You create a string called $query and then never send it to mysql!  You 
should also test $result after every call to mysql_query; in case the 
query fails.

$query = "UPDATE ....
$result = @mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) { die($query.' ERROR: '.mysql_error()); }

$query2= "SELECT * FROM subheaderText WHERE subheaderTextid=1";
$result2= @mysql_query($query2);
if (!$result2) { die($query2.' ERROR: '.mysql_error()); }
