easier solution:
while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
print \ttr\n\t\ttd.$line['first_name'].\n\t/tr\n;
}

Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] MySQL Query Weirdness
When you use mysql_fetch_array you're actually retrieving an array with
two copies of the value you're looking for. One is indexed by the column
number and one indexed by the column name. So it looks like you're
looping through them both and printing each out. You might want
mysql_fetch_assoc (to use just the column name) or mysql_fetch_row (to
use just the column number)

Hello,
I'm new at this php/mysql stuff, so go easy on my guys.
I've got my query script up and working, but the problem is I'm getting
the
same column printed twice on the html output. Here is the output:
Connected successfully
Chris Chris
Mark Mark
Mike Mike
Dee Dee
etc...
Here is my .php script:
?php
$link = mysql_connect(localhost, dbuser,dbpassword)
or die (Could not connect);
print (Connected successfully);
mysql_select_db (dapscores) or die (Could not select database);
$query = SELECT first_name FROM overall_results;
$result = mysql_query ($query) or die (Query failed);
// printing HTML result
print table\n;
while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
print \ttr\n;
while(list($col_name, $col_value) = each($line)) {
print \t\ttd$col_value/td\n;
}
print \t/tr\n;
}
print /table\n;
mysql_close($link);
?
Here is my database layout:
mysql describe overall_results;
+---+-+--+-+-+---+
| Field | Type| Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+---+-+--+-+-+---+
| Match_Date| date| YES | | NULL| |
| Place | varchar(10) | YES | | NULL| |
| Last_Name | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL| |
| First_Name| varchar(20) | YES | | NULL| |
| USPSA | varchar(10) | YES | | NULL| |
| Class | char(3) | YES | | NULL| |
| Division | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL| |
| PF| varchar(7) | YES | | NULL| |
| Lady | char(3) | YES | | NULL| |
| Mil | varchar(4) | YES | | NULL| |
| Law | varchar(4) | YES | | NULL| |
| F0r | char(3) | YES | | NULL| |
| Age | varchar(20) | YES | | NULL| |
| Match_Pts | float | YES | | NULL| |
| Match_percent | float | YES | | NULL| |
+---+-+--+-+-+---+
If I run the query from mysql, it works fine, just the HTML output
shows
the double column thing. Is this a database problem? I've tried
different
variations of my script and I get the same output each time.
Thanks
