You are mixing procedural mysqli and mysqli object-style programming

pretty sure that method of connecting to mysqli is deprecated, you should be using the object driven one anyway.

>>61833836
search for PHP PDO
Use this instead. Really. Make sure you use it right, because sql-injections can kill you. My bird died that way. It was insane.

>>61833765
nah, both are actually deprecated and have been since php 5.5, 5.6 kills it entirely and 7.0 it doesnt even exist.
>>
>>61833558
as long as it's mysqli it's fine. Doesn't matter if you do it procedurally or OOP.
>>61833035
mysqli_free_result has no return value.

PHP7 kills mysql, not mysqli.

Pick one. Better yet, just use CodeIgniter

mysqli::query returns an object of class mysql_result, not a PHP resource
