MySQL Stored Procedures not working with SELECT (basic question)

Question

I am using a platform (perfectforms) that requires me to use stored procedures for most of my queries, and having never used stored procedures, I can\'t figure out what I\'m

Answer 1

Figured it out. This is not a bug with PHP (though it used to be) - it's a bug in some versions of phpmyadmin. The same bug intermittently reappears and is then fixed in various subversions (see above):

#1312 - PROCEDURE [name] can't return a result set in the given context

This behavior appears limited to SELECT statements within stored procedures inside phpmyadmin.

Using a client like MySQL Workbench works around the problem (or you could upgrade phpmyadmin, but that's a pain if you're on a shared server like I am).

Anyway, thanks to everyone for your help.
