"'"); ociexecute($statement1); ocifetchstatement($statement1, &$rowset1, 0, 100, OCI_ASSOC | OCI_FETCHSTATEMENT_BY_ROW); // at this stage $rowset1 contains some records from the table // option 2: use namebinding: $rowset2 = array(); $statement2 = ociparse($database_connection, "SELECT services FROM location WHERE postalcode=:postalcode"); ocibindbyname($statement2, ":postalcode", &$postalcode, 4); ociexecute($statement2); ocifetchstatement($statement2, &$rowset2, 0, 100, OCI_ASSOC | OCI_FETCHSTATEMENT_BY_ROW); // at this stage $rowset2 is still an empty array ?> Both queries should result in the same data but as soon as I use the binding no rows are returned. I can't see what I'm doing wrong here. Can someone help me?
