This may or may not be obvious to people but perhaps it will help someone.
When running joins in SQL you may encounter a problem if you are trying to pull two columns with the same name. mysqli returns the last in the query when called by name. So to get what you need you can use an alias.
Below I am trying to join a user id with a user role. in the first table (tbl_usr), role is a number and in the second is a text name (tbl_memrole is a lookup table). If I call them both as role I get the text as it is the last "role" in the query. If I use an alias then I get both as desired as shown below.
<?php
$sql = "SELECT a.uid, a.role AS roleid, b.role,
FROM tbl_usr a
INNER JOIN tbl_memrole b
ON a.role = b.id
";
if ($result = $mysqli->query($sql)) {
while($obj = $result->fetch_object()){
$line.=$obj->uid;
$line.=$obj->role;
$line.=$obj->roleid;
}
}
$result->close();
unset($obj);
unset($sql);
unset($query);
?>
In this situation I guess I could have just renamed the role column in the first table roleid and that would have taken care of it, but it was a learning experience.

Sorgu herhangi bir değişken girdi içeriyorsa, bunun yerine bağımsız değişkenli hazırlanmış deyimler kullanılmalıdır. Veya, veriler düzgün biçimde biçimlendirilmeli ve tüm dizgeler mysqli_real_escape_string() işlevi kullanılarak öncelenmelidir.
For non-DML queries (not INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE), this function is similar to calling mysqli_real_query() followed by either mysqli_use_result() or mysqli_store_result().
Bilginize:
In the case where a statement is passed to mysqli_query() that is longer than
max_allowed_packetof the server, the returned error codes are different depending on whether you are using MySQL Native Driver (mysqlnd) or MySQL Client Library (libmysqlclient). The behavior is as follows:
mysqlndon Linux returns an error code of 1153. The error message meansgot a packet bigger than.max_allowed_packetbytes
mysqlndon Windows returns an error code 2006. This error message meansserver has gone away.
libmysqlclienton all platforms returns an error code 2006. This error message meansserver has gone away.

The result mode can be one of 3 constants indicating how the result will be returned from the MySQL server.
MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT(default) - returns a mysqli_result object with buffered result set.MYSQLI_USE_RESULT- returns a mysqli_result object with unbuffered result set. As long as there are pending records waiting to be fetched, the connection line will be busy and all subsequent calls will return errorCommands out of sync. To avoid the error all records must be fetched from the server or the result set must be discarded by calling mysqli_free_result().MYSQLI_ASYNC(available with mysqlnd) - the query is performed asynchronously and no result set is immediately returned. mysqli_poll() is then used to get results from such queries. Used in combination with eitherMYSQLI_STORE_RESULTorMYSQLI_USE_RESULTconstant.

The cryptic "Couldn't fetch mysqli" error message can mean any number of things, including:
1. You're trying to use a database object that you've already closed (as noted by ceo at l-i-e dot com). Reopen your database connection, or find the call to <?php mysqli_close($db); ?> or <?php $db->close(); ?> and remove it.
2. Your MySQLi object has been serialized and unserialized for some reason. Define a wakeup function to re-create your database connection. http://php.net/__wakeup
3. Something besides you closed your mysqli connection (in particular, see http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33772)
4. You mixed OOP and functional calls to the database object. (So, you have <?php $db->query() ?> in the same program as <?php mysqli_query($db) ?>).

When calling multiple stored procedures, you can run into the following error: "Commands out of sync; you can't run this command now".
This can happen even when using the close() function on the result object between calls.
To fix the problem, remember to call the next_result() function on the mysqli object after each stored procedure call. See example below:
<?php
// New Connection
$db = new mysqli('localhost','user','pass','database');
// Check for errors
if(mysqli_connect_errno()){
echo mysqli_connect_error();
}
// 1st Query
$result = $db->query("call getUsers()");
if($result){
// Cycle through results
while ($row = $result->fetch_object()){
$user_arr[] = $row;
}
// Free result set
$result->close();
$db->next_result();
}
// 2nd Query
$result = $db->query("call getGroups()");
if($result){
// Cycle through results
while ($row = $result->fetch_object()){
$group_arr[] = $row;
}
// Free result set
$result->close();
$db->next_result();
}
else echo($db->error);
// Close connection
$db->close();

"In PHP 8.1, the default error handling behavior of the MySQLi extension has changed from silencing errors to throw an Exception on errors. "
This is true even for the procedural use of mysqli, i.e. mysqli_query.
Hence, using if(!mysqli_query($c, $sql)) [...] is pointless.
To disable Exception throwing : mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_OFF);

Here is an example of a clean query into a html table
<table>
<tr>
<th>First Name</th>
<th>Last Name</th>
<th>City</th>
</tr>
<?php while ($row = $myquery->fetch_assoc()) { ?>
<tr>
<td><?php echo $row["firstname"]; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $row["lastname"]; ?></td>
<td><?php echo $row["city"];?></td>
</tr>
<?php } ?>
</table>

I like to save the query itself in a log file, so that I don't have to worry about whether the site is live.
For example, I might have a global function:
<?php
function UpdateLog ( $string , $logfile ) {
$fh = fopen ( $logfile , 'a' );
$fwrite ( $fh , strftime ('%F %T %z')." ".$string."\n";
fclose ( $fh );
}
?>
Then in my mysql function error trapper, something like this:
<?php
$error_msg = "Database error in [page].php / ";
$error_msg .= mysqli_error ( $link )." / ";
$error_msg .= $query;
UpdateLog ( $error_msg , DB_ERROR_LOG_FILE );
?>
I also include the remote IP, user agent, etc., but I left it out of these code samples. And have it e-mail me when an error is caught, too.

Translation:
"Couldn't fetch mysqli"
You closed your connection and are trying to use it again.
It has taken me DAYS to figure out what this obscure error message means...

Stored Procedures.
Use mysqli_query to call a stored procedure that returns a result set.
Here is a short example:
<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli(DBURI,DBUSER,DBPASS,DBNAME);
if (mysqli_connect_errno())
{
printf("Connection failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
$SQL = "CALL my_procedure($something)";
if ( ($result = $mysqli->query($SQL))===false )
{
printf("Invalid query: %s\nWhole query: %s\n", $mysqli->error, $SQL);
exit();
}
while ($myrow = $result->fetch_array(MYSQLI_ASSOC))
{
$aValue[]=$myrow["a"];
$bValue[]=$myrow["b"];
}
$result->close();
$mysqli->close();
?>
I hope this saves someone some time.

Calling Stored Procedures
Beeners' note/example will not work. Use mysqli_multi_query() to call a Stored Procedure. SP's have a second result-set which contains the status: 'OK' or 'ERR'. Using mysqli_query will not work, as there are multiple results.
<?php
$sQuery="CALL SomeSP('params')";
if(!mysqli_multi_query($sqlLink,$sQuery)) {
// your error handler
}
$sqlResult=mysqli_store_result($sqlLink);
if(mysqli_more_results($this->sqlLink))//Catch 'OK'/'ERR'
while(mysqli_next_result($this->sqlLink));
?>
You will have to rewrite/expand this a bit for more usability of course, but it's just an example.

For those using with replication enabled on their servers, add a mysqli_select_db() statement before any data modification queries. MySQL replication does not handle statements with db.table the same and will not replicate to the slaves if a scheme is not selected before.
Found out after days of resetting master and slaves on another site http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-server-73/mysql-5-1-not-replicating-properly-with-slave-823296/

Use difference collation/character for connect, result.
You can set the collation before your query.
E.g. want to set the collation to utf8_general_ci
you can send the query "SET NAMES 'utf8'" first
<?php
$mysqli=new mysqli('localhost', 'root', 'password', 'test');
$mysqli->query("SET NAMES 'utf8'");
$q=$mysqli->query("select * from test");
while($r=$q->fetch_assoc()) {
print_r($r);
}
?>
There are many variables about character settings.
By running sql command, SHOW VARIABLES LIKE 'char%';
There are some variables control the character usage.
character_set_client
character_set_connection
character_set_database
character_set_results
character_set_server
character_set_system
Also SET NAMES can repalce with one or some settings like SET character_set_results='utf8';

When building apps, i like to see the whole statement when if fails.
<?php
$q="SELECT somecolumn FROM sometable"; //some instruction
$r=mysqli_query($DBlink,$q) or die(mysqli_error($DBlink)." Q=".$q);
?>
If theres an error (like my numerous typing mistakes) this shows the entire instruction.
Good for development (not so good on production servers - simply find and replace when finished: $r=mysqli_query($DBlink,$q); )
Hope it helps. Jon

mysqli::query() can only execute one SQL statement.
Use mysqli::multi_query() when you want to run multiple SQL statements within one query.

Building inserts can be annoying. This helper function inserts an array into a table, using the key names as column names:
<?php
private function store_array (&$data, $table, $mysqli)
{
$cols = implode(',', array_keys($data));
foreach (array_values($data) as $value)
{
isset($vals) ? $vals .= ',' : $vals = '';
$vals .= '\''.$this->mysql->real_escape_string($value).'\'';
}
$mysqli->real_query('INSERT INTO '.$table.' ('.$cols.') VALUES ('.$vals.')');
}
?>
Adapt it to your specific needs.

Hi, i created function that add a new table using array , i work with it on my projects ...
<?PHP
/* this function was learned from PHP.net */
function array_keys_exist(&$key,array &$array){
$keys = split("\|",$key);
foreach($keys as $key_s){
if(array_key_exists($key_s, $array)) return true;
}
return false;
}
/*and this is my function */
array_create_table(array &$array){
if(is_array($array)){
$key = "table|rows|values";
$info = "";
if(array_keys_exist($key,$array)){
if(is_array($array["rows"]) and is_array($array["values"]) ){
if(count($array["rows"]) == count($array["values"])) {
for($i=0; $i<=count($array["rows"]); $i++){
$info = $info." ".$array["rows"][$i]." ".$array["values"][$i]." NOT NULL ";
if($i < count($array["rows"])-1 ) $info = $info.",";
}
$query = "CREATE TABLE ".$this->private_tables_name.$array["table"]." ";
$query .= "( id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY, ".$info." )";
return $query;
}
}
}else return "Error";
}
}
/* the use is simple */
$database = new database(); // connection to database i used mysqli ...
$array = array("table"=>"MRO", "rows"=>array("name","username") , "values" => array("VARCHAR (50) "," VARCHAR (50) ") );
$query = array_create_table($array); // convert and create the query ...
if($database->query($query)) echo "Work"; else echo "Error"; // result : work

The exact type returned by a successful query is mysqli_result.

or you could just extend the class...
in my case i already had a wraper for the db so something like this was easy :
public function free($result) {
$result->free_result();
$this->link->next_result();
}
just tried it and it works like a charm ;-)

Recently I had puzzling problem when performing DML queries, update in particular, each time a update query is called and then there are some more queries to follow this error will show on the page and go in the error_log:
"Fatal error: Exception thrown without a stack frame in Unknown on line 0"
The strange thing is that all queries go through just fine so it didn't make much sense:
$update = mysqli_query($connection, $query_string);
if(!$update){
echo 'Houston we have a problem '.mysqli_error($connection);
exit;
}
In the above example "$update" is "true", mysqli_error() is empty and of course the update operation goes through, however the nasty super cryptic error appears on the page.
What makes even less sense to me is how I fixed it - just called "mysqli_free_result" after the update query and the problem was gone, however because mysqli_free_result is not supposed to be called after DML queries (to free what, a boolean? lol) it needs to be wrapped in a try catch block:
try{
mysqli_free_result($update);
}catch (Exception $e){
//do nothing
}
So, I don't know why but it seems that when DML queries are responsible for:
"Fatal error: Exception thrown without a stack frame in Unknown on line 0"
calling "mysqli_free_result" after the query seems to be fixing the issue

If you use the default resultmode of MYSQLI_STORE_RESULT, you can call $mysqli->close() right after $mysqli->query and before you use mysqli_result. This reduces the time the connection is open, which can help if the database server has a limit on how many connections there can be.
