If the query is non-empty, you should have no problem in fetching the
results with the standard mysql functions. Why were you even bothering
with mysqli? Look for mysql_query, mysql_fetch_assoc, and
mysql_fetch_array in www.php.net. They are all you need.

What I regularly use most is:

$theArray = array();
$result = mysql_query("The query text");
if (FALSE !== $result) {
while ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result) {
$theArray[] = $row;
}
}

if (count($theArray)) {
.....
}


You could even put the query into your database class as a
getArray($query) method.
