Change the single quote to a double quote: <code> $query = "SELECT * FROM `job listing` WHERE open >= '$today' LIMIT 0 , 30 "; </code>
This tells the PHP string parser to replace all declared, in-scope variables that are detected in a string with the value of the variable (as a toString() method, so a reference would not pass in the actual data, it would print something like "Resource id #3"). When you use single-quotes, you are telling the parser to keep it's hands off the string, and use "as-is". Example: <code> var $a = 'test'; var $b = 'test2'; var $c = '$a$b'; var $d = "$a$b"; var $e = $a.$b; </code> $e is equivalent to $d, where c would print literally $a$b, since you told the parser using the single quotes to leave the string alone. Likewise, var $f = $a."-$b$c-".'$e'; would print test-test2$a$b-$e; -- Jared Farrish Intermediate Web Developer Denton, Tx Abraham Maslow: "If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail." $$
