8,110 PointsChange the query to a prepared statement that binds the passed argument before executing the query.
I am not sure what is wrong with my code in this case. After checking a couple of threads about this Coding Challenge I am not sure what I am doing wrong. The error that is thrown is Oops! It looks like Task 2 is no longer passing but the goal of the third task is to change the WHERE media_id = $media.id to WHERE media_id = ? then use $results->bindParam();
Can anyone help me out? Really not sure what I am missing here...
<?php
function get_member($member_id) {
include("connection.php");
try {
$results = $db->prepare(
"SELECT member_id, email, fullname, level
FROM members
WHERE member_id = ?"
);
$results->bindParam(1, $member_id, PDO::PARAM_INT);
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo "bad query";
}
$members = $results->fetchAll();
return $members;
}

You missed calling the execute method. Here is the full, correct code!
<?php
function get_member($member_id) {
include("connection.php");
try {
$results = $db->prepare(
"SELECT member_id, email, fullname, level
FROM members
WHERE member_id = ?"
);
$results->bindParam(1,$member_id,PDO::PARAM_INT);
$results->execute();
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo "bad query";
}
$members = $results->fetchAll();
return $members;
}
