MySQL before update trigger an insert syntax error using PhpMyAdmin

Question

 CREATE TRIGGER question_preserver BEFORE UPDATE ON bank
 FOR EACH ROW
 BEGIN
 IF TRIM(NEW.question) != TRIM(OLD.question) THEN
 INSERT INTO bank_question_history (id,old_question) VALUES (OLD.id,OLD.question)$$
 END IF$$
 END$$

I am inserting that query into Mysql using PHPMyAdmin's SQL window, using a delim of $$. I get an error 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 '' at line 5 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 '' at line 5

I'm sure it's something obvious and I'm just missing it, but no matter what I try I can't get it to work. The error is not helpful at all, and from what I have researched I am doing this exactly like 4-5 examples I found.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

Go figure I figured it out right after asking.

 CREATE TRIGGER question_preserver BEFORE UPDATE ON bank
 FOR EACH ROW
 BEGIN
 IF TRIM(NEW.question) != TRIM(OLD.question) THEN
 INSERT INTO bank_question_history (id,old_question) VALUES (OLD.`id`,OLD.`question`);
 END IF;
 END$$

You have to use ; to break each statement/command and your delim $$ to end the entire trigger.
