[wp-hackers] $wpdb query

[ryan fitzer]

Thanks for the help. It is the SQL that I'm having trouble with but your
explanation helped in other ways. Here is what I've used for a subpage
without success:

$wpdb->query("UPDATE $wpdb->posts SET post_parent = 3 WHERE post_ID =
4 AND post_status = 'static'");

Got no results from this. And no clue what the query would look like with a
sub-cat.
