$qry = "SELECT `$speciality` FROM `graph`";

Could you change the code so that after executing the query you display the possible error
mysql_query($qry, $link);
echo mysql_errno($link) . ": " . mysql_error($link) . "\n";
this way you can see what goes wrong in the mysql code.
Also you're easily vulnerable to SQL injection attacks by inserting a variable in the query the way you are now.
Edit based on your comment that it is not the MySQL:
Also add error_reporting(-1); at the beginning of your php code to display any other errors. and use var_dump or print_r on suspicious variables to check what their value really is. This is the basics of debugging any php code.

you need to remove back-tick from your code around column name:-
$speciality = 'OBS';
echo $qry = "SELECT `".$speciality."` FROM graph";
Output:- SELECT `OBS` FROM graph
Note:- It strange because As #Jay says you code is working fine too, and now I check it too and it works fine. So I think may be something wrong in your next line of code. So check yourself. Thanks.

I am trying to create a unique id by concatenating 3 variables using forward slashes(/). my code is like so
$year . "/" . $acronym . "/" . $num;
I am expecting an output of
"18/MC/1"
but the output I get is
"18\/MC\/1"
What am I doing wrong. I have already tried using stripslashes() but it doesn't do anything to the output.
You could use join function
<?php
// ...
join([$year, $acronym, $num], '/');
For more info, see: Join function documentation
I found what was wrong,
The code below outputs the correct format 18/MC/1
return response()->json([$id]);
while my previous code was
return response()->json($id);
which gave me an output of
`"18/MC/1"
There is function in php to remove backward slash from string use following function.
echo stripslashes(string);
output: 18/MC/1

I am trying to pass some variables through url in php. Im using the following script
$query1 = new ParseQuery("Drivers");
$query1->includeKey("driverUserId");
$query1->descending("createdAt");
$results1 = $query1->find();
$object1 = $results1[$i];
$uname=$object1->get('driverUserId');
echo ''.$uname->get('name').'';
echo '<td>'.$uname->get('name').'</td>';
echo '<td>'.$uname->get('username').'</td>';
But when I execute the page, script stopped working in this line.
echo ''.$uname->get('name').'';
When I removed '.$uname.' it worked fine.
Because if $uname has a ->get() method, it's obviously a class or an object and you can't directly use it like a string (if it hasn't any tostring modifiers). Try to write it like this (just guessing):
echo ''.$uname->get('name').'';
Use the below code:
$id=$uname->get('id');
$name=$uname->get('name');
echo ''.$name.'';

I am facing some problem in my PHP function.
function pagename($id){
$query=mysql_query("select * from tbl_pages where recid='$id' and langid='$LangID'")
$rs=mysql_fetch_array($query);
$page_name=$rsp['pgname'];
print $page_name;
}
i am not getting any resutl
I saw some problems in your code
First, there is no connection string to your database, I hope you do the connection before to do the request.
Then, in your request, you try to use a variable $LangID not declared in your function, maybe you forgot to put it in your function declaration.
You put the result of your request in the $rs variable and then you try to read the $rsp variable.
You are using mysql in your code, actually it's very unsafe to use it, it's very recommended to use mysqli or PDO instead.
Finally, you don't return anything with your function, you are missing the return statement or maybe you just want to display the result ?
EDIT : I suggest you to write your SQL requests with uppercase, it's more readable for you and other people who read your code.
SELECT * FROM tbl_pages WHERE recid='$id' AND langid='$LangID'
There's no $LangID parameter.
$rs and $rsp are different variables in your code, you should use only one of them.
This function does not return anything, even if you get something in your print.
Check if mysql connection is already established.

Please tell me how to do a find and replace in PHP.
I nee to find Entry="OK" and replace with OK in a xml file.
I tried str_replace but confused because of the = and " in it.
Even though I'm not sure of the environment you're working in, here's a php sample that I think does what you want:
<html>
<?php
$teststr = "Entry=\"OK\"";
print $teststr . "<br>";
$newanswer = str_replace($teststr, "Entry=OK", $teststr);
print $newanswer . "<br>";
?>
</html>
Try this way
str_replace('Entry="OK"','OK',$var);
You can use str_replace its working
$r = 'Entry="OK" tyyuu hhh';
echo str_replace($r,'Entry="OK"','OK');
if any error found then u use preg_replace with corresponding patteren

I'm new to SQL and am trying to get this query to work:
function loadArrayFromQuery($query) {
$result = $this->executeQuery($query);
$return = array();
while ($rows = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$return[] = $rows;
mysql_error();
}
return $return;
}
However i get the following error:
ERROR: Unknown Punctuation String # 56
STR: ->
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'function loadArrayFromQuery($query) {
$result = $this->executeQuery($query)' at line 1
Thanks
You are currently trying to execute PHP code as an SQL query.
Unfortunately:
PHP is not SQL;
SQL is not PHP.
In case this was an accident rather than a misunderstanding, check for missing ' or " characters at the end of some string higher up your PHP code, as you may accidentally be incorporating code into a query built as a string.
You don't really give enough information in the question to say anything further; except to request, that is, that if you are asking a SQL question please post an SQL query, not PHP code. You ought to spend some time extracting the crux of the problem from the three or four technologies that you're using in your project, so that you are asking us about only one.
