I have the following two prepared statements. The db connection and queries are correct, I have tested them within phpmyadmin. I also tested inside of my while fetch loop to see if I am pulling the data I am supposed to be and I am.
The problem resides in my while and foreach loops or possibly my num rows statement. I am not sure what I am doing incorrectly in there.
I am getting this error:
Warning: mysqli::query() expects parameter 1 to be string, object given
For this while loop:
while ($row2 = $result->fetch_assoc() ) {
I am also getting my else statement..
echo "<p>This topic does not exist.</p>";
Even though the info is echoing out correctly, again I just think my loops are wrong?
Does anyone see what I am doing wrong in my loops?
