Hi,

I cannot seem to get the report to produce a result. I am sure it is something simple, but it escapes me. Here is what my report looks.


Report: All animals in zoo

Nick Gender Birth date Weight, kg
Totals for 0
Totals for category 0
Summary for all animals (0) 0

The tables are all there with values, and there is no error message. I echoed the login data and it was all correct for my database. I am testing on an Apache/2.2.21 with PHP/5.3.8 AND MySQL version 5.0.8.

Have you any idea what the problem could be?

Geoff.

I found the problem, and it was simple. I was assuming that the username, password and database could be passed as parameters (e.g. $username, $password & $database) which had been set up previously. I should have tested this properly, Sorry.
The actual details have to be input into
$as_dbengine->Connect('localhost','','','dbase');

It is working fine and thank you for this useful class
