It would be nice if you could post the error so we can see where it's occurring.. You should also use php tags next time.

 

edit:

 

Does this look right to you?

 

echo "$row2[friend]echo "<form method=post action=http://www.solent.edward.ac.uk/~FoshRachel/dissertation/otherprofile.php?friend=$row2[friend]><input name=Profile View input type=submit value=Go></form>";<br/>";

 

You can't combine two echos like that.

 

echo "$row2[friend]<form method=post action=http://www.solent.edward.ac.uk/~FoshRachel/dissertation/otherprofile.php?friend=$row2[friend]><input name=Profile View input type=submit value=Go></form><br/>";

The first thing I noticed - you can't echo arrays with out { } around them.  I.E. whenever you access $row['somevalue'] in a string you need it to be {$row['somevalue']}.

If you're inside of double quotes you can use echo array values like that as long as you don't use single quotes around the keys.
