my website has PHP command:
mysql_query("SELECT * FROM users WHERE id=" . $_GET["id"]) or die(mysql_error());
When I enter URL
http://example.com/index.php?id=1;%20UPDATE%20users%20SET%20password=123%20WHERE%20id=1
I get following error:
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 'UPDATE users SET password=abc WHERE id=1' at line 1
But in phpmyamin query executes successfully. What's wrong here? Why it doesn't execute in browser?
