I’m writing some PHP code to insert a value into my MySQL database:

INSERT INTO users_validate (uid, key) VALUES ('11', '4866ce5568850eb5f8daad79a8822d26')

Could anybody tell me what’s wrong with this?

Edit: The error message is

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'key) VALUES ('11', '4866ce5568850eb5f8daad79a8822d26')' at line 1

    Try to escape your column name key:

    INSERT INTO users_validate (uid, `key`) VALUES ('11', '4866ce5568850eb5f8daad79a8822d26')

    KEY is a reserved word in MySQL: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/reserved-words.html
