[SOLVED] help with a simple code

Hi,

 

I am having problem with a very very simple code.

I use it alot and it never caused me this much of trouble. Its been like 2-3 hours that I am trying to figure it out...

:facewall: :facewall: :facewall:

 

Ok here is the code:

		$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM history ORDER BY `id` DESC LIMIT 0,5",$link);
		while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$history = "" .$row['history']. "";
$playerid = substr($history, 0, 4);

$getp = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `players`  WHERE `id` = '$playerid' ",$link);
$player_name = mysql_fetch_array($getp) or die(mysql_error());
$Player = "" .$player_name['name']. "";

echo "$Player $history<br/>";
}
?>

 

 

I echoed $playerid, alone and it shows it well...

I tried running the Select sql, in PHP MyAdmin, it works..

 

Its only:

$player_name = mysql_fetch_array($getp) or die(mysql_error());

 

That seems to be bugging, but I have no idea why....

 

 

Thanks, for your help,

Ara

Hey there,

 

Go to the first line of your script and add the following code:

 

<?
error_reporting(E_ALL);

... 
. 
.

?>

 

This will help you to get an idea of what went wrong.

 

I think it is - sorry, it could be something about your myassoc-request method and your way

to request the data, but i am not sure .

okay try this and report back the errors

<?php
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM history ORDER BY `id` DESC LIMIT 0,5",$link) or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
{
$history = $row['history'];
$playerid = substr($history, 0, 4);

$SQL = "SELECT * FROM `players` WHERE `id` = '$playerid' ";
$getp = mysql_query($SQL,$link) or die($SQL.mysql_error());
$player_name = mysql_fetch_array($getp);
$Player = $player_name['name'];

echo "$Player $history<br/>";
}
?>
