gsashwin Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Hi, I am very new to PHP and I am trying to execute the below code but getting these errors : Notice: Undefined variable: mysql_query in C:\wamp\www\process.php on line 16 Fatal error: Function name must be a string in C:\wamp\www\process.php on line 16 Code: <html><body> <?php mysql_connect("localhost","root",""); mysql_select_db("encryption") or die(mysql_error()); $username = $_POST['username']; $password = $_POST['password']; $mysql_query("INSERT INTO login (username,password) VALUES ('$username','$password')") or die(mysql_error()); ?> </body></html> ` $_POST['username'] & $_POST['password'] come from a previous page. I have no problem with that. Please help.. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 You need to use mysql_query .. not $mysql_query(). In PHP variables start with a dollar, functions don't. That's what the second error is trying to tell you, and the first isn't technically an error but a notice; informing you that you're trying to use a variable that doesn't exist. Of course in this situation it's because it thinks you're trying to access the variable $mysql_query. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
