Hi, from this command line test: > select imglocation,height,width from img where imgname='alfstag1' it looks to me like your imgname field is *characters* rather than *numbers*. when ever I'm doing something like this (eg WHERE firstName="justin"), I do it with a LIKE statement, rather than with a "=". example: $query = "SELECT imglocation,height,width FROM img WHERE imgname LIKE \"$getimg\""; So, I'd recommend giving that a try. From my understanding (limited) of MySQL, use = in the case of $id=2, and LIKE in the case of firstName LIKE "justin". Justin French
