    <p>Try calling $result->close() before you call the second query, in order to release the connection. Your PHP script hasn't finished executing yet, and your previous result is holding that connection open. In general, it is good practice to explicitly clean up these kinds of resources rather than leaving it to the runtime.</p> <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> I believe @eis is correct that since this is the older (and deprecated, incidentally) mysql_ api, that the proper call would actually be mysql_free_result($result).</p> <p><strong>ANOTHER EDIT:</strong> I put this comment under @eis's answer, but I figure it bears bolder type, because @eis's answer was absolutely right and should not have been down-voted:</p> <p>Just to elaborate redundantly on the whole buffered vs. unbuffered thing; the <em>concept</em> is that a <strong>buffered</strong> query will read all of the results back from the database into a buffer, then release the connection automatically (this will happen synchronously, so that the connection is free for another call immediately after the buffered call returns). An <strong>unbuffered</strong> query will essentially open the connection and hand back a reference to a database server cursor, from which you will then need to fetch records. As long as there is something left to fetch, the cursor is still open, and you won't be using the underlying connection for <em>anything</em> else. Or you can call mysql_free_result() and free the connection "early" (without reading all of the rows from the cursor first).</p>

    1. COas this is legacy mysql_ api, I do think you need to use mysql_free_result($result) instead of $result->close(), like I proposed (and got downvoted for :p)

    2. COI was surprised you got downvoted. I might add that I have read elsewhere that PDO isn't really used by folks inside Oracle and they aren't all great-guns about maintaining it, so +1 for recommending mysqli.

    3. CODid http://www.php.net really just go down? I guess that earlier "mysql_query() returns an object...really?" comment disappeared. I'm not sure what one would expect it to return; a poodle? According to the docs, it returns a resource, or false. A "resource" (ahem) would be one of them there object thingeys, seeing as how a resource is defined as a reference to external stuff, "external stuff" being specifically defined only in the context of the specific resource type.

Querying!

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
