I'm working with MySQL database and I wonder if it's possible to set a type for a generated field in this way: $sql= "SELECT AVG(figures) AS avgfigure FROM table"; $result = mysql_query($sql); $row = mysql_fetch_array($result); settype($row[avgfigure], "integer"); echo $row[avgfigure]; It seemed it didn't work out. Could someone tell me a reason? Hans.
