Hi,

Hope everyone forgives a rookie question. I am very new to PHP and are 
just starting to use it in the developments of my web components. I have 
been using MySQL for about two years now and love it.

The question I had was one of syntax. I am trying to echo out a lists of 
sections, districts, and buildings. All of these are in their own tables. 
My problem comes up with "$Section = $row[Name];". The tables I have are 
the following with the field 'Name' appearing in each table:

`section`.`Name`
`district`.`Name`
`building`.`Name`

Then I have:

$Section = $row[Name];
$Building = $row[Name];

See my problem? "Name" is the same field name in two different tables. I 
tried to do something like:

$Section = $row[`section`.`Name`];

As you can imagine when I echo that out all I get is $Building. Am I 
missing some basic syntax, or is there a better methodology that I should 
be utilizing?

If anyone wouldn't mind helping out a rookie I'd much appreciate it. 
Thanks!

PS: Further down my query I do have several LEFT JOIN's that link up the 
tables based upon their keys (`section`.`Section_Num`, etc.)
