<?php
$host="localhost"; // Host name 
$username="root"; // Mysql username 
$password=""; // Mysql password 
$db_name="login"; // Database name 
$tbl_name="forum_titles"; // Table name 

// Connect to server and select databse.
mysql_connect("$host", "$username", "$password")or die("cannot connect"); 
mysql_select_db("$db_name")or die("cannot select DB");

$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name WHERE cat='general' ORDER BY fid";
// OREDER BY id DESC is order result by descending 
$result=mysql_query($sql);

$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "");
mysql_select_db("login", $link);
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT fid FROM forum_question WHERE fid='$fid'", $link);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result2);
?>
<table width="90%" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<td width="53%" align="center" bgcolor="#E6E6E6"><strong>General</strong></td>
</tr>
<?php
while($rows = mysql_fetch_array($result, $result2) ){ // Start looping table row 
?>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<a href="forums.php?forum=<? echo $rows['fid']; ?>">
<? echo $rows['forum']; ?></a><BR><span class="style1">
<? echo $rows['desc']; ?> - <?php echo "$num_rows"; ?>
</span>
</td>
</tr>

<?php
// Exit looping and close connection 
}
mysql_close();
?>

 

What I would like to do is have database-forum_question (Forum Topics) Show how many topics are in that specific database-forum_title (Forum Name). So That being said. My databases look like this;

 

Database Forum_Title

fidforumdesccat

1GeneralBlah Blah...1

2SupportBlah Blah...2

 

Database Forum_Question

idfidquestiondetailcat

11General TestBlah Blah...1

22Support TestBlah Blah...2

 

 

What I want; For example;

 

General - 4 Topics

Support - 2 Topics

Anything - 0 Topics

 

I think I am on the right track.. But I know for sure that this following doesn't help.

while($rows = mysql_fetch_array($result, $result2) ){ // Start looping table row 

 

How would I be able to fix this up?

*There is no error, it just results as Zero as the two databases aren't connecting properly*
