In my phpadmin, I have something called: "Table comments". Can I acccess this somehow? Can't find it in the function database.I've tried this since, but can't get syntax right: <?php $myconnection = mysql_pconnect("localhost","",""); mysql_select_db("",$myconnection); $rows = mysql_query("SHOW TABLE STATUS from MyTable LIKE Comment"); echo "$rows"; ?> I'm still new to this. A post & reply would be appreciated, Thanks, John
