Hi, After asking for help on the list Skate gave me the following code as an example: ************** $n = 0; $result = mysql_query( "SELECT id, title, text, date FROM news ORDER BY date DESC" ); while ($rows = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { if( $rows == "" ){ continue; } extract( $rows ); ///extract our result into variables named after our fields $content[id][$n] = $id; $content[title][$n] = $title; $content[text][$n] = $text; $content[date][$n] = $date; $n++; //increment our number for next time... } ************** My question is: is there anyway I can use a "select * from...." to do the same thing and then dump as usual to $content[id][$n] = $id; $content[title][$n] = $title; instead of a "select id, title, text, date" because in reality I don't have just these 4 fields but 43 fields in one table that have to be taken. "Select *..." seems a much easier way to get it....
Am a newbie at associative arrays so kindly excuse. Any suggestions/comments welcome or even links...I don't mind reading for the next 2 hours or so to get this working. Thanks, -Ryan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
