Then check the MySQL manual using the URL I posted! PHP doesn't care about the hundred or so reserved MySQL words. MySQL does. Perhaps you're confusing the two. Please check what I said: PHP != MySQL The documentation for each is separate. PHP has "convenience" functions for talking to a MySQL database. It does not parse or check your SQL statements for correctness - it just passes them along and lets the MySQL library do its work. PHP does this for a great number of products: cURL, GD functions, various ODBC interfaces, etc. It's up to you to read the support docs for those products to use them fully. The docs for PHP don't need to be cluttered with deep and detailed explanations of every supported interface, not would I expect them to. -----Original Message----- From: victor [mailto:siliconhype@yahoo.ca] I meant besides the UPDATE or SELECT or any filed that those words might interfere with... - Victor > www.argilent.com -----Original Message----- From: Mark Charette [mailto:charette@woodwind.org] hem. Why not check out the MySQL docs for reserved words (they _are_ right there ...): http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Reserved_words.html PHP Docs are for PHP. MySQL Docs are for MySQL.

Yep, figured it just now, thanks anyway, ahhh.. You'd thing they put reserved names right besides the damn mysql command in the manual. Alas it shall not be so.
