What are you intending to do with $peek? You only use it once and it's
sucking up one of your rows.

Subject: seemingly anomalous behaviour in Selects entered manually vs.
in a script
Hi!
I've got this seemingly anomalous situation that occurs when using a SELECT.
If I use the MYSQL command line thing and SELECT * FROM QUESTIONS, it tells
me that there are 7 rows in the set. There are, in fact 7 rows. Perfect.
HOWEVER, if I execute the following script I always get 1 row fewer than
exist. If there ought to be only 1 row in the result I get nothing
displayed!
============ SNIP ============
<?php
MYSQL_CONNECT("localhost","yourID","yourPASSWORD");
mysql_select_db("yourDATABASE");
$ex=@MYSQL_QUERY("select * from questions where uid='1' ");
echo '<table width="95%" border="1" cellspacing="4" cellpadding="4"
align="center" bgcolor="#FFFFCC" bordercolorlight="#CCCCFF"
bordercolordark="#999999">';
echo "<form action=\"integrateTest.php3\" method=\"GET\">";
//THE NEXT TWO LINES -- TRY EXECUTING ONE SELECT AND THEN COMMENT THE OTHER
LINE AND EXECUTE THE OTHER SELECT
//$ex=@MYSQL_QUERY("select * from questions where uid='1' ");
$ex=@MYSQL_QUERY("select * from questions ");
$peek=@mysql_fetch_row($ex);
while($row = mysql_fetch_array($ex))
{
$var=$row["uid"];
echo "<tr> <td><div align=\"left\">";
echo "<b>select: </b><input type='checkbox' name='ID[]' value='$var'>";
echo "</b></div> <div align=\"left\"><b>Question:</b>
$row[question]</div></td> </tr>";
}
echo "</table>";
echo ' <p align=center><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Create
Test"> </form></p>';
?>
============ SNIP ============
I suspect that it is something ridiculous that I am doing (or not doing),
but I just don't see it.
Would someone mind setting me straight on what I'm not doing correctly?
Thanks heaps!
