warning:mysql_fetch_array() expects parameter 1 to be resource, object given

Question

Hey guys, I'm getting the above warning when I try to run this code:

$mysqli=new mysqli("localhost", "***", "***","***") or die(mysql_error());


              function checklogin($username, $password){
                global $mysqli;


                $result = $mysqli->prepare("SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ?");
                $result->bind_param("s", $username);
                $result->execute();

            if($result != false){

                $dbArray=mysql_fetch_array($result);

Answer 1

You are mixing mysql and mysqli calls in your code. Use mysqli_fetch_array instead of mysql_fetch_array.

Answer 2

You are mixing mysqli and traditional mysql commands.

Use $result->fetch_array().

Answer 3

You're using two different sets of functions... mysqli and mysql.
I think you want to use the fetch_assoc() method.
