How can I use the first query's id value $row['id'] again after I run a second query inside the while loop statement? To show you what I mean here is a sample code below of what I'm trying to do.

I hope I explained it right.

Here is the code.

    $mysqli = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "sitename");
    $dbc = mysqli_query($mysqli,"SELECT users.*
                                 FROM users
                                 WHERE user_id = 4");

    if (!$dbc) {
        // There was an error...do something about it here...
        print mysqli_error($mysqli);
    }

    while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($dbc)) {

     echo '<div>User: ' . $row['id'] . '</div>';
     echo '<div>Link To User' . $row['id'] . '</div>';


            $mysqli = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "sitename");
            $dbc2 = mysqli_query($mysqli,"SELECT COUNT(cid) as num
                                          FROM comments
                                          WHERE comments_id = $row[id]");

            if (!$dbc2) {
                // There was an error...do something about it here...
                print mysqli_error($mysqli);
            }  else {
                while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($dbc2)){ 
                    $num = $row['num'];
                }
            }

     echo '<div>User ' . $row['id'] . ' Comments# ' . $num . '</div>';

    }
