Hang on -- it's not clear to me which server is giving which response. Just to be clear, the proper response is to deliver a resource id if the query is valid, or FALSE if not. Could it be that one server is consistently giving you a resource ID of 0, and the other isn't? (I'm not even sure if a resource ID of zero is equivalent to a real zero, or what the result of doing an if ($resource_id) on it would be, but this might be a straw to clutch at!). To see *exactly* what's being returned into $person from your mysql_query(), try doing var_dump($person). Cheers!
