Cannot select first name and group from DB:

Question

My code for select is this:

$user_check_query="SELECT first_name,group FROM users WHERE username=?";
$query=$bd->prepare($user_check_query);
$query->bind_param('s',$username);
$query->execute();
$query->bind_result($first_name,$group);
$query->fetch();

The error is - Fatal error: Call to a member function bind_param() on a non-object in C:\\xampp\\htdocs\\project1\\test.php on line 9, at line 9 is the bind_param. The fields into the database are not empty and here their screenshot: http://prikachi.com/images/786/7271786g.png The table is users, i've checked that.

Answer 1

group is a reserved key word. You need to backtic it as

`group`


SELECT first_name,`group` FROM users WHERE username=?
