RE: WHERE doesn't work

[Nicolas Verhaeghe]

Magic quotes replaces the ' with '' so that when you execute an SQL query,
it is encoded properly.

Or else someone could put a single quote in a form field and screw up your
database.

I do not like magic quote myself.

But we're going OT.

Echo the UPDATE query itself and then copy/paste it here that way we'll see
what is wrong.

Maybe the $id variable is not replaced with the proper content.

    WHERE doesn't work. Iwrite WHERE in the command for UPDATE exactily one 
record, defined by id = $id, and mysql server UPDATE all the records in the 
table.

    I dont know what is magic quotes, but, from phinfo.php:
