Subject: [PHP-DB] Display results of SUM of an colomn


Hello Everybody,

I'am a new php and mysql user, I have already build a database with 4
coloms.
Now I want to display the sum of all values of 1 of these coloms, I want to 
display it within PHP.
Has anyone an example how to display an result of 1 colom, I can't get it
work.

With kind regards,


Mark Weber
