Hello Everyone,

I have a problem reusing variables.

This does not work (second query does not return any data):

$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);
...
$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);

These three combinations work fine (both queries return data):

$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);
...
$rs1 = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);
-----------------------------------------------------------
$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);
fbsql_free_result($rs);
...
$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);
-----------------------------------------------------------
$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);
$rs = null;
...
$rs = fbsql_query("select * from tuser;", $con);

Is this a feature or a bug ?
