title: Update PHP-SQL statement not working - no errors shown
body: <p>I have the following code...</p>
  
  <pre><code>$interactionid = '123';
  $interactioncode = "ECWL";
  $oldDOL = $_GET['oldDOL'];
  
  $newDOL = $_GET['newDOL'];
  
  
      include("ORCLconfig.php");
      $addWSclaim = oci_parse($conn, "UPDATE claims SET DATE_OF_LOSS='$newDOL' WHERE NUMBER='32122'");
                    oci_execute($addWSclaim, OCI_COMMIT_ON_SUCCESS);
  
  
      $addtointeractionMAKE = oci_parse($conn, "INSERT INTO interaction_items VALUES (null, '$interactionid', '$interactioncode', '$oldDOL', '$newDOL', localtimestamp)");
                              oci_execute($addtointeractionMAKE, OCI_COMMIT_ON_SUCCESS);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>oldDOL and newDOL are dates which arrive in the format DD-MMM-YY which is inline with the DATE_OF_LOSS column in the claims table.</p>
  
  <p>However only the second statement seems to be working as there is no change on the claims table nor are there any errors shown.</p>
  
  <p>I'm using an Oracle database and if I do the update statement in the SQL console it works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Knowing me it will be something remarkably simple which i've somehow overlooked but any help would be appreciated :)</p>
