Hi Guys !
I am getting my query working but i dont know a Notice message on top on query result !

Notice: Use of undefined constant admin - assumed 'admin' in C:\xampp\htdocs\test\mysql.php on line 13
A total of 1 records were found.

I am using two diffent pages for my web are:

connection.inc.php

PHP

<?php
function dbConnect($type) {
if ($type == 'query') {
$user = 'globalluser';
$pwd = 'member';
}
elseif ($type == 'admin') {
$user = 'globalladmin';
$pwd = 'essendon';
}
else {
exit('Unrecognized connection type');
}
// Connection code goes here

    $mysql_host = 'localhost';
    $mysql_user = 'globalladmin';
    $mysql_pass = 'essendon';

    $mysql_db = 'globall';

if (!mysql_connect($mysql_host, $mysql_user, $mysql_pass) || !mysql_select_db($mysql_db)){
die(mysql_error());
}
}

?>

mysql.php

// connect to MySQL
$conn = dbConnect(admin);

// prepare the SQL query
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM customer';

// submit the query and capture the result
$result = mysql_query($sql) or die(mysql_error());

// find out how many records were retrieved
$numRows = mysql_num_rows($result);
?>

Solution 1

The message says that PHP is being good to you. In

PHP

// connect to MySQL
$conn = dbConnect(admin);

you left out the quotes surrounding admin. PHP couldn't find a symbol of that name, so it guessed you wanted quotes around it. Then it went on and did your query successfully.

Cheers,
Peter
