mysqli并访问同一个数据库中的两个不同的表

Question

lately I've been getting an error undefined variable mysqli and I was wondering - is it because I'm accessing two different tables in the same database?

$mysqli = new mysqli('localhost', 'myuser', 'qwerty', 'mydb');

if(!empty($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) && strtolower($_SERVER['HTTP_X_REQUESTED_WITH']) == 'xmlhttprequest')
{
    //initialise vars
    $username = $_POST['username'];

    $checkRecord = $mysqli->query("SELECT information, blahblah FROM table1 WHERE username='$username' AND field1='$field1' AND field2=$field2");

    if(!$checkRecord->num_rows) 
    {
        echo "nothing retreived";
    }   
    else
    {
        $catch = $checkRecord->fetch_object();

        $newsessionnumber = get_new_session_number($username, $ip, $userAgent);

        $senddata = array(
            'newsessionnumber' => $newsessionnumber,
            'info' => $catch->information, 
            'blahblah' => $catch->blahblah, 
            'username' => $username 
        );

        echo json_encode($senddata); 
    }   
}

function get_new_session_number($username, $ip, $userAgent)
{   
    $mysqli->query("INSERT INTO sessionnumberdispatch VALUES (NULL, '$username', NOW(), '$ip', '$userAgent')");

    $newsessionnumber = $mysqli->insert_id;
    return $newsessionnumber;       
}

Answer 1

The $mysqli object is not getting recognized inside get_new_session_number() .

Use the global keyword:

function get_new_session_number($username, $ip, $userAgent)
{   
    global $mysqli;
    $mysqli->query("INSERT INTO sessionnumberdispatch VALUES (NULL, '$username', NOW(), '$ip', '$userAgent')");

    $newsessionnumber = $mysqli->insert_id;
    return $newsessionnumber;       
}
