note 47794 added to function.mysqli-query

Be careful with this function as it behaves differently from mysql_query() in that you must supply 2 arguments, the first being a link to the database connection you have opened, eg. $terms = mysqli_query($database, "SELECT content FROM cms WHERE page = 'terms'"); on the page where you want the query. If you have connected to the database from an external file then make sure you use the "global" keyword so that the database connection is accessible in the script with the query. eg. function db_connect() { global $database; @ $database = mysqli_connect("localhost", "username", "password"); @ $select = mysqli_select_db($database, "db_name"); } Personally I think it's a pain in the ar$e cos i've gotta go through changing all my code now. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysqli-query.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+47794 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47794&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47794&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47794&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47794&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47794&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+47794&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+47794&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
