PHP

$product_name="Do U Speak Green? - Tiger Stripes Men's Crew Neck T Shirt";
 
addslashes($product_name);

$farr=pg_query("select * from product where product_name='$product_name'");
 
while($row1=pg_fetch_array($farr))
{
$product_id=$row1['product_id'];
 
echo "  -  ".$product_id;
}

So, your problem was not in line number 1?

useless suggestion.

wladimirbm 7-Aug-13 3:38am

look, in string line you have single quot like - '
when complete sql query to mysql sent line -
select * from product where product_name='Do U Speak Green? - Tiger Stripes Men's Crew Neck T Shirt'
and now count of quot - 3!!!
you search line = 'Do U Speak Green? - Tiger Stripes Men' and after this left symbols
because you must escape quot which in $product_name
for this have function http://www.php.net/en/function.addslashes.php, read please description, there is exsample for you

Why do you think I didn't see that? I saw that, I ignore that, cause his question does not say he has problem with his Query, his question says, he has problem with Syntax at line 1.
