  1. I needed to pass the ID to the variable $uid.  That was my original issue/question.  Fixed and working now, code below.  Thanks!

     

    $q = 'SELECT id FROM users WHERE email = ?';
    $stmt = mysqli_prepare($dbc, $q);
    mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $email);
    mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
    mysqli_stmt_store_result($stmt);
    $rows = mysqli_stmt_num_rows($stmt);

    if ($rows === 1) {
    mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $uid);

    /* fetch value */

    mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt);

  2. In chapter 12, we're presented code to update example #1 to use prepared statements.  For some reason, in the forgot_password.php file, there was one statement where Larry didn't supply the code to update.  Was there a reason for this?  Thanks.

     

    // Check for the existence of that email address...
    $q = 'SELECT id FROM users WHERE email="' . escape_data($email, $dbc) . '"';
    $r = mysqli_query($dbc, $q);

    if (mysqli_num_rows($r) === 1) { // Retrieve the user ID:
    list($uid) = mysqli_fetch_array($r, MYSQLI_NUM);
    } else { // No database match made.
    $pass_errors['email'] = 'The submitted email address does not match those on file!';
    }
