I am trying to find the best way to combine 2 columns in a MySQL Db call into one by using an array. I’ve tried array_push, implode, explode, array_merge and extract all with no luck. I feel I am close but have read all I can and still am hitting a dead end. I need to select a Title and Alternate title from a table, and then list the results by BOTH the Title and Alternate Title. So the list that gets echoed out would be a combined array of the Title column and the Alt_Title column. The idea is to have each item listed twice, once by it’s title and once by it’s alternate title. I can not find a way to merge the 2 separate columns. Here’s what I’m trying to do: $result = mysql_query("SELECT Title, Alt_Title, Size, Price, More, Comment ORDER BY title"); //magically combine the title & alt_title into on nice variable called $Title //or whatever while ($db = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo “$Title”; }
