PHP - Nothing Happens When Updating A Mysql Database

Hi guys, I have a problem with my code. It connects with the database but it doesn't execute anything. I am trying to update a value in a table but I really don't know what I am doing wrong. I am trying to change the price based on the meta_value GF-1370 Thank you very much.   Here is Table (Taken from myphpadmin) meta_id  post_id  meta_key  meta_value 18538 4356 _sku GF-1370 18541 4356 _price 2.343   and here is my code:

 <?php 
$link = mysql_connect('server', 'username', 'password'); 
if (!$link) { 
    die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); 
} 
echo 'Connected successfully'; 
mysql_select_db(wordpress_i12dhflgoa);
$sql="update `wp_pzvy_postmeta` set `_price` = 5 WHERE `_sku` = 'GF-1370'";
?>  

the below code as I understand should insert a new record into my database, but it's not.

<?php
$notes = $_POST['notes'];
$cnamedb = $_POST['cname'];
$username = $_SESSION['username'];

mysql_query("INSERT INTO `ccccomma_eve`.`corps` (`id`, `name`, `ticker`, `alliance`, `ceo`, `tax`, `members`, `hq`, `apidate`, `notes`, `notedate`, `updatedby`) VALUES ('', '$cnamedb', '', '', '', '', '', '', '', '$notes', NOW(), '$username'");

echo $cnamedb." Updated";
?>

Any ideas why?

I have the following code, (I'm sorry it's so long an it does more that the question asks.)

It's ment to edit, delete and make new links in a mysql database, by also using a link header to home all the links (Like a dropdown menu) And thig manages the links. However then the update, or when the new form is submitted it leaves then titlereg field blank. (The titlereg is the id of the main link, it's called reg in the title_reg database) I know this is complicated and i'm not too good at explaining the problem but any help would be great. I have commented on anything that could help.

<?php

By the way, explain simply as I'm only 13

For the last few days I have been trying to work out why my code does not update the MySQL database table.  Having tried several variation I have the below but cannot see anything wrong. The rest of the program produces the correct results (displaying what is currently on the table) showing it is connecting to the correct table but altering the table is not working. Any help greatly appreciated.

The few lines in question a
Code: [Select]

// Update the profile data in the database
   
if (!$error) {
      if (!empty($name)&& !empty($phone) && !empty($address1) && !empty($address2)) {
        // Only set the picture column if there is a new picture
        if (!empty($new_picture)) {

//if (!empty($postcode)){
          $query = "UPDATE antique SET name = '$name', phone = '$phone', address1 = '$address1', address2 = '$address2', postcode = '$postcode', " .
            " email = '$email', webadd = '$webadd', picture = '$new_picture', username = '" . $_SESSION['username'] . "'  WHERE name = '" . $row['name'] ."'";
       
}}
       
        else {
         
$query = "UPDATE antique SET name = '$name', phone = '$phone', address1 = '$address1', address2 = '$address2', postcode = '$postcode', " .
            " email = '$email', webadd = '$webadd', username = '" . $_SESSION['username'] . "'  WHERE name = '" . $row['name'] ."'";
        }
        mysqli_query($dbc, $query) or die("<br>Query $query<br>Failed with error: " . mysqli_error($dbc) . '<br>On line: ' . __LINE__);

I used to be good at this but I changed servers and everything is different...  Heres my code so far:

Code: [Select]
<?php
$rated=$_REQUEST['rated'];
echo $rated;
$rating=$_REQUEST['rating'];
echo $rating;

// Make a MySQL Connection
mysql_connect("localhost", "********", "********") or die(mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("*********") or die(mysql_error());

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM main WHERE username = '$rated'")
or die(mysql_error());  

$row = mysql_fetch_array( $result );

$votes = $db_field['$rating'];
$newvotes = $votes + 1;

echo $newvotes;

mysql_query("UPDATE main SET $rating = '$newvotes'
WHERE username = '$rated'");


?>
Whats going on here is the colomb that I want to update comes as a variable $rated (That works) and then the database selects the  row to update with $username (That works) and gets the variable $newvotes by taking the original value of the data its about to update and add 1 to it (That works)  Then it updates the field to $newvotes....

I don't know why the update won't go through... there are no errors....
