You are missing quite a bit there - $rsum is merely a pointer to the data. Look at http://www.php.net/mysql_fetch_assoc which has an example of how to connect to mysql, issue a query and display the results of the query. Also, you might find http://www.php.net/extract useful in future. -- David Robley Temporary Kiwi!
