sql statement in php

[Guest_imported]

I have this select statement that I am writing through php but it is not executing. I think it is probably a php specific syntax error because when i write it in the mysql monitor it works fine. Does anybody now what is wrong with this select statement? Thanks in advance as I am new to all this stuff.

$query = "select* from orders
order by orderid desc
limit 0,1";

Try putting a space between select and *.
Else, post the error message, please mcvdmvs
