I tried that, too... then I do: $userarr = $board[9]; Then later down the page, I try to put that into an array, like so: print array($userarr); or even: $userarr2 = array($userarr); And they all just print: "Array" ... and the column value would have, say: "Webmaster, LinkChecker, Strategist" and I want to put that into an array, then use in_array to check if their user rank is one of the ones in the required user rank column... but I can never get the above column in a array to do that!
