[PHP-DB] mysql_result
I'm trying to use mysql_result to extract data from one particular field in a record. So I suppose the most viable solution is to use mysql_result. But when I do this: $sqlstmt="SELECT * FROM dept WHERE shortname=$shortname"; $result=mysql_query($sqlstmt); $temp=mysql_result($result,0,"shortname"); -- This will give me an error Did I do anything wrong here?

I've tried what you suggested and it works, thanks. Russ Michell wrote: Try: $sqlstmt="SELECT * FROM dept WHERE shortname='$shortname'"; //Include single quotes..

Re: [PHP-DB] mysql_result
That didn't quite work, I tried using single quote enclose within double quotes and it works. $sqlstmt="SELECT * FROM dept WHERE shortname='$shortname'"; Thanks anyway ben wrote: On Tue, 20 Mar 2001, Shahmat Dahlan wrote: I'm trying to use mysql_result to extract data from one particular field in a record.

Thanks in advance. Shahmat The problem is that the query is wrong.
