Add error checking to all MySQL API calls and the problem will becomeI highly recommend anyone using MySQL use either AdoDB <http://php.weblogs.com/adodb> or write their own handler (wrapper) functions around the MySQL library calls. Most of my code uses something that looks like:
apparent. Right now you're assuming they all "just work" (except for
the mysql_connect()) but they probably don't.
$Vehicles = db_get_vehicles($Params);
meta_show_vehicles($Vehicles, $Format);
... where db_get_vehicles might do something like:
if (!($Params = sql_check_params($Params))) return -1;
list ($rows, $error) = sql_do_query("SELECT ... FROM Vehicles LEFT JOIN ... WHERE $Params");
...
return $rows;
I worry about connecting, doing the actual query once connected and error checking in sql_do_query, so my main code looks clean(er).
