Hiya folks: I wish to be able to select items from MySQL if a variable passed via the $_GET method to my PHP4 page is introduced thus: $sql = "SELECT TourName,TourID,$_GET[CatID] IN (TourCatID) FROM tour"; When I echo $sql to the page, the query looks fine but doesn't work, in as far as the wrong results are returned. MySQL doesn't throw up an error either. I'm using MySQL 3.23.49-nt-log. Can anyone enlighten me please ??
