i noticed this by mistake... [i've only been doing php for a while so bare that in my mind] you can just do something like $result = mysql_fetch_assoc("SELECT * FROM myTbl WHERE userId = $id"); <?=$result["userName"]?>; previously i'd been doing this in two steps: $query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM myTbl WHERE userId = $id"); $result = mysql_fetch_assoc($query); <?=$result["userName"]?>; because i thought that was how it had to be done... weird. any thoughts? eg. speed differences between the two? thanks, Neill
