hi I just need someone to help me with one line of code in wordpress backend.

I have a new field in the 'wp_user' table of the wordpress database,

All I need to do is write some one line of code which will update that field with a value from $_POST

I am struggling now with this crap for a couple of hours... I feel like a retard and most likely am. But can anyone help me out?

Thanks.

$value = $_POST['value'];
$query = sprintf("UPDATE wp_user SET field1 = 'whatever goes here' WHERE field2 = '%s'",
mysql_real_escape_string($value));
mysql_query($query);

Query could be changed/adapted to your needs.
