Question

I know which column should be called in a table ..for example

table name is “table1”;
column name is “name”;
search is “$query”;

Now I query MySQL like this

mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE name='$query'");

Is this the right way to call?? I feel it took more time. any suggestions??

Answer 1

I normally do this;

mysql_query("SELECT * FROM table1 WHERE name='" . $query . "'");

But you also need to be aware of SQL injection….
