PHP is telling me that the resource I am using for mysql_fetch_assoc is invalid:
$query ="Select answer from answers where studentID ='A123456789'";
$result = mysql_query($query,$connection);
$count=0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result));
{
$count++;
}
echo $count;
Are you sure your database connection has been made?
$connection = mysql_connect('localhost', 'mysql_user', 'mysql_password') or die(mysql_error());
etc..
If the connection is made alright, try:
$query ="Select answer from answers where studentID ='A123456789'";
$result = mysql_query($query,$connection) or die(mysql_error());
$count=0;
while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result));
{
$count++;
}
echo $count;
