Was going over my code to turn all my queries into prepared queries (PDO). I changed my connection page accordingly. As I was cleaning up my functions page I came across the error mysql_error() expects parameter 1 to be resource, integer given
which referred to my email function
email_exists($email){
$query1 = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(user_id) FROM tempusers WHERE
`email` = '$email'") OR die(mysql_error(0));
$email = sanitize($email);
return (mysql_result($query1,0)==1)? true : false;
}
Because it is a function page meaning I can't call on the variables in my connection page coupled with the fact I'm still stuck in the old query ways I'm having a hard time fixing this query. I'd appreciate any ideas on the process of making this query work as well as any tips in general.
