Simple MySQL Query Showing Error - php

Question

I am trying to execute the following query
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `developer_messenger`;
CREATE TABLE `developer_messenger` (
`id` int(10) NOT NULL,
`title` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`username` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`message` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`type` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`date_time` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`status` varchar(45) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;
But this simple query is showing me Error in PHP
Could not get data: 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 'CREATE TABLE developer_messenger ( id int(10)
NOT NULL, title varchar(' at line 1
I am a newbie, Sorry if its silly,
Help Appreciated!

Answer 1

In Response to your second question about magic_quotes:
if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { //checks php ini if magic_quotes is not on
$title = addslashes($_POST['title']);
}
else
{
$title = stripslashes($_POST['title']);
}
addslashes(); http://php.net/manual/en/function.addslashes.php
stripslashes(); http://php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php
not sure if this helps but it might that way you dont have to change php.ini
just the $data that is to be entered into sql

Your query is correct, Try exciting DROP and CREATE one by one.
This code may help you.
<?php
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$dbname = "myDB";
// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);
// Check connection
if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}
// sql to create table
$sql = "CREATE TABLE `developer_messenger` (
`id` int(10) NOT NULL,
`title` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`username` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`message` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`type` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`date_time` varchar(45) NOT NULL,
`status` varchar(45) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1";
if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "Table MyGuests created successfully";
} else {
echo "Error creating table: " . $conn->error;
}
$conn->close();
?>
