I've looked at every document I can find in books and on the web, and still
can't seem to solve this problem. Here is what I have.
$Learned3 = mysql_query ("SELECT count(*) from cs_studentsurvey where
LearnedSchoolProgram='I didn't learn very much'");
$Learned3results = mysql_fetch_row( $Learned3 );
print( $Learned3results[0] );
and I am getting this error.
Warning: 0 is not a MySQL result index in ../count.php3 on line 134
The problem seems to be with the apostrophe. I've looked up stripslashes(),
but can't find any documentation that will actually tell me how to use it.
