I'm starting to get the hang of things, but SQL stuff is a bit frustrating. Anyway, I've been trying to get this to work but no luck. I've removed quotes, dots, $ signs and just about everything else. The statement is:

INSERT INTO users VALUES (2, '.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'].', 'admin', 'admin', '123 My Street', 'Belmont', 'North Carolina', '28012', 'United States of America', '.$siteemail.', '7048251111', NULL, '', '.$username.', '.md5($password).', 1, NOW(), '', '', '', NULL, NOW(), '', '', '');;

Error reports:

INSERT INTO users
VALUES ( 2, '.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR '].', 'admin', 'admin', '123 My Street', 'Belmont', 'North Carolina', '28012', 'United States of America', '.$siteemail.', '7048251111', NULL , '', '.$username.', '.md5($password).', 1, NOW( ) , '', '', '', NULL , NOW( ) , '', '', '' )

MySQL said: Documentation
#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 'REMOTE_ADDR'].', 'admin', 'admin', '123 My Street', 'Belmont', 'North Carolina',' at line 1


Can someone please get this thing into a statement that SQL actually will accept? Thanks loads to anyone.
 
Sorry. I'm in uncharted territory here. Thanks anyway.
 
PHP forum is here:

you can post there, and make sure to post the complete query string, variable and all quotes involved.

You seem to have quoting issues

Ignorance is not necessarily Bliss, case in point:
Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.
