This may be a dumb question, but did you actually fetch the db query's results and put them in $row before trying to use $row? In MySQL you could do something like: $query = "select * from my_table"; $result = mysql_query($query); $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); //this statement would need to be inside of a loop if there is more than one result -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
