Hi!> argument is not a valid MySQL result resource " from the second
I've got two nested queries where one looks up data based on values returned from the first.
$lot_query = "SELECT * FROM LOT WHERE lot_category_id=" . $lot_category . " AND lot_close_time>" . time(); $lot_result = mysql_query($lot_query, $CONNECT_ID);
if ($lot_result) { while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($lot_result)) { blah-blah-blah...
$bid_query = "select * from bids where bid_lot_id=" . $lot_id .
" order by bid_amount";
$bid_result = mysql_query($bid_query, $CONNECT_ID);
$bid_count = mysql_num_rows($bid_result);
blah-blah-blah...
I get this error message: "Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied
> query. Do I need a second $CONNECT_ID for a second link to mysql_query #2??
No... you don't even need to use a connect ID. It should work fine if you just use mysql_query($bid_query)
The problem is likely that the query is failing for some reason and thus not generating a proper result. Do an echo mysql_error($CONNECT_ID) to figure out if there's an error in your syntax, etc.
