Newbie question

Hi there, I'm really really new to both PHP and MySQL, so this is probably going to turn out to be an easy fix. The basis is this: I have a MySQL database with two tables in it. I'm trying to update 1 of the fields (aqfl_team) in the first table (nfl_players) with a value from a field (aqfl_team) from the second table (temp_aqfl_rosters). The PHP document looks like this: <html> <body> <?php $db = mysql_connect("localhost","root","password"); mysql_select_db("aqfl",$db); $aqfl_result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM temp_aqfl_rosters"); echo "Updating rosters....."; $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($aqfl_result); do { $aqfl_player_first = $myrow["first_name"]; $aqfl_player_last = $myrow["last_name"]; $aqfl_player_position = $myrow["position"]; $aqfl_player_nfl_team = $myrow["nfl_team"]; $aqfl_player_aqfl_team = $myrow["aqfl_team"]; $nfl_player_id = mysql_query("SELECT player_id FROM nfl_players WHERE first_name='$aqfl_player_first' AND last_name='$aqfl_player_last' AND position='$aqfl_player_position' AND nfl_team='$aqfl_player_nfl_team'"); $result = mysql_query("UPDATE nfl_players SET aqfl_team='$aqfl_player_aqfl_team' WHERE player_id='$nfl_player_id'"); echo "$aqfl_player_first $aqfl_player_last updated ($aqfl_player_position, $aqfl_player_nfl_team, $aqfl_player_aqfl_team)"; } while ($myrow = mysql_fetch_array($aqfl_result)); ?> </body> </html> The end result is that I get a screenful of data (every player, NFL team, and AQFL team is correct) stating that the various players are updated, but but the field update in nfl_players is not actually done. I'm sure it's a syntax issue, but I don't know what's the actual problem. Any help? Thanks, Bob
