no he isn't he is using single quotes within double quotes which is
perfectly valid.
Just a note to the op however. You are currently using $_REQUEST I would
advise that you use either $_GET or $_POST although this is not cuasing the
error it is something that is frowned upon unless you really HAVE too. The
problem with using $_REQUEST is that you do not know where it has come from
properly.
As mentioned by another poster try using mysql_error to see what error
message mysql is outputting. it might also help as also mentioned to infact
show us the structure of your table.
