Hello Chris, CS> Is it possible to concatenate a string and an element from a CS> mysql_fetch_assoc array? I haven't had much luck searching google. CS> Such as concatenating "results" with ' . $posts_row['store_tptest'] . CS> ' so that if there are no elements returned nothing will be displayed? if (!empty($posts_row['store_tptest'])) $str="results ".$posts_rows['store_tptest']; -- With best regards from Ukraine, Andre Skype: Francophile My blog: http://oire.org/menelion (mostly in Russian) Twitter: http://twitter.com/m_elensule Facebook: http://facebook.com/menelion -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
