MySQL4 installation. I don't get this. One mysql_query works, the other 2 don't. What did I mess up in my PHP syntax? The SQL queries all work. $au ="Atwood, Margaret"; $id ="1624"; THIS WORKS: $news = mysql_query('select * from '.$table.' where id like '.$id.' order by AU desc'); This gives "Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource ... on line 48": $news = mysql_query('select * from '.$table.' where AU like '.$au.' order by AU desc'); #SQL-Query works: select * from ccl_main where AU like 'Atwood, Margaret' order by AU desc This gives "Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource ... on line 48": $news = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM '.$table.' WHERE MATCH (AU) AGAINST ('.$au.' IN BOOLEAN MODE) order by AU desc`'); #SQL-Query works: SELECT * FROM ccl_main WHERE MATCH (AU) AGAINST ('Atwood, Margaret' IN BOOLEAN MODE) order by AU desc while ($mydata = mysql_fetch_object($news)) <----- this is line 48 { $mycounter++; echo $mydata->id." - ".$mydata->AU."<hr>"; }
