My friend has asked me about fix his old php script. I have a strange problem with it.

My query:

select * from users where login='Anna Jastrząb'

$login = trim($login);
$us = mysql_query("select * from users where login='$login'");
$w = mysql_fetch_array($us);
die($w['id']);

And it doesn't work! When I die() my mysql_query and copy it to phpmyadmin, it works.

Thanks

Try this: $query = "SELECT * FROM `users` WHERE `login` = '" . "$login . "'"; – Jackerbil Nov 22 '14 at 11:16
[You should not be using `SET NAMES` but the `mysql_set_charset` function instead.](http://stackoverflow.com/q/5288953/53114) – Gumbo Nov 22 '14 at 11:20

You should not be using a deprecated API !!! See PHP's PDO/mysqli_ APIs and prepared statements. – Strawberry Nov 22 '14 at 13:15
