What am I doing wrong? Hi Brian, That means that your result set is empty, so you are actually trying to fetch a "row" that does not exist. You have an error on your SQL query, since as far as I know, you should write $sql = "SELECT * FROM games WHERE genre=$gameone_genre AND number=$gameone_number"; Also, if the column named "genre" is a CHAR or VARCHAR, you should quote the query like this $sql = "SELECT * FROM games WHERE genre='$gameone_genre' AND number=$gameone_number"; Regards, Joao -- Joao Prado Maia Web Developer Kefta, Inc.
