Question

I have the following code which works:

$date1 = mysql_query("SELECT date1 FROM Users WHERE username='".$_SESSION['username']."'") 
    or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($date1)){
    $lastViewedDate = $row[0];
}

But when I try to use mysql_fetch_object I get an Internal Server Error 500.

$date1 = mysql_query("SELECT date1 FROM Users WHERE username='".$_SESSION['username']."'") 
    or die(mysql_error());
while($row = mysql_fetch_object($date1)){
    $lastViewedDate = $row["date1"];
}

I would prefer to use the objects in the future but I don’t understand why they aren’t working. Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

With fetch_object the syntax is :

$row->date1 

with fetch_assoc the syntax is:

$row["date1"]

Also please.. for everything that is holy.. Turn E_NOTICE error messaging and display_errors on
