Re: [WEB400] Why does this SQL Insert Fail






Ah!!! Thanks Tim!

Adding that call to the Mysqli_error() did the trick!

The MySQL did not like my dashes in my table name!

Once I took them out and renamed the table, it worked fine.

Wow! I don't think I would have ever thought of that on my own.

Thanks again!

You can get the error text by using the mysqli_error function.

So, something like:
$result = mysqli_query($cxn, $query)

or die("Unable to insert record: \n"."Transmittal Batch Num:
".$XmittalBatchNum . " -- Error was:" . mysqli_error($cxn));
