Date formatting not working
I have date formatting for my blog working fine on the initial page using...
However, when I try to use it on a results page I get a 'Query was empty' error'
This code works fine without formatting..
but when I try to format it like the first bit of code the error occurs...
Any ideas why the formatting is causing this error?
mysql_select_db($database_GrandRoofing, $GrandRoofing);
$query_Recordset1 = "SELECT id, intro, title, date_format(`eventdate`,'%D %M %Y') as `formattedDate`, copy, images, category FROM news ORDER BY eventdate DESC";
$query_limit_Recordset1 = sprintf("%s LIMIT %d, %d", $query_Recordset1, $startRow_Recordset1, $maxRows_Recordset1);
$Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_limit_Recordset1, $GrandRoofing) or die(mysql_error());
$row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1);
However, when I try to use it on a results page I get a 'Query was empty' error'
This code works fine without formatting..
$colname_Recordset1 = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['id'])) {
$colname_Recordset1 = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['id'] : addslashes($_GET['id']);
}
mysql_select_db($database_GrandRoofing, $GrandRoofing);
$query_Recordset1 = sprintf("SELECT id, intro, title, eventdate, copy, images, category FROM news WHERE id = %s", GetSQLValueString($colname_Recordset1, "int"));
$Recordset1 = mysql_query($query_Recordset1, $GrandRoofing) or die(mysql_error());
$row_Recordset1 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset1);
$totalRows_Recordset1 = mysql_num_rows($Recordset1);
