While Loop Problem

I've got a coding problem here that I could use some help with.

Here's my db class (the config.php only has db connection info):

************************************************************ ********


// db_handler.inc

require_once("config.php");

class db {

var $mySQLresult;

function db() {

$this->dbConn = mysql_connect(DB_HOST, DB_USER, DB_PW);
mysql_select_db(DB_NAME, $this -> dbConn) or
die(mysql_error());
}

function db_Select($tables, $columns="'*'", $conditions="") {

$sql = "SELECT ".$columns." FROM ".$tables." ".$conditions;
$row = mysql_query($sql, $this -> dbConn) or
die(mysql_error());
$this->mySQLresult = $row;
}

function db_Fetch($type = MYSQL_BOTH) { //MYSQL_ASSOC
$row = mysql_fetch_array($this -> mySQLresult, $type) or
die(mysql_error());
if ($row) {
return $row;
} else {
return FALSE;
}
}
}

?>

************************************************************ ********

Here's the code I'm executing:

************************************************************ ********


require_once("includes/db_handler.inc");
require_once("includes/config.php");

echo "Hit 1
";

$sql = new db;
$result = $sql -> db_Select(DB_TABLE_ORG_INFO);
while ($row = $sql -> db_Fetch()) {

$organization_disclaimer =
$row['organization_disclaimer'];
}

echo "Hit 2
";

?>

************************************************************ ********

For some reason, the while loop is halting execution and won't display
"echo "Hit 2
";". The script just stops executing.

Any idea's why?

I'm using php5

Don't use 'or die()' here. If there are no further results (rows are =

finished), mysql_fetch_array() will return false, the die() will be =

executed, with nothing to display as there is no mysql_error(), it's jus=

worked correctly.

And don't die() in production. Log the error, and degrade as gracefull a=

you can.

Sorry for the delay in response, I've had trouble with my connection.

That was my problem. Thank you very much for the help and advise.

I hope you and everyone else had a great holiday.

Don't use 'or die()' here. If there are no further results (rows are
finished), mysql_fetch_array() will return false, the die() will be
executed, with nothing to display as there is no mysql_error(), it's just
worked correctly.

And don't die() in production. Log the error, and degrade as gracefull as
you can.
