title: Concatenation kills me
body: <p>Can anyone help me put this together in the right way? I'm a noob at this. I'm using a while loop to put some info into a column one time. Just to populate the existing users. I think I have everything else right, with the exception of being brain dead when I try to glue strings together in a mysql statement!</p>
  
  <pre><code>mysql_query( "UPDATE `tuser` SET `AthleteID`='  " .  strtoupper( substr($row["LName"], 0, 2)) . $row["SkillshowUserID"]  .  " 'WHERE `SkillshowUserID` = `SkillshowUserID`;'");
  </code></pre>
