i have a database and it randomly selects one piece of data from a table of quotes, but it will only print the quote when I include the row that it's picked with. I have my SELECT statement at $sql = "SELECT $dbrow FROM $dbtable ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 1"; and then to display the result $result = mysql_db_query($dbname, $sql) then in the code, print "<td> $result </td>"; what do i need to add? (the result is Resource id #3) thank you, Melih
