Hi Nathaniel,

When your query starts its second loop, the resultset from the first one is 
still defined as the resultset in your prepared statement object.  Before you 
can get another resultset, you need to clear the first one using the 
mysqli_stmt_free_result function.  It would probably be best to place the 
free_result call after each call to fetch.  Check 
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysqli-free-result.php for more details 
about it.

Regards,
Carlton Whitehead

Subject: [PHP] Performing Multiple Prepared Queries

All,

I am attempting to perform multiple prepared queries using mysqli.  I
want to pull information out of one table based on the information in
another.  I do not receive any errors and the rest of the page seems to
load correctly.  Below is my code:

foreach ($uniqueids as $entryid) {
 $getentrybyid->bind_param("i", $entryid);
 $getentrybyid->execute();
 $getentrybyid->bind_result($level, $published, $updated, $title, $body,
$resources, $signature, $comments);
 $getentrybyid->fetch();
 $getentrybyid->close();

 $getsignaturebyid->bind_param("i", $signature);
 $getsignaturebyid->execute();
 $getsignaturebyid->bind_result($fname, $lname);
 $getsignaturebyid->fetch();
 $getsignaturebyid->close();

 printEntry($title, $level, $published, $updated, "$fname $lname",
$body, $resources);

 if ($comments == 'y') {
  echo "<div class=\"viewcomment\"><a
href=\"$http_path?entryid=$entryid\">View Comments...</a></div>\n";
 }
}

What ends up happening is the first query (getentrybyid) works just fine
and displays when told.  The second query (getsignaturebyid) does not
get the information that it is supposed to, thus the variable is empty.

NOTE:  I have moved the close() functions outside of the foreach loop
and it partially works.  It starts displaying the information it is
supposed ($fname $lname) but it repeats the rest of the information.

Any thoughts?
