Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given

This warning usually indicates that the execution of your query failed. So use a tool (phpMyAdmin) to check if your query runs correctly.

Member Avatar for hwoarang69

i dont know how to user phpmyadmin to check query.
to fix this problem should i

while($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($R))

change this line to while($R)?

Member Avatar for pritaeas

No, the problem is in the query.

Member Avatar for hwoarang69

any idea how to debug this?

Member Avatar for pritaeas 
$R = mysql_query($Q) or die(mysql_error());
Member Avatar for hwoarang69

i got this error

"Subquery returns more than 1 row"

Member Avatar for diafol 
$Q = "SELECT (SELECT image_short_name FROM user) as `image_short_name`"
.",`image_id`,`user_id`,`image_short_name`,`image`"
." FROM `image`"
." ORDER BY RAND()"
." LIMIT 5";

This is wrong. The content after first SELECT expects fieldnames. The subquery needs to go after FROM.

You'd be better off doing a JOIN. I can't see how your tables match up though. Which fields are related? Is there a joined ID?

Member Avatar for hwoarang69

i have two tables
user->user_id, username, firstname, lastname
image->image_id, user_id, image, image_full_name, image_short_name..etc
and i am tried to do is to echo random 5 images from image table.

so do you mean something like this?

    $Q = "SELECT (SELECT image_short_name FROM user JOIN image) as `image_short_name`"
    .",`image_id`,`user_id`,`image_short_name`,`image`"
    ." FROM `image`"
    ." ORDER BY RAND()"
    ." LIMIT 5";
    $R = mysql_query($Q);

..than print image

$src = "data:image/gif;base64," . $image_db;
 echo" <a href=\"zoom.php?img={$row['image_id']}\"><img src=\"$src\" width='130px' height='130px' class='image_p' /></a>";

OK the joined fields will be user_id:

"SELECT u.username, i.image_id, i.image_short_name, i.image FROM `user` AS u INNER JOIN `image` AS i ON u.user_id = i.user_id WHERE u.user_id = 1 ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 5"

Obviously change the WHERE clause to suit your needs.
This will output the fields: username | image_id | image_short_name | image
Again change the field list to suit your needs.

Member Avatar for hwoarang69

why cant i do some thing simple like

$Q ="SELECT * from image ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 5"; ?
Member Avatar for diafol

You can - but you're the one that included user into the mix. I was just following your lead.

    $count = 0;
    $Q ="SELECT * from image ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 10";
