Can you post the whole code you actually are using?
for a code like
function functionname($tablename) {
$query="SELECT * FROM ".$tablename;
$result=mysql_query($query);
while($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
/* do what you do */
}
}
will work fine, as long as the variable you use as an argument for the
function does have a value and that there is a such table in your database.
$thistable="a_table";
functionname($thistable);
