Hi! I'd just like to ask a "simple"(but not for me) question....


I'm kinda confused with this variable called $myrow, where do these
$myrow[#] came from? does it only make sense if it was declared as
$myrow[], or $myrow[4]... etc...??

thanks for those who will be glad to help.

Sure it's for you too, as YOU are asking the question, and not whomever the other person "may be"...

But anyway, the variable $myrow becomes an array, as returned from the function mysql_fetch_row(). The $result is a "result row", returned as an enumerated array, from a known query, so the indexes correspond to the columns in the results.

So, as arrays are zero-indexed, $myrow[0] relates to column0 (the first column) in $result, $myrow[1] to column1 (the second column) in $result, and continues through $myrow[N] to columnN in $result.

problem solved. thanks dude

Also, take a look at the function: mysql_fetch_array(), as it allows the variable to be indexed with either a number -- as used in the first post, OR the field name itself (case-sensitive, though) within quotes (double or single -- I've seen both used).

There are examples at the link provided, above.
