Ron Ron Piggott www.TheVerseOfTheDay.info -------------------------------------------- You can do this echo $row['Bible_knowledge_phrase_solver_game_question_topics_'.$i]; I would not suggest a variable name that long. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
