Hi PPL, Please see if you can solve this problem as its driving me crazy..its for a small affiliate program. I have a table with the folling structure: ** table stats(Id bigint,Month tinyint,Year int,Hits bigint) The client will be given a link like this ** http://mysite.com/affiliates/hit.php?id=155 then this will execute in the script (the connection part is done) ** update table stats set hits=hits+1 where Id=$Id and MONTH(now())=Month and YEAR(current_date)=Year /*The logic in the above is that I am updating "hits" by one only if "month" and "Year" match up, so I can track which affiliate has given me the most traffic, just 12 records for each client per year and excellient dynamic tracking......? */ but if the fields "Month" or "Year" do not match the update will not work and will not return anything right? so I want to execute this SQL then ** insert into stats values($Id,MONTH(now()),YEAR(CURRENT_DATE),1) Either i'm brain dead,tired,dumb,just overworked, or this one great problem....but I cant figure it out...... Any help appreciated, thanks in advance. -Ryan.
