reset() expects parameter 1 to be array
Posted: Fri Dec 18, 2009 12:36 pm
I get the following error:
reset() expect parameter 1 to be array, string given in <file name>
My array is loading properly, I get the expect output from: echo $row['nperi'] etc.
However, echo $row[0][0] gives me the wrong output while echo $row[0] gives me the correct output. What am I missing here. I have the feeling all of it is connected.
BTW - The above code example was taken from some other code kindly provided to me here. My goal is to get the first element in the first row of an array and the first element in the last row of an array (multidimensional of course).
Here's the example I'm working from:
reset() expect parameter 1 to be array, string given in <file name>
Code: Select all
$tempnpertotal = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tempnper ORDER BY nperi")
or die(mysql_error());
$row = mysql_fetch_array($tempnpertotal);
$top = reset($row);
$bottom = end($row);
echo reset($top);
echo reset($bottom);
However, echo $row[0][0] gives me the wrong output while echo $row[0] gives me the correct output. What am I missing here. I have the feeling all of it is connected.
