Re: query question

sorry I wasn't very clear, I do not actually want to delete anything from the database, I need to remove some of the query elements before it is used elsewhere (before fetch array ect), but I cannot alter the way the select query works.

Or does anyone have any idea of how $result is generally structured when mysql_query($query) is run. thanks -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-db-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-db-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
