Well, I have this:

$result=mysql_query('SELECT * FROM $table ORDER BY surname, street, housenumber ASC');

while ($row=mysql_fetch_assoc($result))
{ 
   echo $row['surname'].' '.$row['firstname'].' '.$row['housenumber'].' 
'.$row['street'];
}

and I get "Warning: mysql_fetch_assoc(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result 
resource in /home/.fanny/pjh/4seasonsatmapleton.org/4sam/directory/showForm-mod.php on 
line 26"

Line 26 is the while statement.

????

Thanks.
