Hi there!

I'm currently trying to customize Bugzilla. I now know where I need to add code in order to achieve the changes I need, but dbh seems to behaving a problem with an @ sign I'm using.

Here's the code:

my $user_login_name = 'name.surname@company.com';

my $sth = $dbh->prepare("SELECT userid, login_name, realname FROM prof
+iles WHERE login_name=$user_login_name"); 

$sth->execute();

while(my @zeile_user = $sth->fetchrow_array())
{
    $user_id_custom             = $zeile_user[0];
    $login_name_custom            = $zeile_user[1];
    $realname_custom            = $zeile_user[2];
}

The error I get is:

DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; c
+heck the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the
+ right syntax to use near '@company.com' at line 1 [for Statement "SE
+LECT userid, login_name, realname FROM profiles WHERE login_name=name
+.surname@company.com"] at C:/Bugzilla/buglist.cgi line 1079

I thought if I pass the login_name in '' it would work, but it's not. I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. I'm new to perl (coming from PHP) and this all very confusing for me :-(

Maybe someone could enlighten me a bit as to what I'm doing wrong?

Cheers

Fred
