A quick rewrite of your code: <?php $conn = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass); if (!$conn) { echo 'Could not connect: '. mysql_error(); exit; } mysql_select_db($dbname); $sql = "SELECT * FROM members"; $result = mysql_query($sql); if (!$result) { echo 'Could not run Query: '. mysql_error(); exit; } while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC)) { extract($row); print "$ircname, $email, $realname, $asl, $info <br>"; } ?> Your question was how to print the query, in this case you'd just print $sql. That was the point of the above but I got a bit carried away :) Oh, mysql_error() can be very useful for debugging. Regarding the type resource, have a look here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.resource.php Regards, Philip Olson On Fri, 4 Jan 2002, louie miranda wrote: > Hi, is it possible to print the sql query? i mean > i want to print the output of the command "SELECT * FROM members;" > and output it into html, i tried > > print $result; -- it gives me different output.. > > > Resource id #2 > > > ty, > louie... > > # PHP SCRIPT ############################################### > > <html> > <body> > > <?php > > $db = mysql_connect("my_db_host", "my_db_user", "my_db_pass") > or die("Could not connect"); > > mysql_select_db("cavite",$db); > > $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members",$db) or > die("Error:".mysql_error() > ); > > printf("ircname: %s<br>", mysql_result($result,0,"ircname")); > printf("email: %s<br>", mysql_result($result,0,"email")); > printf("realname: %s<br>", mysql_result($result,0,"realname")); > printf("asl: %s<br>", mysql_result($result,0,"asl")); > printf("info: %s<br>", mysql_result($result,0,"info")); > > print "<br><br>"; > > ?> > > </body> > > </html> > > # PHP SCRIPT ############################################### > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
