Hi, You need to loop through the returned recordset and use the returned result(s). Instead of: $admin_get_options_result = mysql_fetch_assoc($admin_get_options_results_reference); Try: While ($admin_get_options_result = mysql_fetch_assoc($admin_get_options_results_reference)){ echo "<p> The api# ".$admin_get_options_result["adminpageid"]." allows you to ".$admin_get_options_result["description"].", and uses the file ".$admin_get_options_result["filename"]."</p>"; } Mysql_free_result($admin_get_options_results_reference); Hope this helps...
