CHANGE: > $len = sizeof($this->query_id); > $len++; > $this->query_id = array($len=>&$q); > mysql_free_result($q); > return $len; TO: $this->query_id[] = $q; return sizeof($this->query_id); second: $q is a resource, that is, a pointer variable. When you execute mysql_free_result($q), you free-up the memory that it pointed to. Therefore, when you attempt to recall its value, it is pointing to memory that you no longer own. Hence, it is not a valid resource. Therefore, do not free the resource. When the script completes, the memory will automatically be de-allocated. Also, when you use the phrase "&$q", you are creating a pointer to a pointer; is that what you want? >-----Original Message----- >From: Anzak Wolf [mailto:anzak@hotmail.com] >Sent: Tuesday, March 26, 2002 9:09 AM >To: php-general@lists.php.net >Subject: [PHP] MySQL arrays > > >I'm trying to do something a little different in my database class I have a >method to do the query and store it in an array. > >function query ($s = "") { > $q = mysql_query($s,$this->database_connect_id); > if (!$q) { > $tools->error(array("Query Resulted in NULL value")); > return 0; > } > $len = sizeof($this->query_id); > $len++; > $this->query_id = array($len=>&$q); > mysql_free_result($q); > return $len; >} > >function num_rows($q_id) { > // Set temp array to the selected query > $tq = &$this->query_id[$q_id]; > $rows = mysql_num_rows($tq); > return $rows; >} > >When I do a var_dump of the two key vars I get the following > >var_dump($this->query); >array(1) { > [1]=> > resource(2) of type (mysql result) >} >var_dump($tq); >resource(2) of type (Unknown) > >Here is the error that happens when I do the mysql_num_rows > ><br> ><b>Warning</b>: 2 is not a valid MySQL result resource in ><b>/var/www/includes/database_class.php</b> on line <b>77</b><br> > >any ideas as to what I can do to fix this so that I can store query for >later use? > >-Jim > > > > > >_________________________________________________________________ >Send and receive Hotmail on your mobile device: http://mobile.msn.comuà„^ï�1äéÐg >ñªãç > > >-- >PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) >To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > >-- >PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) >To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php > _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
