Question

PHPMyAdmin says the following query is not correct because of the { and } usage.

UPDATE jos_content 
SET `fulltext` = REPLACE(`fulltext`, 
              'onclick="return hs.expand(this)"',
              'onclick="return hs.expand(this,{slideshowGroup: 'popupimage'})"')

What’s the right way of putting this query?

And what if I want it to search in the whole db (not just in the jos_content table)?

Answer 1

That’s not incorrect because of the {, it’s incorrect because of the unescaped single quotes in ‘popupimage’ (as you can see from the syntax highlighting here).

Corrected:

UPDATE jos_content 
SET `fulltext` = REPLACE(`fulltext`, 
              'onclick="return hs.expand(this)"',
              'onclick="return hs.expand(this,{slideshowGroup: \'popupimage\'})"')
