Re: $sring = ARRAY?

MYSQL_FETCH_ROW returns an array of the values of the columns in a row. When you try to use that value as, for example, a string or in a print statement you get the word Array. What you probably want to do is the following (not knowing your actual column names): if (($value = mysql_fetch_array($result)) AND ($value['username'] == $username)) { echo "You are authenticated"; } else { echo "Your username or password is incorrect"; } ----- Original Message ----- From: "Axiom" <axiom@vectorns.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Saturday, February 28, 2004 11:57 PM Subject: [PHP] $sring = ARRAY? Why is it that in the following code that $value comes back with just the word ‘ARRAY’ instead of the actual result? if (($value = mysql_fetch_row($result)) AND ($value == $username)) { echo "You are authenticated"; } else { echo "Your username or password is incorrect"; } -Casey --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
