Getting errors on code I have used before (Page view count)

Hey everyone,

 

So here is my problem. I have some code to display the amount of views that page has got. In this case it is the thread in my forums section. I have used the same code to show how many people have views a certain persons profile page and that works fine but when I use it on my forum thread page I get this 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 'WHERE id='20' LIMIT 1' at line 1

 

Here is the section of code:

 

<?php
$thread_id = preg_replace('#[^0-9]#i', '', $_GET['id']);
$getThreadViews = mysql_query("SELECT view_count FROM forum_posts WHERE id='$thread_id' LIMIT 1") or die (mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($getThreadViews);
$counter = $row['view_count'];

if($counter == 0){
$counter = 1;
$startCounter = mysql_query("INSERT INTO forum_posts (view_count) VALUES ('$counter') WHERE id='$thread_id' LIMIT 1") or die (mysql_error());
}

$threadViews = $counter+1;
$appendCounter = mysql_query("UPDATE forum_posts SET view_count='$view_count' WHERE id='$thread_id'") or die (mysql_error());

?>

 

I have checked that there are no spelling errors so just wanted to show it to a fresh pair of eyes because its really starting to annoy me.

 

Thanks in advance for any help.
