I thought that &$q created a new instance ie a copy of the data rather than
a pointer.
That worked though I have do a $q_id-- in my num_rows method because sizeof
returns 1 but the way the value is being assigned it is being put in the 0
location. Though that is not a problem. Would it be better to parse out
the data into arrays that I can access later then destroy the query?
for example
$q = mysql_query("select * from User");
$this->query_id[] = mysql_num_rows($q);
mysql_free_result($q);
$len = sizeof($this->query_id) - 1;
return $len;
This way when I have a large number of queries stored I don't have the over
head of all the pointers to the query objects or would doing this create
more overhead?
I'm trying to save on repeated calls to the database since it is possible
that the database may change between with the first query is done and the
last query is done and if they are the same query then the page would need
the results to be the same.
