slj90 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 I have some code that selects one column from mysql table. However when I try to add more it doesn't work. First the working code.... $query = "SELECT `profile_privacy` FROM `users` WHERE `user_username` = '$username'"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die($query."<br/><br/>".mysql_error()); $profile_privacy = mysql_result($result, 0); And here is where I have added another column.... $query = "SELECT `profile_privacy`, `profile_pictures` FROM `users` WHERE `user_username` = '$username'"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die($query."<br/><br/>".mysql_error()); $profile_privacy = mysql_result($result, 0); $profile_pictures = mysql_result($result, 1); What have I done wrong?Many thanks, Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/288516-select-multiple-columns/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Ch0cu3r Posted May 15, 2014 Solution Share Posted May 15, 2014 You need call mysql_result like this $profile_privacy = mysql_result($result, 0, 0); $profile_pictures = mysql_result($result, 0, 1); BUT you should stop using the mysql_* libraries as these are deprecated functions, which means they are no longer maintained/supported and could soon be removed from future versions of PHP. Instead you should convert your code over to PDO or MySQLi Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/288516-select-multiple-columns/#findComment-1479576 Share on other sites More sharing options...
