Question

I was wondering if someone could help me with this problem.
I want to print/echo the solution of the function multiple times on the same page. Is that possible?

Here’s my function:

public function getFeedback($p_iUserid) {

    include("Connection.php"); //open db

    try
    {
        $sql = "select DiaryOpmerkingen, DiaryDoctorcomment from tblDiary 
                WHERE fk_UserId = ".$p_iUserid."
                AND DiaryDay = '".$this->Day."';";
        $rResult = mysqli_query($link, $sql);
        return $rResult;
    }
    catch(Exception $e)
    {
        // no connection database
        $feedback = $e->getMessage();
    }
    mysqli_close($link);
}

And this is how I manage to call on the function by now. But it only works once:

if(mysqli_num_rows($feedbackPatient) > 0)
                    {
                        while($oUser = mysqli_fetch_assoc($allUsers))
                        {
                            echo $oUser['DiaryOpmerkingen'];
                        }
                    }

I hope someone can help!
Thanks anyway.

Create a function for your printing task, then call it as many times as you want:

function print_the_stuff($feedbackPatient){

if(mysqli_num_rows($feedbackPatient) > 0)
                    {
                        while($oUser = mysqli_fetch_assoc($allUsers))
                        {
                            echo $oUser['DiaryOpmerkingen'];
                        }
                    }
}

Then, wherever you need to print:

print_the_stuff($feedbackPatient);
