Re: problem that has been really annoying me...

First of all check this: print(stripslashes("$num[sub]")); ... should be... print(stripslashes($num['sub'])); That will change the result, but I don't know if it's the result you're going for... One other note of interest... why is your variable named $num? If it was supposed to be a significant number I would understand, but as far as I can tell, it's not... so you might consider changing this to be a little more descriptively named ;) --Toby ----- Original Message ----- From: <PeterOblivion@aol.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net> Sent: Monday, January 15, 2001 12:21 PM Subject: [PHP] problem that has been really annoying me... > I have a problem which i dont know how to solve.... > > my script... > $game = "roguespear"; > $title = "quepasa??mecasa..."; > $num = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM DLtemplates WHERE id='$game'"); > $num =mysql_fetch_array($num); > print(stripslashes("$num[sub]")); > > what sub in DLtemplates where id=$game = $title > > so why does it print > $title on the screen and not "quepasa??mecasa..."; > > any help apprecaited > > - Peter > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net > >
