Question

I am trying to store data into database. if i am using the following code

$sql="INSERT INTO rohit(content,tags,uniquefield,required)
        VALUES('$l','$y','$z','$t')";
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con))
  {
  die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
  }

it is running but when i am adding one more field then it is giving error check mysql syntax

$sql="INSERT INTO rohit(content,tags,uniquefield,required,numeric)
        VALUES('$l','$y','$z','$t','$n')";
if (!mysql_query($sql,$con))
  {
  die('Error: ' . mysql_error());
  }

i have defined all the fields in database. what may be the possible error

Answer 1

numeric is a reserved word. Place it in tics to escape it:

$sql="INSERT INTO rohit(content,tags,uniquefield,required,`numeric`)VALUES('$l','$y','$z','$t','$n')";
