Multi URL paramaters with PHP and SQL - php

Question

<?php
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$hostname = "localhost";
$database = "database";
//connection to the database
$dbhandle = mysql_connect($hostname, $username, $password)
or die("Unable to connect to MySQL");
$selected = mysql_select_db($database,$dbhandle)
or die("Could not select database");
$id = 0;
if(isset($_GET['Day'])){ $id = (int)$_GET['Day']; }
if(!$id){
$query = "SELECT * FROM `TimeTable`";
} else {
$query = "SELECT * FROM `TimeTable` WHERE `Day`='".$id."'";
}
$result = mysql_query($query);
$rows = array();
while($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$rows[] = $r;
}
or die(mysql_error());
print json_encode($rows);
?>
This code worked previously, but has now stopped, and is producing Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LOGICAL_OR in /Directory/TimeTable.php on line 27
I am also looking to add more parameters, (eg: Where Day = $id and Year = $Year )

Answer 1

while($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$rows[] = $r;
}
or die(mysql_error());
This is a syntax error, doesn't know what to do with that or die() statement. Change to this:
$result = mysql_query($query);
if (!$result) {
die('Error');
}
while(...) {
}

Answer 2

I have looked up the new mysql functions an have changed to mysqli.
<?php
$username = "username";
$password = "password";
$hostname = "localhost";
$database = "database";
$link = mysqli_connect($hostname, $username, $password, $database);
if(mysqli_connect_errno()){
echo mysqli_connect_error();
}
$id= 0;
if(isset($_GET['Day'])){ $id=(int)$_GET['Day']; }
$year = 0;
if(isset($_GET['Year'])){ $year=(int)$_GET['Year'];}
if(!$id){
$query = "SELECT * FROM TimeTable";
} else {
if (!year) {
$query = "Select * FROM TimeTable";
} else {
$query = "SELECT * FROM TimeTable WHERE Day=$id AND Year=$year";
}
}
$rows = array();
//Perform JSON encode
if($result = mysqli_query($link, $query)){
while($r = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)){
$rows[] = $r;
}
}
print json_encode($rows);
?>
