Or use a function like mysql_fetch_assoc instead:
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
print $row['id']; // with id being a column name

print $row['name'];

A function also controls this behavior within scripts,
it's appropriatly named error_reporting()

Or just use mysql_fetch_assoc(). Regarding extract(), if this is the

This assumption is incorrect, these are just variables that most likely
contain unwanted whitespace, such as a \n. Consider using trim()
beforehand.
Maybe I misunderstand your question. Also, no need for "" when printing

Your $categoryarry is a 2d array, try :
print_r($categoryarry);
But, I think you want to do :
$categories = array('Sasheen','Tom','Fred');
Now, if you do this :
while(list($key,$value) = each($categories)) {
print "$key : $value\n";
}
You'll get :
0 : Sasheen
1 : Tom
2

hi friends,
Can someone post here "the" most efficient method to validate a variable
as numeric? I see a ton of hacks/ways in the manual user comments under
is_int, is_integer and is_numeric and would like to see just one or two
good solid ones. And please, no regular expressions :)

About the simplest way to accomplish what you want is :
\newlines don't show up in browser but will in the source, check your html
source and see how pretty it is (full of newlines).
Here's an example :
$string = "a\nb\nc\n";
print $string;(newlines in source)
print nl2br($st
in length';
}
Allowing spaces in $string is easy as : [a-z0-9 ]
Also, some good variable and string functions exist :
variables : http://php.net/manual/en/ref.var.php
strings : http://php.net/manual/en/ref.strings.php

Also keep in mind that sometimes spaces find their ways into the string
and using trim() will get rid of them. Something like :
if (strcasecmp('neo',trim($name)) == 0) {
echo 'You chose our Neo line of goods, way to go!';
}
Not to say spaces randomly attach to strings :-) but to be saf

Hi Kyle,
Yes, one such ultimate tutorial exists, it's called the PHP Manual. It's
large and nice and contains many examples and user comments. If you find
it scary, try out some less ultimate tutorials first. Go through the
tutorials on devshed.com phpbuilder.com zend.com and related places,
Please everyone, stop talking about this it's getting old. If you have
issues with a list member, take it off the list. We, your fellow list
members, don't want to hear about it.
Publically making fun of someone isn't cool but rather, it's stupid.

A couple possible reasons :
1. Mixing \n and
\n won't create a newline within your browser but rather it will within
your html source code. Meaning, look at your html source and notice the
newlines.
2. Using single quotes
echo '\n'; will literally print '\n', in otherwords, it won't be

Maybe you should just install a package, much easier. Check out :
http://hotscripts.com/PHP/Scripts_and_Programs/Installation_Kits/
phpTriad and nusphere are popular, as are others. Once it's setup play
with the configurations, etc. Usually mysql/apache/php will be installed.

See what this does within your code :
$count = mysql_result($result,0);
Should give you your count (number of users in db). Btw, don't escape
single quotes in double quotes. In otherwords, the following is fine :
$string = "I'm a nice string";
