I am trying to insert into a mysql db, which I've done a million times before, but it won't work this time! I've tried everything I can think of a million times over!

code snippet:

<?php
      $password
= md5($password);
     
mysql_query(\"INSERT INTO `$db[pre]users` (`id`, `username` , `password` , `email` , `aim` , `icq` , `msn` , `active` , `wesbsite` , `userlevel` , `comments` ) VALUES ('', '$username', '$password', '$email', '', '0', '', '1', 'http://', '1', '0')\");
?>

I also tried:

<?php
      $password
= md5($password);
     
mysql_query(\"INSERT INTO `$db[pre]users` (`username` , `password` , `email`, `active`, `userlevel`) VALUES ('$username', '$password', '$email', '1', '1')\");
?>

I tried a few others, but I knew they wouldn't work. I just did it to make sure Sticking out tongue

Try assigning your query to a variable ($query), then echo it out. I'm guessing that "`$db[pre]users`" isn't what your expecting.

So what you mean is set it to $query or something like that then echo it out? I'll try that real quick.
