With php when you include vars in double quotes don't you want to put curly braces around them like so?That's how I do it but I've been doing it so long I don't remember why.
$query = "SELECT * FROM Pet WHERE petType='{$pettype}'";
Anyway, I would guess this is a php issue and not an apache problem.
Turn up your php error reporting. Off the top of my head something like this at the top of your script.
error_reporting(E_ALL);
php.net is your friend:
http://php.net/while
http://php.net/error_reporting

Hi,
I have set up an environment on my Vista laptop comprising of Apache 2.2, MySQL Server 5.1 and Php 5.2.5.
I'm using a simple php program that I found in a PHP/SQL book. The PHP program queries a MySQL table and uses a WHILE loop to traverse the results array of the query and display on screen. However, there seems to be a problem with my environment and using a WHILE loop as every time I run the program I get the error "Apache HTTP server stopped working and was closed".
I have no problems using a FOR loop but every time I use a WHILE loop Apache seems to crash. Please see below for the code I have used.
I would be extremely for any suggestions of why this is happening and any solutions offered.
Thanks.
