You said you get a parse error - so I'm assuming that is a PHP parse error,
not an SQL error. Can you attach the entire problem file to an e-mail and
send it to me, along with the exact error message? I have a feeling that it
is something to do with the way you are retrieving the results in your P

You should not need the extra semicolon in there to complete the SQL
statement. All you need is the one at the end.

Cecily,
I'm sure you probably heard from others about your parse error. I know
it looks weird, but you need to have two semicolons, so instead of:

> "FROM artists, album_titles WHERE artist_id = aid");
you would have
$CDList =mysql_q
SELECT artist_name, album_title FROM album_titles LEFT JOIN artist
USING(aid) WHERE artist_id = aid

Cecily,
I think yuo need to specify the fields within the tables when you write
out a select query from multiple tables like this.
For example:
"SELECT artist_name.*, album_title.* ".
"FROM artists, album_titles WHERE artist_name.artist_id = aid");
Hope this works,
