thanks for your reply, that looks like exactly what I need. the reason I was rolling my own SQL is because i’m using amfphp to pull posts data into flash. being a wordpress noob, i’ve been reading up on The Loop, but i’m not sure how that would fit into the FlashPress amfphp service i’m using.

i’m doing it like this:
1. mysql_query
2. loop results, parse columns into a dataobject
3. return array of typed dataobject

which ends up being an array of typed data objects in flash/as3.

so, with that in mind, is there a way to do this type of syntax while still using query_posts?

while( ( $row = mysql_fetch_array( $result ) ) != false )

many thanks – trevor

solution:

if you’re using amfphp and you need access to wordpress, open up globals.php under amfphp and include wp-blog-header.php at the end of the file (right before “?>” )

example:
require_once “../wordpress/wp-blog-header.php”;

@whooami: thx for your help, and fyi, i searched my face off before posting. im a php noob, amfphp noob and wordpress noob (but not a programming noob) so i probably wasn’t using the right terms.

thanks. i had tried this but get an error:

Fatal error: Call to a member function set_prefix() on a non-object in /Users/thartman/Sites/wordpress/wp-settings.php on line 255

any ideas? or links to other forums? thx – trevor
