MySQL online connection

[elitecodex]

I cant provide that much help because you really didnt explain the problem. Basically, once you get the connection, you select your database, run a query against it, and use mysql_fetch_array or similar function to obtain the results. Here is a good place to start with the basics:
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/programming/php/tutorials/tutorial4.html and of course, the PHP site: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mysql.php. Best of luck with those. If you have any other problems, try showing some example code or being more specific, and I would be more than willing to attempt to help.

{
$data=mysql_fetch_array($query);
$echo($data['somes']);
}
?>

Pejone: Not meaning to be picky, I thought perhaps this would be a more suitable alternative to your loop as it's neater and more efficient

Code: Select all

$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `table`", $link);
while ($data = mysql_fetch_array($query)) print $data['somes'];


It's essentially the same code, just smaller and neater.
