Hi On my way to bed so too tired too look closely, but at a guess I'd say it's a logic error. I would guess this: > $sid = mysql_fetch_array($query) || die ('Could not fetch from database: > ' . mysql_error()); // <--- line 49 isn't evaluating in the order you expect.. You're using a logic statement as an assignment, and the result of that get's assigned to your variable not the resource you expect. Try it like this to see if it works: $sid = mysql_fetch_array($query); if ($sid === false) die ('Could not fetch from database: ' . mysql_error()); If that's not the problem, I haven't got a clue until after sleep and coffee.
