Question

I have a weird problem in mysql with php

I am running this query with PHP’s mysql_query function.

Assume that view_counter = 30

UPDATE cini_gallery_data SET view_counter = view_counter+1 WHERE id = '10'

After this query

view_counter is 32 or sometimes 33 instead of 31

I have checked for duplicate queries also.

Whats wrong with this? It’s so weird.

EDIT: php code i have used.

if(!mysql_query("UPDATE cini_gallery_data SET view_counter = view_counter+1 WHERE id='10'")){
    die(mysql_error());
}

Answer 1

As you edited your question, and you said that you are not able to increment the counter, I guess you’ve set your id field or view_counter on AUTO INCREMENT

Previous Answer :

This is wrong

WHERE = '10'

You forgot to add column name in your WHERE clause, It should be

WHERE column_name = '10'
