I have two subsequent mysqli statements, and the second returns:
Fatal error: Call to a member function bind_param() on a non-object in …
Why this happens? Does this means that I need to open two different connection? Is there any way to avoid this (I love keeping the SQL connection details in one file)?
Here the code:
$db = new mysqli('localhost', 'root', '', 'database'); $stmt = $db->prepare('UPDATE posts SET vote_'.$_POST['vote'].' = vote_'.$_POST['vote'].' + 1 WHERE id=?'); $stmt->bind_param('s', $_POST['id_post']); $stmt->execute(); $stmt->close(); $stmt = $db->prepare('INSERT INTO votes (kind, users_id, posts_id) VALUES (?, ?, ?)'); $stmt->bind_param('sss',$_POST['vote'],$_POST['id_user'],$_POST['id_post']); $stmt->execute(); $stmt->close();
Check the return value of mysqli::prepare. If it is FALSE, you should get the details for the occured error with mysqli::error.
