I have a site on host gator. I can connect with my pdo statement but the statement for the insert doesnt seem to work. Right now I have defined the values but i plan to use variabled pulled from a $_POST from a form on the previous page.
<?php
/*** mysql hostname ***/
$hostname = 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx';
/*** mysql username ***/
$username = 'pressgym_admin';
/*** mysql password ***/
$password = '*******'; <-started out on purpose
try {
$dbh = new PDO("mysql:host=$hostname;dbname=pressgym_press", $username, $password);
/*** echo a message saying we have connected ***/
$qry = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO contact (Name, Email Address, Message, Date) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?');
$qry->execute(array('Brandon', 'Brandon.braner@gmail.com', 'test message', '3.12.12'));
echo 'entry succesfull';
}
catch(PDOException $e)
{
echo $e->getMessage();
}
?>
describe contact;
Name varchar(255) NO PRI
EmailAddress varchar(255) NO
Message longtext NO
Date varchar(255) YES
The SQL syntax in your prepare
command contains errors:
qry = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO contact (Name, Email Address, Message, Date) VALUES (?, ?, ?), ?');
should be
qry = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO contact (Name, `Email Address`, Message, Date) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)');
you have a syntax error. the following line
$qry = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO contact (Name, Email Address, Message, Date) VALUES(?, ?, ?), ?');
should be
$qry = $dbh->prepare('INSERT INTO contact (Name, Email Address, Message, Date) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)');
Update:
your column name Email Address contains a space escape it by using proper quote identifier like
INSERT INTO contact (Name, `Email Address`, Message, Date) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?)'
