Sorry, I am not fully understanding the problem. Perhaps it is because I am reading this post on my mobile phone.

Are you getting an error message in the log file? If so, please post it? Or are you seeing an HTML formatting issue?

OBTW (back on my desktop computer), this statement does not look right, or it is not how I would write it:

PHP Code:
$query "SELECT venue, SUM(amount) FROM IWD WHERE venue='$sel_venue'"
I would write this:

PHP Code:
$query "SELECT venue, SUM(amount) FROM IWD WHERE venue=".$sel_venue
or

PHP Code:
$query "SELECT venue, SUM(amount) FROM IWD WHERE venue=$sel_venue"
in PHP, single quotes means "take what is inside literally and do not expand". Double quotes means "expand the variables inside". When you mix single and double quotes (inside each other) you can have huge problems in PHP.

Better for this, and considered the least confusing is:

PHP Code:
$query 'SELECT venue, SUM(amount) FROM IWD WHERE venue='.$sel_venue
The reason for this is that 'SELECT venue, SUM(amount) FROM IWD WHERE venue=' does not require any variable expansion inside the single quotes.

mysqlnd_uh_set_connection_proxy - Installs a proxy for mysqlnd connections

SYNOPSIS
bool mysqlnd_uh_set_connection_proxy (MysqlndUhConnection &$connection_proxy, [mysqli &$mysqli_connection]) DESCRIPTION
Installs a proxy object to hook mysqlnd's connection objects methods. Once installed, the proxy will be used for all MySQL connections opened with mysqli, mysql or PDO_MYSQL, assuming that the listed extensions are compiled to use the mysqlnd library. The function can be disabled with mysqlnd_uh.enable. If mysqlnd_uh.enable is set to FALSE the function will not install the proxy and always return TRUE. Additionally, an error of the type E_WARNING may be emitted. The error message may read like PHP Warning: mysqlnd_uh_set_connection_proxy(): (Mysqlnd User Handler) The plugin has been disabled by setting the configuration parameter mysqlnd_uh.enable = false. The proxy has not been installed [...]. PARAMETERS
o $connection_proxy - A proxy object of type MysqlndUhConnection. o $mysqli_connection - Object of type mysqli. If given, the proxy will be set for this particular connection only. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success. Otherwise, returns FALSE EXAMPLES
Example #1 mysqlnd_uh_set_connection_proxy(3) example <?php $mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "root", "", "test"); $mysqli->query("SELECT 'No proxy installed, yet'"); class proxy extends MysqlndUhConnection { public function query($res, $query) { printf("%s(%s) ", __METHOD__, var_export(func_get_args(), true)); $ret = parent::query($res, $query); printf("%s returns %s ", __METHOD__, var_export($ret, true)); return $ret; } } mysqlnd_uh_set_connection_proxy(new proxy()); $mysqli->query("SELECT 'mysqlnd rocks!'"); $mysql = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "", "test"); mysql_query("SELECT 'Ahoy Andrey!'", $mysql); $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=localhost;dbname=test", "root", ""); $pdo->query("SELECT 'Moin Johannes!'"); ?> The above example will output: proxy::query(array ( 0 => NULL, 1 => 'SELECT 'mysqlnd rocks!'', )) proxy::query returns true proxy::query(array ( 0 => NULL, 1 => 'SELECT 'Ahoy Andrey!'', )) proxy::query returns true proxy::query(array ( 0 => NULL, 1 => 'SELECT 'Moin Johannes!'', )) proxy::query returns true SEE ALSO
