Hello All, I am trying to return the largest id for a table and then print the value to a page. My query works fine in MySQL, the problem is getting the value to show in a web page with php. This is what I am trying to process.
TABLEID | VALUE 1 | Test 2 | Test 2 3 | Test 3 In the sample table above I am trying to pull back a value of 3 and print to a web page via php. $maxid = "select max(tableid) from table as largestid"; // db_connect is my database connection. I know this works because I have other pages that return // results based on my queries without any problems $run_query = ($maxid,$db_connect); This is were I get a bit lost. I have tried using all sorts of various mysql functions without success $row = mysql_fetch_row($run_query); $mymaxidvalue = $row[0]; echo $mymaxidvalue; As I stated above I have tried many different ways to get the desired results but have been unsuccessful. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jason -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
