Hello PHP world!!! i've just finisched installing Apache 1.3.27 with PHP4 and 1.4 in Windows 2000. 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!!!
