mysql - PHP MySQLi Fatal call to member function fetch_array() for a non-object -


yes...this question has been posted many times. here's example: fatal error: call member function query()on non-object. i've looked through many of these duplicate posts , cannot find solution

i pulled (working) code website ( nine-to-five )

but revised code (which different post) include code mentioned in post's answers , i'm still getting error:

// credentials   $dbhost = "localhost";   $dbname = "qmsdb";   $dbuser = "root";   $dbpass = "";    //    connection   global $tutorial_db;    $tutorial_db = new mysqli();   $tutorial_db->connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass, $dbname);   $tutorial_db->set_charset("utf8");    //    check connection   if ($tutorial_db->connect_errno) {      printf("connect failed: %s\n", $tutorial_db->connect_error);      exit();   }     // search      $search_string = preg_replace("/[^a-za-z0-9]/", " ", $_post['query']);      $search_string = $tutorial_db->real_escape_string($search_string);    // check length more 1 character      if (strlen($search_string) >= 1 && $search_string !== ' ') {    // build query   $query = 'select * compressors munpn "%'.$search_string.'%" or name "%'.$search_string.'%"';    // search   $result = mysql_query($query);   while($results = $result->fetch_array()) {       $result_array[] = $results; }      .... more code doesn't apply....      } 

the error is: "fatal call member function fetch_array() on non object" , line points to:

    while($results=$results->fetch_array()) { 

i'm new php/mysql - on appreciated.

thanks!

.

mysql_*() functions not, , have never been, object-oriented:

$tutorial_db = new mysqli();                         ^----note "i"   $result = mysql_query($query);                ^-- note lack of "i" while($results = $result->fetch_array()) {                  ^^^^^^^^---- not object, because mysql_*() functions not objects 

you cannot use db handle/object created in 1 db library (pdo, mysqli, mysql) in of other libraries. may talking mysql under hood, respective handles/objects not inter-compatible.
