Are you sure about that Village Idiot? I'm fairly sure if the (int) typecasting is unable to wither the string down to an integer, it will leave you with zero (0). In addition to Jordie's comment, which is spot on, you may also use sprintf as well. Like so:

PHP Code:


			
$szSQL = sprintf("update ... where id=%d", $id);
