Hi,

I wonder if someone could point out what is wrong with the following
piece of code (taken directly from the 'PHP - fast & easy web
development' book) , which gives the following warning :

Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in
c:\program files\apache group\apache\htdocs\cms\pick_modcontact.php on
line 23

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
$result = mysql_query($sql,$connection);    <--line 23

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
 $id = $row['id'];
 $fname = $row['fname'];
 $lname = $row['lname'];

 $option_block .= "<option value=\"$id\">$lname, $fname</option>";
}
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=

The mySQL query that is executed returns a result set when I use the
mySQL shell, and the connection string is valid. If someone could advise
me as to the error, I would greatly appreciate it.

- Best regards,

Lee
