If you mean did the pattern I'm trying to match: $team, contain what I though it should: 'footballSat' then yes it did. I also receieve no error message from MySQl.... The string in the table field I can view/alter in phpMyAdmin and I've tried matching $team in the query to the string as: footballSatfootballSun (etc etc) and also as: footballSat footballSun (etc etc).. Any ideas?? Many thanks.
