"problem solved" (?)

Thanks very much, Curt. I assumed (stupid me) that I needed to configure PHP 5 for mysqli but this was nonsense since I am using version 4.0 of MySQL. Now I use php_mysql.dll in C:\PHP and only remove the ; from ;extension=php_mysql.dll in php.ini. Sorry to have bothered you all with this. ! Still the problem remains that there is no mysqli equivalent for mysql_field_name Regards, Mark "Curt Zirzow" <php-general@zirzow.dyndns.org> schreef in bericht news:20040804163141.GL6522@bagend.shire... > * Thus wrote Mark: > > I use MySQL: C:\mysql\bin>mysqladmin version status proc > > C:\MYSQL\BIN\MYSQLA~1.EXE Ver 8.40 Distrib 4.0.20a, for Win95/Win98 on i32 > > Copyright (C) 2000 MySQL AB & MySQL Finland AB & TCX DataKonsult AB > > This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

No, sir. Our model is the trapezoid!
