You should be passing the connection resource ($dbh) to mysql_query (), not the result of mysql_select_db(). mysql_select_db() just returns a boolean.

Gentlemen;

I've been playing with this for a full day now trying various formats without luck. I'm convinced that I must be missing something.

So, before the weekend come around and I literally forget everything I know about this, I thought I would post my error sections for some peer assistance.

Can someone please take a look and see if there is anything obvious and advise (I'm beyond embarrassment). The lines beginning with >>>> are debugging lines to show what is contained in certain fields.

As you can see by the Warning message... mysql is stating that the $rtn field I am sending is NOT a valid resource. However, it is the result of the previous mysql_select_db and seems OK.

What am I missing???

Thanks all!
