Question

Is it possible to have an OR inside a WHERE statement in a mysql query as I have done below.

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM fields WHERE post_id=$id OR post_id="" order by id desc") or die(mysql_error());

This produces a server error when run on my site. Any thoughts on how I could accomplish this?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

what are the errors.. as such ur query is fine but u string problems with all these double quotes.. try something like this..

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM fields 
           WHERE post_id = " . $id . " OR post_id='' order by id desc") 
         or die(mysql_error());
