hi..

you code is

$sql = "UPDATE pages SET page_name ='$page_name', page_title ='$page_title', page_desc ='$page_desc', page_content ='$page_content' WHERE page_id =".$id;

it should be
$sql = "UPDATE pages SET page_name ='$page_name', page_title ='$page_title', page_desc ='$page_desc', page_content ='$page_content' WHERE page_id =.$id";

if id is not fixed you should write

page_id="+.$id+";

Still same error, You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galle' at line 1

Hi,
I found my solution and sharing it for others.
If you are using TinyMCE and sending data for process to a string variable on your PHP Process page you should use mysql_real_escape_string() because their can be Apostrophes in your data and SQL will return error.
i used it as
$page_content = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['page_content']);
