Question

I’m new to mysql queries and just couldn’t get this mysqli statement to insert into mysql. Is there something wrong with my script setup or my $sql? (I am getting no errors though, its just not inserting)

    <?php

$login = "coolkidz";  //this line insets into username
$sname = "heyu";
$city = "beautiful";
$empass = "awesome";
$eusername = "what";
$mcode = "nice";


$sql = "INSERT INTO login(sname, city, empass, eusername, mcode, username) VALUES('$sname', '$city', '$empass', '$eusername', '$mcode', '$login')");

    $hostname_Database = "censored";
    $database_Database = "censored";
    $username_Database = "censored";
    $password_Database = "censored";

    $mysqli = new mysqli($hostname_Database, $username_Database, $password_Database, $database_Database); 
    if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
       printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
       exit();
    }

    $result = $mysqli->query($sql);
    if (!$result) {
       printf("%s\n", $mysqli->error);
       exit();
    }
    ?>

Please update "..'$var'..." to  "..'" . $var . "'..." like ex:
=>
$sql = "INSERT INTO login(sname, city, empass, eusername, mcode, username) 
     VALUES('" . $sname . "', '" . $city . "', '" . $empass . "', '"
     . $eusername . "','" . $mcode . "', '" . $login . "')";
