Hi Guys,
Can any of you experts please help. I have a table with the email field set unique. If a user tries to insert the same email they get the following: Error: Duplicate entry..for key 'email'.
This is good to a point, but can any person explain how I can amend that error mesage?

| I would make a SELECT to the table with the "new" email address. If there is a result you can define your own error message. Else insert the new email address. |
