Re: How to display field after MySQL join.

Hi Everyone, I'm trying to display the content of two mysql tables on a single page, I have successfully joined them with the following statement. $query = "SELECT serv.*, cat.* FROM site_services AS serv, site_servicescat AS cat WHERE serv.servicescat_id = cat.servicescat_id AND serv.theme_id = $DomainTheme AND serv.status = 1 ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 3";

you can do select name.cat as cname, name.serv as sname which would give $row['cname'] and $row['sname'] or you could use the numeric indexes ($row[0], $row[1] etc) or use print_r($row) to see the array contents in detail

This works great but my problem is I have a field in each table called "title", if I use the normal function of $row[title] I get field from the "site_services" table but I cannot work out how to get the "site_servicescat" title field. I have tried $row[cat.title] but all I get is errors. Any help would be really appreciated as I think it's just me missing something basic. Thanks Stephen
