Re: function returns no value

I added var_dump($result); to the function. As part of the output I get the following: ["fields"]=> array(1) { ["fa"]=> string(22) "ورود به سایت"} which is the string which should be returned and printed. The result is there, however, it couldn't be printed. Any ideas?

Although the querry yields a positive result, the function returns no value. Here is the function: function translate ($db, $lang, $MaiKey, $page, $pid) { $statement = "SELECT fa FROM language WHERE MaiKey='$MaiKey' AND page='$page' AND pid='$pid'"; $result = $db->Execute($statement); if ($result=== false) die(); return $result->fields[0]; } Could anybody see what is going wrong here? its hard to say, since we cant see whats going on inside the Execute function... you might try to add a var_dump($result); directly after the call to Execute, just for debugging purposes, then remove it once you know whats going on. -nathan
