Without knowing the specific error message, it is difficult to provide a solution. However, here are some common mistakes that could cause errors when including variables in queries using PHP:
Not using quotes around string variables - If the variable is a string, it needs to be surrounded by quotes in the query. For example:
$name = 'John';
$query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE name = '$name'";
Not properly escaping special characters - If the variable contains special characters (such as quotes or backslashes), it needs to be properly escaped to avoid syntax errors. For example:
$email = "john.doe@example.com'; DROP TABLE users; --";
$query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = '" . addslashes($email) . "'";
Not using prepared statements - Using prepared statements is safer and more secure than injecting variables directly into a query. For example:
$name = 'John';
$stmt = $pdo->prepare('SELECT * FROM users WHERE name = :name');
$stmt->execute(['name' => $name]);
