Hello, Is it possible to put variable operators in queries? I tried this (the real variable comes from a form) $Date_Operator =(">="); sql="SELECT * FROM poeple WHERE age $Date_operator 20"; $result_id = mysql_query($sql); It doesn't work like this. I also tried: sql="SELECT * FROM poeple WHERE age \"$Date_operator\" 20" $result_id = mysql_query($sql); it didn't work either. Or should I use a have to make a IF-Then construction? If $Date_Operator == (">=") then { sql="SELECT * FROM poeple WHERE age >= 20" } etc... Can anybody help me with this? Thanks in advance! -- Met vriendelijke groet / With Greetings, Sander Peters site: http://www.visionnet.nl/ email: mailto:s.peters@visionnet.nl webmail: mailto:sanderpeters@yahoo.com
