Best way to prepare variable(s) for UPDATE query? (mysql/php)

[crunchers]

Go easy (still learning).

Just wondering what the best approach would be for dynamically updating a record in mysql using PHP without using a loop when defining the row data as an array (key=column name, value=value).

I'd like to prepare the key and value from the array as a string and run the query once instead of iterating through the array using a loop for each key/value.

e.g.

PHP Code:

$data = array('col1' => 'one',
                     'col2' => 'two',
                     'col3' => 'three'
                     );

$str = ????

$query = ("UPDATE table_name SET ".$str." WHERE some_column=some_value") 


I can figure out how to do it using a foreach loop; and I can easily prepare a variable when inserting multiple records using php implode function. I just can't figure out what the best approach would be for updating the table in the same fashion.

Nevermind. I apply the loop to the array instead of the query; what a moron! Just goes to show, you can't legislate for stupidity.

PHP Code:

$data = array('col1' => 'one',
                     'col2' => 'two',
                     'col3' => 'three'
                     );

foreach ($data as $field => $value) {
  $list[] = $field.'='."'".mysql_real_escape_string($value)."'";
}
$fields = implode(', ', $list);
    
$query = "UPDATE table_name SET ".$fields." WHERE some_column=some_value";
