Problem :( HELP!

[мϊкэ]

my news system worked perfectly fine yesterday right but now its stopped working i get this error on show_news.php

Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/xenigmac/public_html/members/news/show_news.php on line 5

here is lines 1 - 7 on show_news.php

<? 
 include("db.php");//the database connection file 
$getnews = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM extreme_news ORDER BY id DESC"); 
 
while($r=mysql_fetch_array($getnews)){ 
extract($r);

and here is the mysql query

CREATE TABLE `extreme_news` (
`id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`title` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '',
`user` varchar(22) NOT NULL default '',
`date` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '0000-00-00',
`message` text NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) TYPE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=1;

what is wrong :@

while($r = mysql_fetch_array($getnews)){

could be that... not sure.. but if it worked yesterday it will be a problem with the database..

something strange was happening when i was viewing the page on its not in an include it was fine but viewing it on an include wouldnt work without the full url for some reason :s but it works now, i just want to add a few things to the stats box now, is there a code which can display how many files there are in a certain directory?
