| | Debugging tip: You mention that you run the statement in MySql window, and it works, but did you actually copy & paste the statement as generated by your code? Right after you build the $sql variable, output it like so: [php] echo $sql; exit(); [/php] Then copy & paste that … |
| | Yep, the documentation at [url]www.php.net[/url] makes it pretty clear. If you code PHP, you probably want to keep php.net open in a browser at all times!

| | I am not an expert in this field, but the way many barcode scanners work is simply as a keyboard interrupt. That is, they decode the code, and enter the code text AS IF it was typed using the keyboard. So for example, you could have a PHP web page, … |
