Simple query

[Perad]

I have "timer" in a table called button

timer has a number string in it. I want to request the number.

I know i have to start with

[code]require_once('mysql_connect.php');[/code]

Could someone give me the other 1-2 lines please. Thanks a lot.

This wouldn't hurt either:

You first need to establish a connection to the mysql server using mysql_connect(). Then you select the correct database using mysql_select_db() and execute your query using mysql_query(). Then process its return variable using functions like mysql_fetch_assoc(). Finally close the connection with mysql_close().
