remenissions Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Hi I was trying to run an mysql statement in a function and it wasn't working. I'm sure it has something to do with global variables but when I tried running the statement with the connect in the function it still did not work. I am running MySQL server version --5.1.58-1ubuntu1 basically my code looks like this <?php include(" database connect "); include(" proc "); if(!empty($_POST[''])) run_function(); ?> proc funcion run_function() { mysql_query("") or die(mysql_error()); } The error prints nothing but if I take it out of the function the code works. If I require the database connect in the function, still nothing.. Do I need to pass my connect variables or something? or will this simply not work.

remenissions Posted January 5, 2012 Author Share Posted January 5, 2012 I didn't think anything was wrong with my code because it worked fine outside of a function, the sql wasn't working because my where variables were not being passed through. Common sense i just didn't think of it lol thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFMaBiSmAd Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Since this is a php coding issue, moving thread to that forum section ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
