Why do I get "mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid"
- by Brian Ojeda
Why do I get a "mysql_query(): supplied argument is not a valid" for the first...
$r = mysql_query($q, $connection);
In the following code...
$bId = trim($_POST['bId']);
$title = trim($_POST['title']);
$story = trim($_POST['story']);
$q = "SELECT * ";
$q .= "FROM " . DB_NAME . ".`blog` ";
$q .= "WHERE `blog`.`id` = {$bId}";
$r = mysql_query($q, $connection);
//confirm_query($r);
if (mysql_num_rows($r) == 1) {
$q = "UPDATE " . DB_NAME . ".`blog` SET
`title` = '{$title}',
`story` = '{$story}'
WHERE `id` = {$bId}";
$r = mysql_query($q, $connection);
if (mysql_affected_rows() == 1) {
//Successful
$data['success'] = true;
$date['errors'] = false;
$date['message'] = "You are the Greatest!";
} else {
//Fail
$data['success'] = false;
$data['error'] = true;
$date['message'] = "You can't do it fool!";
}
}
I also get an "mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource" error too.
Side notes: I am using 1&1 Hosting (worst hosting ever), custom .htaccess file with one line text to enable PHP 5.2 (only why with 1&1 Hosting).
