I've installed all off the scripts that function all right in Linux Red Hat in Windows 2000, but when it comes to do a simple select to a table that does exist and the select is all right there appears a message as if the query weren't all right at all: Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in g:\apache\apache\htdocs\digimedia\adm_central\index.php on line 18 What could it be? I really appreciate the great help you have been giving to me these days. Thank you very much!!!
