Strange array issue, never happened before.

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

mysql_fetch_array returns 1 array per call. Generally that's why it is inserted into a while statement. I generally loop through them in a while statement and put them all in a master array so I have all the results in one place instead of having to use them on the spot in the while loop. So here is what I generally do:
// If the flag all is set then run an "all" query. else we need to do some specifics on the query instead.
Code: [Select]<?php
if ($flag['all'] == 1) {
$sql = 'SELECT * FROM data_resources';
}else {
$sql = '';
}

#### Run Query ####
$data = array(); //This is the master array that will contain all results.
$query = mysql_query($sql);
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($query, MYSQL_ASSOC)) {
$data[] = $row;
}
?>
If I echo out the data array inside the while statement it works properly, but when I try to access it outside of the while it doesn't work. What is going on? Normally this works just fine.
