PHP+ postgresql help?

Hey I'm new to php and using databases. I've setup a postgres server and have already populated the database. I'm able to connect the the server just fine with php my problem is showing the results. Can somebody show me a easy to understand example. For example. I've got a address book database setup. I want to be able to search for first names. I'm using $conn = pg_connect ("host=localhost user=username password=password bname=dbname"); I then have a sql statement setup as such $sql = "SELECT * FROM database where lower('$name%') order by last;"; I then execute the sql statement pg_Exec ($conn, $sql); Now I want to be able to diplay the results on a page no tables or forms just a simple output I'll work on layout later. I've trying to do so using. pg_result. If anybody could help me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks guys. -Smileyq
