    I apologize for the late response, I didn’t notice you replied again… I think to be on the safe side, you should always close a connection, but I will admit that I don’t do it half the time and haven’t run into any major problems.

  2. Sabooru says:

    actually should mySql close connection be used after the scores have been received?
    mysql_close – or is it unimportant because its not a persistent connection?

  3. Sabooru says:

    ah i just figured it out. When I connected to mySqlAdmin I connected correctly there but I’d put the name of the table in where the name of the database should have been and it screwed everything up. It works perfectly now :) going to move on to the next part of the tutorial

  4. projectfinale says:

    it shouldn’t be… It is being set to the results… It should equal 1 if it is returned correctly… which would make it go through the while loop…

    it works fine for me still… the only think i could think of is to set it to 0 above…

    $line = 0;

    just put it at the top so it is initialized… otherwise i would look up the error in google and see what results you get

  5. Sabooru says:

    is $line an undefined variable?

  6. Sabooru says:

    I’ve already connected properly to the database. I played around with it initially and got disconnected errors so I returned it to the way it was and the errors disappeared so I am connected to the database I’m pretty sure

  7. projectfinale says:

    If you check, I failed to add in the connect to database in the code, because i was filling in my own… so add this code and it should work fine…

    $link = mysql_connect(SERVER,USERNAME,PASSWORD);
    mysql_select_db(DATABASE NAME);

    Add those lines in at the top of the PHP code and it should work fine, fill in the all caps variables first

  8. Sabooru says:

    Hey I used your code but I keep getting errors

    Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in [filepath].scores on line 9

    I’ve connected my database and made the for loop.

    I think it has problems with if($line = mysql_fetch_assoc($results)){

    I get $line an undefined variable when I play around

    Any such luck? Going to look at your other videos now
