Hi, I am new to this site and relatively new to PHP, so I would be grateful of any help. I have the following code: $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM resource"); echo "<table border='1'> <tr> <th>ID</th> <th>Name</th> <th>Description</th> <th>Click on this link</th> </tr>"; while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo "<tr>"; echo "<td>" . $row['resource_id'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['name_of_resource'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['description'] . "</td>"; echo "<td>" . $row['resource_name_path'] . "</td>"; //echo "<td>".'<a href="../../8_resources/Mystical Creatures Database.mdb">'.$row['hyperlink_resource_name'].'</a>'."</td>"; echo "<td>".'<a href="'.$row['resource_name_path.'].'">'.$row['hyperlink_resource_name'].'</a>'."</td>"; echo "</tr>"; } echo "</table>"; mysql_close($con); It outputs resource information from a table. However, the a href hyperlink bit doesn't work - when I click on it, it doesn't throw up an error, just takes me to an index of files page and lists the file names on the site instead of opening the above database, called 'Mystical Creatures Database.mdb. Is there something wrong with the code?
