Using a long string of text as your conditional is asking for trouble. Don't you have an index for the row that you could use to identify it instead?

I tried with this also but still not working.
$query = "UPDATE $userstable SET textbox = '$textbox1' WHERE name = '$name'";
when i try this
$query = "UPDATE $userstable SET textbox = 'xyzabc' WHERE name = 'somename'";
it works.

All variable values '$textbox1', '$name'
are creating problems.
Waiting for reply.
Thanks

print $query before sending it to make sure your variables are in there correctly.

Hi rod,
I have changed as per your suggestion and I got it with
$query = "UPDATE $userstable SET textbox = '$textbox1' WHERE name = '$name'";
Thanks for help
