I concur with Jason, but if restructuring is out of the question, just
rearrange your queries like this:
$query = SELECT Name, Address FROM users;
$result = mysql_query($query);
while($details = mysql_fetch_array($result)){
echo Name: $details[Name];
echo Address: $details[Address];
}
I'm working on a new site, and I'm wondering whether to use an

but you never know what the future holds. I figure that there's no
reason not to, but are there any down sides? Which abstraction layers
are good?
You have to put the same under [server]

Hi,
Can anyone help I'm going mad with this...
I'm using postgresql with php and writing a small login and sign-up system.
Whena user wishes to sign-up Iwant to check there are not any other users
with the same username, so I'm doing a select against the db with the
requested username before
if i get your point:
1 event can have more dates.. and you wanna show for each event just the
first date...
so you wanna show more from one table as the other one
in that case you should try to use the left join !! so check the manual on
left join

Ok, going out on a limb here... have you tried something like

dateTable d on e.id = d.id group by e.id

In my experience, (I haven't checked the docs just yet to figure out
exactly why), you can only work with one result id at a time. Every time
you call mysql_query, it resets the result id (I think it frees the
result id automatically so you can send another query before getting the
new result id),
That's not true. You can assign them to different variables and it works
fine.
$r1 = mysql_query(select * from main limit 1) or die(mysql_error());
$r2 = mysql_query(select * from apft limit 1) or die(mysql_error());
$row1 = mysql_fetch_array($r1);
$row2 = mysql_fetch_array($r2);

John is right. In fact one routinely calls two different $result(s) when
coding nested loops:
while( $details = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) ) {
while ( $Email = mysql_fetch_array( $result2 ) )
..
}
}
when executing the next instance of your loop:
while( $details = mysql_fetch_array(
Of course, you can avoid that problem if you use a join, I guess it all
comes down to code complexity vs SQL complexity.

actually you can make a .php file with your connection info, include it in

You could put it anywhere. Stick it in a text file somewhere, fopen()
and read the file for the password. Or keep it in a php script outside
of the web root if that's the issue, then just include() it when you
need to.
Of course any file you put it in will have to be readable by whatever

Are you sure you can include an encoded file into a non-encoded one?
I had forgotten about this option, but if you can find a worthwhile

Make sure that the encoder you use actually makes string unreadable.
Otherwise, you can use a simple trick, like for example XORing the whole
string with FF or something similar.
