Tutorials - MySQL - Syntax

The syntax for MySQL queries is very simple: most of the keywords are English words, with the information about your database and possible some PHP code in between. For example, a simple SELECT query (to retrive information) might look like:

SELECT * FROM `tablename` WHERE `column` = 'value'

We'll show you the syntax throughout our tutorials. MySQL doesn't provide the best error messages (in fact, we've known them to indicate errors in the wrong place in a query string), so it's important to pay attention to the syntax demonstrated.
