Re: Unique Names for Variable in Loop

or you can forget about keeping track of the indexes and just use array_push or the even simpler $names[]=$row['lastname']; Jim Moseby wrote:

I must be brain dead today since I can't get my syntax correct. Simple MySQL query to return a list of last_name. No problem. Each last name returned needs to be assigned to a unique variable like name1, name2, name3, etc.

How about $names[1], $names[2], $names[3]? JM

To expand a bit: $index=0; while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result)){ $names[$index]=$row['lastname']; $index++; } JM
