What is not working, Flolondon? I notice you have not yet developed your $query that you are trying to execute.

[Flolondon]

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 2

it has a query but i did not list it... the above is the error response

That is what you have wrong, according to the error. The syntax of your query statement is incorrect and causing the query to fail upon execution.
