Question

I’m having another problem with this exercise: http://lpmj.net/20.php

My problem is that when i go to create a new account, I get the error message:

Unknown column ‘user’ in ‘where clause’

I’ve had so many typos at this point that my code is exactly the same as the code in the book.
There is only one query in this section that it could be:

$query = "SELECT * FROM rcmembers WHERE user='$user'";

I’m assuming this means user doesn’t exist. how do i create it? isn’t it set up at some other point in these lessons?

Answer 1

It means user does not exist within rcmembers. Use something such as PHPMyAdmin to create it.
