thanks @Barand and others who helped me to make it work. it now works now flawlessley.

@Barand so, i should pass arrays is what you suggest sir ?.

@Barandno need to apologise ,everybody make mistakes. i have tweaked the query & code to prevent repeated values from populating the timeline for some silly mistake that i made its not working and i couldn't figure it out. here is the code: function totalprocedures($conn, $v, $update_id1, $gp_id1) { foreach ($update_id1 as $v1) { $unique_up = array_unique($v1); $implode1 = implode(",", $unique_up); } foreach ($gp_id1 as $j => $v2) { $unique_gp = array_unique($v2); $implode2 = implode(",", $unique_gp); } foreach ($v as $i) { $implode_v = "'" . implode("','", $v) . "'"; } //return print_r($implode_v);echo '<implode1:-> ';print_r($implode1);echo 'implode2:-';print_r($implode2); $imp1 = implode(',', array_fill(1, count($v), '?')); $imp2 = implode(',', array_fill(1, count($v), '?')); $imp_u = implode(',', array_fill(1, count($v1), '?')); $imp_g = implode(',', array_fill(1, count($v2), '?')); $sqlArray = array( array( "query" => "select * FROM updates where `author` in({$imp1}) and update_id not in ({$imp_u}) order by time desc limit 1 ", "bindvalue" => $implode_v, "stopvalue" => $implode1 ), array( "query" => "select * FROM group_posts where `author_gp` in({$imp2}) and gp_id not in({$imp_g}) order by pdate desc limit 1", "bindvalue" => $implode_v, "stopvalue" => $implode2 ) ); do { try { $stmt = $conn->prepare($sqlArray[0]["query"]); $stmt1 = $conn->prepare($sqlArray[1]["query"]); $stmt->execute([$sqlArray[0]['bindvalue'], $sqlArray[0]['stopvalue']]); $rows = $stmt->fetchAll(); $stmt1->execute([$sqlArray[0]['bindvalue'], $sqlArray[0]['stopvalue']]); $rows1 = $stmt1->fetchAll(); return print_r($sqlArray); return print_r([$rows, $rows1]); } catch (Exception $exc) { echo $exc->getMessage(); } } while ($stmt->nextRowset() && $stmt1->nextRowset()); } The $sqlArray prints like this: Array ( [0] => Array ( [query] => select * FROM updates where `author` in(?,?,?,?) and update_id not in (?,?,?,?,?) order by time desc limit 1 [bindvalue] => 'wolverine','aboutthecreator','jayson','shan2batman' [stopvalue] => 302,396,307,386, ) [1] => Array ( [query] => select * FROM group_posts where `author_gp` in(?,?,?,?) and gp_id not in(?,?,?) order by pdate desc limit 1 [bindvalue] => 'wolverine','aboutthecreator','jayson','shan2batman' [stopvalue] => 104,91, ) And i get an empty array like this if i run the function: Array ( [0] => Array ( ) [1] => Array ( ) )

finally i got the output to separate both the tables results: sample output: Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [update_id] => 396 [0] => 396 [update_body] => <div>Praesent porttitor, nulla vitae posuere iaculis, arcu nisl dignissim dolor, a pretium mi sem ut ipsum.

then how come these ppl can run multiple normal queries and get results pl check this stackoverflow page for my confusion and advice on the same as a gut feeling i know that there is a way out there to produce both the tables result.

following @Barand advice i wrote a new function to test in but now the new problem is it brings only updates table result and not group_posts result. here is the new function: function totalprocedures($conn,$friend) { try{ $sql= "select * FROM updates where `author` ='".$friend."' order by time desc limit 1 ;"; $sql.="select * FROM group_posts where `author_gp` ='".$friend."' order by pdate desc limit 1"; $stmt=$conn->query($sql); // $row=$stmt->nextRowset(); //$rows= $row->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_BOTH); while($rows=$stmt->fetch()){ return $rows; } } catch (PDOException $e) { echo $e->getMessage(); } }; i get the following result: array(26) { ["update_id"]=> string(3) "302" [0]=> string(3) "302" ["update_body"]=> string(36) "Just type and press the post button." [1]=> string(36) "Just type and press the post button." ["url"]=> string(0) "" [2]=> string(0) "" ["time"]=> string(19) "2016-12-05 07:21:04" [3]=> string(19) "2016-12-05 07:21:04" ["host"]=> string(0) "" [4]=> string(0) "" ["vote_up"]=> string(1) "1" [5]=> string(1) "1" ["vote_down"]=> string(1) "0" [6]=> string(1) "0" ["title"]=> string(22) "You know how it works." [7]=> string(22) "You know how it works." ["user_id_u"]=> string(3) "173" [8]=> string(3) "173" ["account_name"]=> string(9) "wolverine" [9]=> string(9) "wolverine" ["author"]=> string(9) "wolverine" [10]=> string(9) "wolverine" ["type"]=> string(1) "a" [11]=> string(1) "a" ["data"]=> string(0) "" [12]=> string(0) "" } (still don't know what he meant by normal queries)

then how do i do it???

since i'm still learning i just didn't want to sound stupid of asking the question how??? i'm sorry if i made you uneasy. so was my approach right when it comes to stored procedure. how can i use two normal queries when ajax keeps on producing repeated values bcoz of loops in php while executing the script. its the reason i tried my hand in joins(but will reopen that thread once i finish with this stored procedure) result total failure becoz of poor design(dont know how to correct it). these are the reasons why i might look ignorant sir @Barand as an elder i respec t you the most in this community thats why i'm pestering you don't get me wrong.

so, @Barand basically i need to create more out parameters is what i understand from your examples and call them through the procedure like this: begin select id1, name1 INTO @a1, @b1 FROM location1 LIMIT 1; //not limit it to 5 select id2, name2 into @a2,@b2 FROM location2 limit 1; //not limit it to 5 end // then call it like: call timeline('shan2batman','aboutthecreator',@a1,@b1,@a2,@b2); is that correct sir. as one of the eldest members you shouldn't be making fun when ppl are learning. ☹️

i will try to fix them but the pressing problem at hand is executing the stored procedure. As it helps me to learn by the way sir @Barand

@Barandbecause its easier and my tables have some problems for joined queries. plus i can get the values in two arrays which helps me a lot to separate them.

@Barandi want to retrieve the values of both the select statements and print it in my timeline thats the objective.

After changing the query to this i get the following error code: SQLSTATE[21000]: Cardinality violation: 1222 The used SELECT statements have a different number of columns sql query that was changed: select update_id as up1,account_name as acc,user_id_u as uid,author as auth,time,title as tit1,update_body as u_body INTO updates FROM updates as up where author in (friend,session_id) order by time desc limit 5 ; select gp_id as gid,author_gp as auth2,type as ty2,title as tit2,data as dat2,pdate,author_id as authid INTO group_posts FROM group_posts as gp where author_gp in (friend,session_id) order by pdate desc limit 5 ;

@Barand can you help me with this. can you point where i'm going wrong.

after referring to this stackoverflow page i changed the code to: public function totalProcedures($friend_name, $session_id) { /* * query to fetch stored procedure */ try { //executing the stored procedure $sql_sp = "CALL timeline (:friend,:session)" ; $stmt_sp = $this->_db->prepare($sql_sp); $stmt_sp->bindValue(":friend",$friend_name); $stmt_sp->bindValue(":session",$session_id); $stmt_sp->execute(); $row=$stmt_sp->nextRowset(); do { try { $rows = $row->fetchAll(PDO::FETCH_ASSOC); if ($rows) { return $rows; } else { echo die().'no data try rows'; } } catch (PDOException $exc) { echo $exc->getMessage(); } } while ($row->nextRowset()); } catch (PDOException $ei) { echo $ei->getMessage(); } } still not able to get results now even updates results is not coming up.
