
}
?>

Can anyone see anything obvious, or is there a version clash somewhere ?
